Jaguars kicker Cam Little hit a 68-yard field goal vs. the Raiders, breaking Justin Tucker’s 2021 record to set the longest in NFL history.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little scored a 68-yard field goal against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. It was a historic moment at the Allegiant Stadium, Nevada, as Little beat Justin Tucker's 66-yard field goal in 2021 to set the new record for the longest in NFL history.

But Cam Little's feat on Sunday was only the latest of his exploits with kicking in the NFL. He scored an even longer field goal in the preseason. He could have replaced Tucker on that list then, but preseason stats do not count in the NFL records.

The goal earned a spot on the NFL Hall of Fame and is the longest field goal ever scored in the NFL - regular and preseason combined.

Cam Little now holds the NFL record for the longest field goal in the game's history. But that's still two yards short of his kick against the preseason game against the Pittsburg Steelers.

Here's a video of that kick:
