Ravens Kicker Justin Tucker Nails 75-Yard FG at Pro Bowl Practice

Kyle NewportJan 25, 2017

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker is more than deserving of his Pro Bowl nod.

In recent seasons, Tucker has made a strong case as the best kicker in the league. He went 38-of-39 (97.4 percent) on field-goal attempts this season and a perfect 27-of-27 on extra-point attempts. Not bad considering this was a year to forget for most kickers.

The regular season was apparently just child's play for the Baltimore veteran.

On Wednesday afternoon in Orlando, Tucker showed off his range by nailing a 75-yard field goal in practice. Seventy. Five. Yards. In other words, 11 yards farther than the NFL record.

Tucker is a solid 28-of-40 in his career from 50-plus yards, including a career long of 61 yards. A practice kick is quite different than an in-game one, but should the Ravens ever need three points late in a game, it's got to be nice to know their kicker has serious range.

UPDATE: Saturday, Jan. 28, at 12:35 p.m. ET

Matt Prater couldn't let Tucker enjoy his moment.

The Detroit Lions kicker, who holds the NFL record for the longest field goal (64 yards) in an actual game, one-upped Tucker with a 76-yard conversion Saturday morning:
