The Baltimore Ravens found a gem in kicker Justin Tucker when he signed with the team as an undrafted free agent in 2012. Nearly a decade later, he has proven to be the best in the NFL at his position and it shows whenever he lines up to make a kick.
On Tuesday, NFL Films released a video on Twitter asking current players if a kicker be on the “NFL Top 100” list. Many of which agreed that Tucker should get the respect and be placed on the list, potentially teasing that he has a place on the 2022 rankings.

Last season. Tucker had a field goal percentage of 94.6%. In 37 total field goal attempts, he drilled 35 of them, including a record-breaking game-winning 66-yard field goal in Week 3 against the Lions in Detroit. Tucker also currently holds the title for most accurate NFL kicker of all-time, making 91.1% of his kicks through ten seasons.
Tucker rarely misses on his field goal attempts, and is nearly perfect on extra points during his NFL career, which are just a few of the things that make him so unique. He has an extremely powerful leg while also having incredible accuracy, which are part of the reason why many expect him to enter the Hall of Fame once he’s eligible.
Give him his flowers ‼️ https://t.co/57kOIlev0I
