- His availability for the game had been in doubt because of a calf injury suffered the previous Friday.
- Cleveland lost by one in Week 1 at Cincinnati after Szmyt missed a field goal and an extra point, prompting public calls for a change that the team declined.
- He answered in Week 2 by converting all of his kicks against the Ravens, including a 38-yard field goal.
- Szmyt won the job over veteran Dustin Hopkins during camp less than two weeks after his mother's death, and his winner knocked previously unbeaten Green Bay from the ranks.
