Overview

• Jacksonville sent Cam Little onto the field as time expired in the second quarter of Saturday’s preseason opener at EverBank Stadium, where he converted a 70-yard field goal.
• Little’s boot would have eclipsed Justin Tucker’s 66-yard regular-season mark but cannot be recorded officially because it occurred in a preseason contest.
• The second-year kicker finished the half perfect on four field-goal attempts, building on his 27-for-29 rookie season performance.
• Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said Little requested the long attempt and credited the player’s confidence for the decision to try the unprecedented kick.
• Observers say the feat underscores a broader evolution in NFL kicking as teams grow more willing to test specialists from beyond 60 yards.
