Overview

  • Cam Little drilled a 70-yard field goal against the Pittsburgh Steelers in preseason Week 1 at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville.
  • The kick would have surpassed Justin Tucker’s 66-yard regular-season record but does not count toward NFL records because preseason stats are ineligible.
  • Jaguars coach Liam Coen, who has seen Little hit 72-yard kicks in practice, said the demonstration may lead to more 60-plus-yard field-goal attempts and adjusted fourth-down calls.
  • Holder Logan Cooke and special-teams coordinator Heath Farwell praised Little’s mechanics and core-driven power, highlighting advances in kicker training and support staff collaboration.
  • Little, who made 27 of 29 field goals as a rookie last season including five of six from 50-plus yards, said evolving training and biomechanics make 70-plus-yard kicks in regular-season games increasingly feasible.
