Packers Timeout Erases Evan McPherson’s 67-Yard Make as Retry Falls Short

The wiped-off kick kept Justin Tucker’s 66-yard mark atop the record book.

Overview

  • Packers coach Matt LaFleur called timeout just before the snap on Cincinnati’s final play of the first half.
  • McPherson’s initial 67-yard try hit the crossbar and went through, but the play was nullified.
  • The re-kick came up short and was returned by Keisean Nixon, marking McPherson’s first miss of the 2025 season.
  • Cincinnati reached halftime scoreless with only 65 yards of offense and a 10-0 deficit instead of narrowing the gap.
  • The moment punctuated McPherson’s rebound start after a 2024 slump in which he converted 72 percent of field goals.
