Patriots Quarterback Says Harry Kane Could Try NFL Kicking

A public remark by Drake Maye pushed a speculative idea into the headlines by pointing to Kane’s set‑piece accuracy and calm under pressure as traits that could fit an NFL kicking role.

Overview

  • A Patriots quarterback publicly suggested at a Bayern training press conference that he would like to see Harry Kane try kicking in the NFL, drawing broad media attention to the idea.
  • Kane has previously said he could 'seriously' consider an NFL kicking career after his time at Bayern, but those comments were framed as a long‑term possibility rather than an immediate plan.
  • No formal approach, offer, or negotiation has been reported and Kane remains under contract with Bayern Munich through 2029.
  • Supporters point to Kane’s technique, long‑range striking and experience with high‑pressure penalty kicks as skills that could translate to field goals, extra points and kickoffs.
  • The story notes historical precedents of soccer players moving into kicking roles in American football and frames the proposal as intriguing publicity rather than a confirmed career change.
