Scouting Report
Always seems focused and is uncommonly dependable up to 50 yards. Has a really solid technique and can adapt well to any on-field circumstance. Works hard, can handle a big workload and has improved with age. Occasionally loses concentration and execution on field goal attempts from mid-range and even on the rare extra point. While accurate on kickoffs, he doesn't really boom them.
Long Range Potential: Pro Bowl place-kicker.
