NFL’s longest field goals ever, ranked after Cam Little’s 68- and 67-yard kicks

Cam Little stands alone in the NFL record books. The Jacksonville Jaguars drafted the kicker out of Arkansas with a sixth round pick when he was only 20 years old, and now at the end of his second pro season, he has the two longest kicks in NFL history.

NFL kickers are getting better and better, and Little is just a bit better than all of them when it come to nailing long kicks. Little hit a 68-yard-field goal in Nov., then hit a 67-yard field goal in the regular season finale for the Jags. Little also hit a 70-yarder in a preseason game to start this year, but that doesn’t count in the record books.

The latest example comes to us courtesy of Cam Little of the Jacksonville Jaguars. In a game that has lacked offensive firepower, the Las Vegas Raiders took a 6-0 lead on a touchdown pass from Geno Smith to Brock Bowers with just 35 seconds remaining in the first half.

But that was all that Little and the Jaguars needed to get on the scoreboard.

Bhayshul Tuten returned the ensuing kickoff 30 yards to the Jacksonville 31-yard line, giving the Jaguars hope of salvaging points before halftime. After a short completion gained just a yard, Trevor Lawrence connected with Parker Washington for an 18-yard gain to get Jacksonville right to midfield.

But the clock was running, and the Jaguars were out of timeouts.

Lawrence managed to get the offense lined up, and spiked the ball with five second left. Rather than attempt a Hail Mary, Liam Coen called on Little to try a 68-yard field goal.

Little drilled it, setting a new NFL record in the process:

The 68-yard field goal sets the new standard in the NFL, topping the 66-yard field goal converted by Justin Tucker during the 2021 NFL season. As things stand, here are the longest field goals in NFL history:
