...its really too bad...hes prolly the only guy that could take that FG record from Prater...

66 yrds to win the game is just mind boggling.  That is completely amazing 

The Tucker FG should get much more attention

Ehhhh 1.2 million at 25. Maybe a littler more. I wouldn’t say that unless he invests extremely well. 

But he could sock it all away and earn on it without touching it, have a normal job with average salary and live normally, then retire very comfortably at 50-55…which is not bad at all.

Could be that’s what you meant.

Almost 3 mil

I think they just updated it...

...looks to be under $1.5M.  

Take out taxes, fees he may owe an agent, etc...will be lucky if he has $900k in the bank.

Not bad for 35 games and 73 attempts but he's gonna have to find work at some point -- maybe he gets another NFL shot.

Looks like he did OK at Houston wonder why they cut ties so quickly?

Probably should go work on his game in the lesser leagues to get the kinks out. Will get more opportunities since he has the leg talent just needs to work on consistency/mental aspects.

 

no hes damaged goods

 

no amount of practice can fix his mental fugs.  once he misses one, hes fuged

Must be very stressfull to be a successful kicker with that kind of pressure. The whole game or season may come down to one kick. Forget the word...how about stomach in knots.

Part of being an NFL kicker is being able to have the ability to make those kicks consistently. If you can't, you just aren't an NFL kicker.

As a few of us consistently said, including a fan of his college team, he was never an NFL kicker.

There are a number of bad nfl kickers.

Only a handful of good NFL kicker and then the  rest of the field.

If Zane misses a kick this week maybe we sign him back.  lol

I know you’re probably kidding but it’s not the worst idea. We can’t find kickers that can consistently make extra points and that includes Slye. The difference between Joey and all the other crap kickers we’ve brought in is he helps us on kickoffs.

    • Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?
    • Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade. 
    • Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
