Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant is a damn fine football player. As NFL kickers go, he’s the bee’s knees. If Bryant could continue at his current pace into his 60s, I’m sure the team would have him. But at some point, all football players start to regress, right? That’s the conventional logic when we’re talking about normal football players. But again, Bryant isn’t normal.
Bryant may be a 42 year old man, but he’s crushing the football in 2017. He’s knocked down 6 of 7 50+ yard attempts and 7 of 8 40+ yard attempts this season.
