Atlanta Falcons alumnus and kicker extraordinaire Mort Anderson scored a lot of points during his 25 year career. His kicking prowess rightfully landed him in the NFL Hall of Fame in 2015. When Mort finally hung up his kicking cleats, he held a lot of NFL records: most games played, most field goals, and most points, to name a few.
Currently Mort still holds the points record with 2,544. As Reddit user u/samalonson pointed out today, there’s a good chance that record is broken in 2018. New England Patriots kicker Adam Vinatieri is currently sitting at 2,487 points.
