OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Before Baltimore Ravens standout Justin Tucker became the most accurate kicker in NFL history, he was a young, second-year player trying to deal with adversity.
In 2013, the Ravens lost to the Cleveland Browns, 14-6, and Tucker pushed both of his field-goal attempts -- from 44 and 50 yards -- wide right. He remembers the criticism and scrutiny intensifying quickly.
Tucker then received an email, which he still has pinned in his inbox a decade later.
