Lions kicker Matt Prater perfectly fine with teams trying to ice him

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Call a timeout while Matt Prater is on the field, about to kick another field goal for the Detroit Lions. He doesn’t care. Try to get in his head by stopping play and making him potentially kick twice?

Not a problem.

He’s all for it. Bring it.

“I don’t mind when people ice me or I get a timeout called because then it gives me more time to focus, get the spot I really like, draw my line and get a dry kick, swinging your leg through the air,” Prater said.
