There was a moment during the 2018 season in which Mason Crosby’s future as a Green Bay Packer was second-guessed.
A week five trip to Detroit was devastating for Crosby, who missed four of his five field goals that Sunday in addition to his lone extra point attempt. While he finished 21 of 22 the rest of the way, Crosby’s spot on the team still carried some doubt heading into his contract season of 2019. The Packers brought in Sam Ficken, a kicker with ties to Matt LaFleur in his previous stint with the Los Angeles Rams, and the battle went throughout camp.
