Bill Belichick was not shy in praising Ravens kicker Justin Tucker on Friday.
The Patriots head coach told reporters that Tucker is “the best kicker in the history of the league.”
Tucker certainly has a case to hold that title. He is the NFL’s all-time leader in field goal percentage (minimum 100 field goals attempted), making 90.7 percent of his kicks in his career. He’s also only missed one of his 262 extra-point attempts in his career.
Tucker has also been named first-team All-Pro three times in his nine-year carer.
Belichick giving Tucker “the best kicker in the history of the league” title is definitely interesting as Belichick has coached two kickers that can be in the conversation.
