Jaguars' Cam Little makes longest field goal in NFL history

The name Cam Little will forever be etched in NFL history. 

On Sunday, Little nailed a 68-yard field goal for the Jacksonville Jaguars in their Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders, breaking the record for the longest field goal in NFL history.

The previous record for the longest field goal in league history was owned by former Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker, who made a 66-yarder on September 26, 2021, against the Detroit Lions

Little, a 22-year-old native of Moore, Oklahoma, played college football at Arkansas before being drafted by Jacksonville in 2024. 

Not the first time Cam Little has nailed a long kick 

NFL fans were well aware of Little's range before Sunday's record-breaking kick, however. 

In an Aug. 9 preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Little hit a 70-yard field goal as the first half expired. That kick didn't officially go down in the record books, but Little's record-breaking feat on Sunday proved that it was no fluke. 

Little's kick gave Jacksonville its first points of the afternoon, with the Raiders leading the Jaguars 6-3 at the half. Little has made 11 of his 15 field goal attempts this season, as well as 14 of his 15 extra points.
