Ravens kicker Justin Tucker holds the record for the longest field goal in NFL history.ย 

Tucker kicked an incredible 66-yard field goal against the Raiders in 2021, which stands as the longest ever made in an NFL game.ย 

Modern NFL kickers have significantly increased the frequency at which they can accurately boot 60-yard field goals. In 2011, Raiders kicker Sebastian Janikowski was practically an Olympian when he connected from 63 yards out.ย 

These days, it seems like an annual occurrence.ย
