Justin Tucker of Baltimore Ravens sees streak of made FGs inside 40 yards end

BALTIMORE — Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker isn’t automatic, after all.

Tucker’s NFL-record field goal streak ended Tuesday night when he sliced a 36-yard try wide left in the second quarter against the Dallas Cowboys.

Tucker had previously made 70 straight field goals inside 40 yards. No other kicker in league history had made more than 67 in a row.

Tucker’s miss came just after he had converted a 31-yard field goal that would’ve tied the game at 10. But guard Bradley Bozeman was called for a false start, moving the ball back 5 yards and forcing Tucker to kick again.

It marked the shortest field goal ever missed by Tucker. He had a 34-yarder blocked by the New England Patriots in 2016, when linebacker Shea McClellin leaped over long-snapper Morgan Cox.

Tucker is the most accurate kicker in NFL history, making 90.7% of his kicks even after that miss (284-for-313).
