There was a time that Justin Tucker was considered the best Place Kicker in the National Football League, and some went as far as labeling him as the best of all time.

A Raven from 2012 to 2024, Tucker won the kicker's job as an undrafted rookie from Texas, helping them win a Super Bowl, and securing a First Team All-Pro in his second season.  Tucker was known for his incredible accuracy, missing only eight Extra Points over his career. At the time of his release in 2024, he was the most accurate Field Goal kicker in history, boasting a scintillating 89.1 success rate.  In between, Tucker went to seven Pro Bowls, earned five First Team All-Pros, was named to the 2010s All-Decade Team, and set a record with a 66-Yard Field Goal.  His final season in Baltimore was his weakest, and he was also dealing with a scandal involving masseuses.   

Regardless of how his run in Baltimore ended, nobody was more automatic than Tucker was at his peak.
