Justin Tucker stats: Longest field goals, percentage made by Ravens kicker & more to know image

The Ravens can claim a host of talented pieces on their roster as they look to take down the Chiefs in the 2024 AFC championship game.

The most talked-about player ahead of Sunday's contest might be quarterback Lamar Jackson. But Baltimore's most quietly effective weapon is veteran placekicker Justin Tucker.

Considered one of the best specialists to ever do it, Tucker has been the difference-maker in multiple Ravens victories over the years, with misses coming few and far between.

Here's what you need to know about Tucker and his career by the numbers.

Justin Tucker's longest field goal

The longest made field goal of Justin Tucker's career came on a 66-yard attempt against the Lions back on Sept. 26, 2021.

That kick will be remembered by Baltimore fans for years to come, as it secured a 19-17 road victory Detroit in the final seconds of regulation. It also stands as the longest made field goal in NFL history.

As one of the most successful kickers in NFL history, Tucker has remained consistent over his 12-season career, which he has spent entirely with the Ravens.

The veteran's most accurate year came in 2016 season when he made all but one of his field-goal attempts, going 38-for-39 with a 97.4% completion rate.

Tucker's worst year, which featured six misses, came in 2022, when he knocked 86% of his attempts through the uprights. Still, 2022 was not without its bright points for Tucker, as his highlights included a 43-yard game-winner in a 19-17 Week 5 win over the Bengals. That marked the 61st consecutive field goal of Tucker's career, which is yet another NFL record.

In 2023, the 34-year-old made the Pro Bowl for the seventh time in his career and for the fifth year in a row.
