It’s pretty amazing what world class kickers can do in their spare time. Justin Tucker, who recently hit a 75-yard field goal in practice, was showing off again this weekend with some trick shots, and one of them will blow your mind.
From 50 yards out, the Baltimore Ravens kicker swished a football off his foot into a basketball hoop that was attached to the right upright.
Be warned, one of the guys watching had a bit of a potty mouth on him in celebration.

Tucker was an NFL kicking demigod this past season for the Ravens. He missed just one of his 39 attempts all year and was a perfect 10-of-10 from 50 yards or more.
Of course, he’s not the only kicker who can do some amazing things. Just days after he hit his 75-yarder, Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater one-upped him with a bomb from 76 yards out (watch here).
The accuracy and power kickers display these days is stunning. Just don’t ask them to make an extra point.
