Wearing Matt Prater Broncos jersey, kicker Matt Prater has been contributory this season with 50-yarder kicking, and it certainly has brought great benefits to the Denver Broncos. The fact that he and former Indianapolis Colt Mike Vanderjagt, wearing Indianapolis Colts jerseys, are the only kickers in NFL history to have a 50-yard-plus kick to tie a game and then one to win it in overtime. Vanderjagt did it on Nov. 24, 20002, against the Denver Broncos.
“Those were fabulous clutch kicks, both of them,” coach John Fox said of Prater on Monday. “He’s done it lately. He was in a little bit of a slump about a month ago and he worked himself out of it. We have great confidence in him really from any range.”
Wearing Denver Broncos jerseys, Matt Prater is 12 of 16 in his career from 50-plus. Therefore, it is obvious that the Denver Broncos has benefited a lot from Matt Prater’s ability in 50-plus kicking. And then Prater would probably be greatly depended on.
