Harrison Butker kicks 69-yard FG in Chiefs-Buccaneers preseason game

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker made a 69-yard field goal against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on August 22, 2026. This impressive kick, which would have broken the NFL regular-season record if it had occurred in a regular-season game, was part of his perfect preseason field-goal performance. Butker's previous career long was 62 yards, establishing him as a top kicker. Analyst Joe Schad suggested the NFL should narrow the goal posts in response to Butker's success, a proposal that has drawn criticism for its lack of logic given the skill required for such a long kick.
