Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers has set a record with five field goals during Super Bowl LX against the New England Patriots.

Myers kicked a 33-yard field goal following the Seahawks' opening drive for a 3-0 lead at 11:58 in the first quarter. He followed with a 39-yarder at the 11:16 mark in the second quarter and a 41-yarder with 11 seconds left in the quarter for a 9-0 halftime lead.

Myers nailed another 41-yard field goal at the 9:12 mark of the third quarter to give Seattle a 12-0 lead and place himself in a five-way tie for most field goals in a single Super Bowl.

He broke that record at the 5:35 mark of the fourth quarter, giving the Seahawks a 22-7 lead.

 

This is the third straight Super Bowl in which a kicker has made four field goals. Philadelphia's Jake Elliott did it last year during the Eagles' 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. The previous year, the Chiefs' Harrison Butker had four successful field goals during his team's 25-22 overtime win over the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII.

Before that, however, more than 40 years had passed since a kicker had pulled off that feat. San Francisco 49ers' Ray Wershing did it during a 26-21 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl XVI following the 1981 season.

Green Bay Packers' Don Chandler was the first player to kick four field goals in a Super Bowl. He did it during a 33-14 win over the Oakland Raiders in Super Bowl II following the 1967 season.
