Thursday Night Football was rocked by the Minnesota Vikings match against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles dominated a large part of the match and gained an overwhelming victory of 34-38 points. And their kicker Jake Elliott had a major contribution to their game win.

Eagles have recently won a match against the New England Patriots, and now have a 2-o win record with this match. The Vikings couldn’t keep up with the defense of the Eagles even though the Eagles’ Offense at times looked sluggish. The Vikings safety Josh Metellus was injured 10 minutes into the game, but by the end of the first half of the game, the Eagles kicker Jake Elliott stole the show with a 61-yard kick stunning everyone watching there.

Elliott’s performance stunned everyone as he became the star of the show. But it wasn’t all rainbows all along for the player. In the beginning, he was seen missing a 55-yard field goal but later on, he came back with an even better 61-yarder touchdown. The score went straight up doubling the opposition’s, 13-7.

Many fans have been applauding this touchdown by the player. Kickers are often given these kinds of opportunities during the games but not very many are able to successfully launch a touchdown with it. The Pro Bowl has been an important part of the team redeeming all the kicks whenever he gets a chance.

The kicker’s 61-yarder was his career long which he tied with the half-time buzzer ringing off. Until now, this season has been great for not just Elliott but also his team, the Eagles. This wasn’t his only accomplishment in this and the past week. The player has also been named the NFC Special Team’s Player of the Week.

On Wednesday, this news was announced by the NFL. This wasn’t his first time to take this title home. The Super Bowl champion has been honored by the same title 4 times in his 7-year career. Previously, in the last match, the Eagles won with 25 points. Out of the 25 points, 13 points were scored by the kicker, Elliott himself.

The player managed to score over 50-yards for 4 times in the game on Sunday. The Illinois-born has been the one and only player who has managed to score two field goals which are both over 50 yards. But there’s more to come in the next matches.
