Packers Kicker Brandon McManus Starts Training Camp Perfectly

The Green Bay Packers have found stability at the kicker position with veteran Brandon McManus, who has been perfect in the early days of the 2025 training camp, going 23-for-23 in kicks including multiple long-range field goals. McManus, who turned 34 recently, joined the Packers last season after the team struggled with inconsistent kicking from multiple players, including Anders Carlson and Brayden Narveson. His outstanding performance last year, where he made 20-of-21 field goals after signing mid-season, earned him a three-year contract extension with the Packers. The team has welcomed McManus's consistency, which contrasts sharply with previous years when kicking was a significant weakness for Green Bay. This season, McManus has continued to impress by making several field goals over 50 yards during camp, providing much-needed confidence and reliability for the Packers. Meanwhile, the Packers are managing injuries on the offensive line and other positions, but the kicking unit appears to be a settled strength going into the season.
