Jason Myers Delivers Again, Earns NFC Special Teams Player of the Week After Historic Performance
When a kicker nails six field goals in a single game-capped off by a 56-yard dagger to win it-it’s hard to argue the NFL got it wrong. Jason Myers, the Seahawks’ steady-footed veteran, was the obvious choice for NFC Special Teams Player of the Week after his clutch performance lifted Seattle past the Colts.
This wasn’t just a good game from Myers-it was a franchise-best showing. Six field goals, including a long-range game-winner, is the kind of outing that cements a kicker’s place in team lore. With this latest honor, Myers now has two Special Teams Player of the Week awards as a Seahawk, putting him just one shy of tying the franchise record held by John Brown.
And this isn’t just a one-week wonder. Myers has been on a tear throughout the 2025 season.
He was already named the league’s Special Teams Player of the Month for November, and he’s showing no signs of slowing down. In fact, he’s on the cusp of making NFL history.
With 37 made field goals already this season, Myers is within striking distance of David Akers’ single-season record of 44. With three games left on the schedule, he needs to average just three per game to match it-and given he just drilled six on Sunday, that pace doesn’t feel out of reach.
What’s perhaps most impressive is the consistency he’s brought to Seattle since arriving in 2019. While no kicker is flawless, Myers has been as reliable as they come in a league where dependable special teams play is often hard to find.
This season, though, he’s taken it to another level. He’s not just helping the Seahawks win games-he’s becoming a difference-maker every time he steps on the field.
Myers is now the fourth Seahawk to earn a weekly honor this season, joining Demarcus Lawrence, Ernest Jones IV, and Rashid Shaheed. That kind of company speaks to the depth of talent on this Seattle squad, but Myers’ contributions have been particularly crucial in tight games.
Of course, as much as Seahawks fans love seeing their kicker thrive, they’d probably prefer a few more extra points and fewer field goal attempts-if only because it would mean the offense is finishing drives. But if the team needs three points, whether it’s from 30 or 56 yards out, there’s little doubt who they trust to deliver.
Jason Myers is having a season to remember. And if he keeps this pace, he might just kick his way into the NFL record books.
