Green Bay Packers Coach LaFleur Stands By Kicker Brayden Narveson
Packer kicker Brayden Narveson has faced challenges in his first two games, hitting only 3 of 4 field goals in both contests. Despite the inconsistency, head coach Matt LaFleur expressed confidence in Narveson's abilities and mentality, emphasizing the rookie's potential for improvement. Narveson missed both of his attempts from the 40 to 49-yard range but has been effective overall with six successful field goals out of eight attempts. The team's next game presents a chance for Narveson to redeem himself against the Tennessee Titans, the team that waived him last August.
By the Numbers- Narveson is 6-of-8 on field goal attempts this season.
- He has successfully converted all 3 extra-point tries.
- LaFleur remains supportive of Narveson's development as a kicker.
- Narveson's performance against the Eagles and Colts showcased both his skill and areas needing improvement.
Narveson will look to improve his field goal accuracy in Week 3 as he faces off against the Titans, offering a chance for personal redemption.
Bottom LineConfidence in Narveson's abilities remains high, but his success will hinge on addressing recent inconsistencies, particularly in longer field goal attempts.
