Chargers execute first successful fair-catch kick in 48 years under Jim Harbaugh's coaching

Los Angeles Chargers' Cameron Dicker successfully made a fair-catch kick from 57 yards, the first in the NFL since 1976. A fair-catch kick allows a team to attempt a free kick for three points after a fair catch, with defenders standing 10 yards away. This play is rare due to the circumstances needed to execute it. Dicker's kick was the longest in NFL history, surpassing the previous record set in 1964. The last successful attempt was in 2019. The play was made possible by a penalty that gave the Chargers an untimed down before halftime. The last successful fair-catch kick in the NFL was in 1976.
