Chargers’ Cameron Dicker gives hilarious update on day-to-day life as NFL kicker

Life as an NFL kicker is for a select few.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker left soccer greats Landon Donovan and Tim Howard speechless after breaking down his day-to-day as an NFL Kicker.

Immediately after Dicker told Howard that he actually only kicks three days a week, Howard was stunned and asked, “What do you do the rest of the week?” To which Dicker jokingly said he plays FIFA and hangs out for the rest of the week.

“So I kick Sunday, I do legs on Monday, then on Tuesday, we go in. We’re in there for like five hours, I’ll do an upper body lift, we look at the game film,” Dicker said after Howard jokingly interrupted him and said, “What’re you looking at, it’s just snap the ball.”

Dicker laughed at Howard’s comments and continued to break down his week by saying on Wednesdays, he kicks about 50 balls, whereas Thursdays will feature a lighter kicking day, where he will work on field goals and kickoffs, and then finally on Friday, he finishes the week by having another lowerbody lift and will spend the rest of his weekend recovering before the Chargers take the field on Sundays.

Left with envy, Howard responded to Dicker’s comments and said, “What were we doing for 22 years?” Donovan said, “We picked the wrong sport,” with his hand buried into his face.

Howard and Donovan are both crowned as Soccer royalty as they are both considered some of the greatest players to ever play for the USMNT. In 2023, Donovan was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame, while Howard was inducted the following year.

Dicker is considered the most accurate kicker in football right now, as he has an accuracy rate of 94%. In 2024, he set the Chargers’ single-season record for most points scored by a kicker, notching 150 points.
