Placekicker Cam Little made NFL history during the Jacksonville Jaguars' 30-29 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. In the dying seconds of the second quarter, he left fans at Allegiant Stadium in awe after successfully converting a 68-yard field goal.

With this goal, Little wrote his name down in the NFL record books. He now holds the title for the longest field goal in league history, surpassing the previous record set by ex-Ravens star Justin Tucker in 2021 (66 yards).

Did Jags kicker Cam Little get a drug test request from the NFL?

The answer is no. The letter going viral on social media was actually shared by a parody account using the Jaguars placekicker's name. The NFL has not summoned Cam Little for a drug test.

During the preseason, the second-year placekicker showcased his talent when he scored an impressive 70-yard field goal against the Steelers at EverBank Stadium. Unfortunately, it was not considered an official record since preseason games do not count as official records.

Nevertheless, Little has managed to push through with his resilience and finally become a part of the league's history. Since being drafted 212th overall in last year's draft, the rookie has made 40 field goals for his team in 25 games

The Jaguars are now 5-3 after Sunday's victory over the Raiders.
