Butker’s rating simply just isn’t reflective of how good he is and how good he’s been throughout his NFL career. He is coming off a 2019 season where he converted 34-of-38 field goals and 45-of-48 PATs. At 89.7 percent, Butker’s career field goal percentage ranks as the second-best in NFL history.

I think they could easily give his kick accuracy rating a little love, it’s currently listed at 86. His kick power rating, 95, seems accurate, but then you see Butker nailing a 77-yard field goal this summer during offseason training. It makes you wonder if he won’t one day own the NFL’s distance record, especially playing in the AFC West and traveling to Denver once a year.

Plainly, Butker should have an 86 overall rating, just behind Justin Tucker as the second-best kicker in the game. Anything less is doing him and the entire rating system a disservice.
