Philadelphia Eagles star kicker Jake Elliott named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week for 3rd time this season

Jake Elliott has established himself as one of the best kickers in the NFL.

After the Eagles’ thrilling 37-34 win against the Bills in overtime, we predicted he’d undoubtedly land another weekly honor.

The veteran kicker nailed a 59-yard field goal with under 30 seconds in regulation to pull Philadelphia even with Buffalo, 31-31, earning his third NFC Special Teams Player of the Week honor this season.

Elliott made all four of his extra points and the bomb of a 59-yard field goal that sent the game to overtime en route to the Eagles’ 10th win.

Elliott was also named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week in Weeks 1 and 4.
