Zuerlein made 82.9 percent of his field goals in both of his seasons with Dallas after eight seasons with the Rams.<\/p>\n<p>Zuerlein was a First-Team All-Pro and Pro Bowl selection in 2017 and sent the Rams to Super Bowl LIII by drilling a walk-off 57-yard field goal in overtime to cap a 4-for-4 performance in the NFC Championship. Nicknamed \u201cGreg the Leg,\u201d Zuerlein also made a 53-yarder in the Super Bowl (before a late-game miss) and has a career-long of 61 yards in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>The Jets have been searching for a kicker ever since Pro Bowler Jason Myers signed with the Seahawks in 2019.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
