Bengals kicker Evan McPherson continues to rewrite Bengals franchise history

Cincinnati kicker Evan McPherson set a new franchise benchmark during the team's Week 5 matchup against Miami by converting a 26-yard field goal in the final two minutes. That successful kick marked twenty-two consecutive made field attempts, allowing him to surpass his mentor Shayne Graham for the longest streak in club history.

Earlier in the season, McPherson earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Month honors for September following a flawless start and has continued to perform well despite the team's fluctuating results. While stars such as Joe Burrow, Tee Higgins, and Ja'Marr Chase often dominate headlines, the fifth-round draft pick remains a vital component of the franchise's aspirations.
