| Random Norwegian guy and kicking phenom gets tryout with NY Jets (Posted on 12/28/12 at 12:16 pm)
quote:
The struggling New York Jets may have found their newest superstar. A video of Havard Rugland kicking a football ridiculously long distances, backwards over his head and at moving targets, has gone viral and scored him a tryout with the New York Jets.
Rugland, from Aalgaard, Norway, only began kicking a football two years ago, but his accuracy — even at targets like moving cars — has to be seen to be believed.

Too bad Tebow couldn't kick field goals, he would see much more of the field
PS: MSB

They'll sign him and then use him only in the wildcat to run up the middle.

My thoughts exactly. Trick kicking doesn't translate well in clutch situations with 300lb lineman trying to rip your head off. The only thing that I could see working for this guy is on kickoffs when they pull some trickey on-sides kick. Then it will never work again.

Fitting name at least.

Upon furtherreview I wonder if he could avoid pushing it left like Hartley.
