Wonder how far it would go in Denver?

Yeah he hit a 70-yarder at sea level on grass in humid Jacksonville.

Would like to see him get a shot at Mile High Stadium with the wind at his back, or at least a try off the turf in a climate-controlled dome.

Of you watch the video he had a few yards to spare.

There was zero wind which no doubt helped but the humidity here it in the damp zone.

I bet that kick would’ve gone around 80 or so yards in Denver, especially if the wind was at his back.

It’s funny that these record setting (or not quite setting, honestly they should count this) are so often basically at sea level. The 63 yarder in 1970 that was the record for decades happened at Tulane. It got tied at Mile High (and other places) a few times. Finally broken by 1 yard at Mile High in 2013. 65 yarder in Baltimore, 584 feet “up”. And the current record is 66, in Detroit, 601 feet.
