Packers fans getting a kick out of rookie Trey Smack's hot start

After two August games Trey Smack is a perfect 7-for-7 in field goal attempts.

The Green Bay Packers selected rookie kicker Trey Smack in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft after evaluating his impressive skills. After participating in only two preseason games, Smack has demonstrated his worth as a promising kicker for the Packers. During the team's 33-13 preseason victory against the Broncos, Smack showcased his accuracy by making four successful field goals.

Currently, he is 7-for-7 on field goal attempts, including three kicks from over 50 yards, which all found the back of the net. One of those successful attempts was disallowed due to a defensive penalty during a 28-9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Smack's performance has not left any doubt about his status as the Packers' starting kicker for the upcoming season.
