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.

Green Bay Packers rookie kicker Trey Smack has made an immediate impact on the team, leaving fans and analysts alike in awe of his performance during the preseason. After making four field goals in the Packers' 33-13 victory over the Broncos, Smack has now demonstrated his proficiency with eight successful kicks, including three over 50 yards, despite one being disallowed due to a defensive penalty.

His accuracy and consistency have been nothing short of remarkable, with field goals of 51, 59, 43, and 38 yards against the Broncos. As the Packers search for consistency at the position following Mason Crosby's departure, Smack has emerged as the clear choice, with his performance leaving a significant impression on teammates and fans alike.
