UFL’s Jake Bates nails two more long-distance field goals
And for an encore …
Jake Bates gave the Michigan Panthers a win in UFL Week One with a 64-yard field goal despite it being his first field-goal attempt since high school.
The former Arkansas kicking specialist was back at it again in Week 2.
According to our @ESPNStatsInfo department, there’s only been one instance in @NFL history where a guys hit back-to-back 60 yard FGs in back-to-back weeks.

His kicking foe for Birmingham Chris Blewitt was having a day, himself, going 4-for-4 as the game was in the fourth quarter.
