Arkansas kicker has made history as the youngest kicker ever to be drafted. With the 212th pick, the Jacksonville Jaguars selected the kicking sensation.

The Jags now have three kickers on the roster after signing a Joey Slye back in March. Little will have to battle to earn playing time. However, Little did turn heads in the NFL Combine. One of his kicks went viral after knocking through a 60+ yard field goal.

With an outstanding field goal average of 82.8 percent, Little scored 288 points and was perfect on extra points with the Hogs. Without “Mr. Automatic” Arkansas would have certainly lost more games in the past three years. But the Moore, Okla. native will most likely be know for doing the griddy after walking off LSU in 2021 during a Baton Rouge night game. Or on a more wholesome note, when he comforted Mississippi State’s kicker after he missed the game winning field goal.

Here are his accolades while at Arkansas:
