The\u00a0Green Bay Packers\u00a0decided to make a kicking change before the Houston Texans game this weekend. They released\u00a0Brayden Narveson\u00a0from the team and signed\u00a0Brandon McManus. The fanbase reacted negatively to the move because of his past off-the-field issues with the Jacksonville Jaguars.<\/p>\nOct 20, 2024; Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA; Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (17) celebrates as he runs off the field following the game against the Houston Texans at Lambeau Field.

There is no doubt that McManus is the star of the hour for the Packers special teams unit. The kicking game was a ,major question entering the 2024 season and it is possible that they may have finally figured that out. After the game, McManus spoke to\u00a0Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.\u00a0The former Jacksonville Jaguars kicker loves thriving in pressure situations.<\/p>\n
He said to\u00a0Schneidman:<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019ve got to go into each game understanding it might come down to you. That\u2019s why I chose this position many moons ago. I love the pressure situations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ravens @ Buccaneers – NFL Game Recap for October 21, 2024<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
This will not be the last time this season that Brandon McManus will probably be asked to kick a game-winning field goal or have another big kick in a football game. McManus has a chance to make Packers fans happy if he continues to kick well for them.<\/p>\n
McManus Talks About Early Career Struggles<\/h2>\nOct 20, 2024; Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA; Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (17) celebrates with punter Daniel Whelan (19) after making the winning field goal during the fourth quarter against the Houston Texans at Lambeau Field. Mandatory Credit: Jeff Hanisch-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
To go along with talking about the game-winning field goal on Sunday afternoon, McManus also opened up about his struggles early in his NFL career. He told\u00a0Matt Schneidman:<\/p>\n
\u201cI struggled in the beginning of my career. I was cut three times and traded. It\u2019s the nature of this position. I don\u2019t wish anyone to go through it, but sometimes it does take going through that, missing a couple of kicks, understanding the winds, understanding situations \u2026 Every single game winner, every single field goal, I\u2019m excited to kick and continue to score more points in this league. Grew up watching the games since I was 3 years old going to games. It\u2019s still a dream of mine to be playing in this league. What a way to help this team win in my first game here at Lambeau Field.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Next week, Brandon McManus will look to make some big kicks for the Packers against his former team, the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars are just 2-5 this season and this is a potential trap game for the Packers after improving to 5-2 on the season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
