I don't know my facts exactly, otherwise I would do this myself but somebody should finish this article. Things to research (validate) and include.

He is regarded as one of the most accurate kickers in league history

He is in the top 20 list of most points scored by any player at any position

Although not many kickers have ever reached the hall of fame, he is a likely candidate. (but highly doubtful inductee)

Is in the top three all time for 50+ yard FG completions. (I didn't even think that, just heard it from a bobble head)

Some stuff i dug up, since it seems nobody comes to this page, i might end up just writing the article myself, which would make it sub-par considering I don't know much about the history of kickers in this league, except that a "pioneer" kicker recently died and that todd mortenson is old but still wants to play. eRRR .

he has completed 317-393 field goals (80.7%)
he has completed 115 of 122 feild goals within 30-39 yards.
He has kicked 27 50+ yard feild goals, which i've heard must be enough to put him in the NFL all time top 3 (not verified).
he has completed 426-432 extra point kicks (98.6%).
He almost tied the record for most consectutive starts for a kicker (unverified) before being sidelined in 2005 (clarification?) Mithotyn 20:26, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

There is only a rumour he offered to kick for the Lions in 2014. Seems neither side will admit it happened, if it really did. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thecesspit (talk • contribs) 22:26, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

More Personal or Historical Info

I would love to read more about Jason Hanson's relationships with current and former teammates, ownership, and coaches over the years, particularly his relationship with Wayne Fontes and players from the Fontes era.Rag-time4 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 00:16, 14 September 2010 (UTC).[reply]
