The second individual on this list to be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Jan Stenerud was a Norwegian-American kicker who was best known for his time with the Kansas City Chiefs where he showed off a huge kicking leg.

After 13 seasons with the Chiefs, Stenerud made his way to Green Bay where he had the best field goal kicking of his career by hitting 80.8 percent of his kicks and 97.5 percent of his extra-point attempts.

Stenerud spent four seasons with the Packers before coming to the Minnesota Vikings for two seasons at the end of his career. While there, Jan had an amazing season in 1984 when he connected on 87 percent of his kicks.

He retired after the 1985 season.
