Detroit Lions Field Goals 50+ Leaders
Career totals with the Lions and the best single seasons in club history. Includes the 2026 season through October 19: these records are rebuilt every night, so a mark set yesterday is here this morning.

Matt Prater holds the Lions career record with 38 field goals 50+. The single-season record is 8, by Jason Hanson in 2008.
