VIDEO: Lions Kicker Matt Prater Seems to Be Ripping Smelling Salts Right Before Field Goal Attempt

Well, it would appear we have an explanation as to why the 35-year-old Matt Prater still flaunts one of the NFL's most lethal and accurate legs. The two-time Pro Bowler was called upon by the Detroit Lions on Monday Night Football to attempt a 26-yard field goal, a surefire chip shot based on his lofty standards. However, while lining up for the kick, ESPN cameras blatantly spotted Prater appearing to be ripping smelling salts to get his adrenaline flowing.

Folks, the zoom-in confirms that Prater is certainly not launching a snot rocket to clear his sinuses. It's clear as day that he's sniffing something in his glove. The Central Product has even been known to sniff smelling salts ahead of field goals throughout his career.

Prater is already considered a club legend by Lions fans, and this footage will almost certainly add to his national treasure legacy.
