Los Angeles Chargers punter Drew Kaser had one of the funnier kicking mishaps in recent memory on Thursday, and even he saw the humor in it.
Kaser, who served as the team’s emergency kicker in their 28-6 Thanksgiving win over the Dallas Cowboys with Nick Novak hobbled, hilariously missed the kicking net entirely on a practice field goal on the sideline during the first half.

After the game, Kaser poked some fun at himself on Twitter for the gaffe, referencing Bob Uecker’s famous line from “Major League.”

To his credit, Kaser entered the game in the third quarter and nailed his first extra point attempt. He missed his next two PAT tries after that though, but at least he’s handling the rough outing better than he has in the past.
