Riley Patterson - NFL kicker on game-winning playoff FGs and finding his purpose and identity in Jesus

Riley Patterson is an NFL kicker with the Detroit Lions. He was traded by the Jaguars to Detroit in May of 2023. Last season, Patterson helped the Jaguars to the AFC South title hitting on 30 of 35 field goals and 36 of 37 extra points to total 126 points. 

In the AFC Wild-Card matchup against the Chargers, Patterson hit the game-winning 36 yard field goal with no time left to give Jacksonville a 31-30 victory over the Chargers. 

Today on the podcast, we talk to Riley Patterson about going from being released to kicking in the playoffs, focusing on God in the midst of a pressure-filled moment, using his platform to point others to Christ and finding his identity in Jesus and not his performance.
