Mason Crosby did not play in 2024, and he will not attempt a comeback this offseason. The veteran kicker announced his retirement on Tuesday. 
Crosby said during an appearance on his 105.7 The Fan Milwaukee radio show that he has elected to hang up his cleats. As a result, his career is over after 17 seasons in the NFL. Of course, he will be best remembered for his 16-year run with the Packers prior to a brief stint as a Giants fill-in in 2023.
A former sixth-round pick, Crosby handled kicking duties during his rookie campaign and was not sidelined at any point during his Green Bay Run. The Colorado product never missed a game during his time with the organization, a stretch which included winning Super Bowl XLV. Crosby posted a field goal accuracy rate above 80% nine times in his career, going a perfect 16-for-16 in that department in 2020.
On three occasions, the Packers’ offensive efficiency helped Crosby lead the league in extra points. For his career, he connected on 739 of 760 XP attempts in the regular season. In terms of playoff production, Crosby missed only four of his 35 field goal tries while posting a perfect mark on extra points. That consistency helped him enjoy a lengthy run with the Packers, one which was followed by a brief stretch on the Rams’ practice squad but not any games played for Los Angeles.
Overall, Crosby ends his career as the Packers’ all-time leader in points; he sits 11th in league history with 1,939. The 40-year-old amassed just over $40MM in career earnings, having signed multiple Green Bay extensions during his time with the team. Now, his attention will officially turn to his post-playing days.
Well that is sad to hear. He and his family had many years in Wisconsin
Yep. Can’t complain with that stability at kicker for all those years
Him and his family do reside in Wisconsin.
He had an outstanding career. Sounds like he’s set up nicely for life’s second act and it was well earned.
He should stay in shape. There’s always a kicking need in the NFL
