There's more than a handful of teams who'd duke it out for Brandon McManus right now.
The Broncos' specialist has epitomized clutch kicking through four weeks and has evolved into the NFL's best field-goal booter, according to Pro Football Focus.
McManus is perfect on field goal and elongated extra point attempts. The same can't be said for some of his kicking peers league-wide.
He's also kicked 19 touchbacks in 23 attempts -- good for second in the league to Baltimore's Justin Tucker.
McManus was nearly cut out of training camp this summer. The Broncos stuck with him; now, he's continuing the franchise's storied kicking legacy.
