Crosby was 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on extra points in the win over the Dolphins. He finished with 14 of the team’s 26 points.
The Packers released a video upon Crosby breaking the record. The clip was narrated by longtime teammate Aaron Rodgers.

"Find the words to describe a player like Mason Crosby isn’t always easy," Rodgers says in the video. "But for years, we’ve done our best to do it anyway."
Since the Packers took him in the sixth round of the 2007 NFL Draft, he’s been the mainstay in the franchise and has been through all the ups and downs with Favre and Rodgers. He’s led the league three times in extra-point makes and led the league in points in his rookie year with 141.
