Our LT Alum Jake Elliott is officially the most accurate kicker in Super Bowl history. Jake hit four field goals during the Eagles' 40-22 blowout win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, which means he's now 9 of 9 in his Super Bowl career. Jake is tied for the most in a single-game in Super Bowl history. Way to go Jake!! #WeAreLT
