Mason Walker Crosby (born September 3, 1984 in
Lubbock, Texas), is an American professional
football placekicker for the Green Bay Packers.
During his playing days at the University of
Colorado, Crosby was widely considered the best
kicker in college football, as evidenced by ESPN
draft expert Mel Kiper Jr.'s Top 5 Seniors by
position in 2006. Crosby was a unanimous selection
as a First Team All American by the Associated
Press, FWAA, The Sporting News, and Walter Camp for
the 2005 NCAA Division I-A football season. He was
the runner-up for the Lou Groza Award, despite being
heavily favored to win.
