Tim Hightower Field Goal: Redskins RB Kicks 40-Yarder During Pregame Warm-Ups (VIDEO)

Watch out Graham Gano, you may have some kicking competition this fall.

During warm-ups prior to their final preseason game against the Buccaneers, Redskins starting running back Tim Hightower could be seen kicking 40-yard field goals that would have been good from much, much further.

The display wasn't entertaining just from a novelty standpoint (which could aptly describe Chad Ochocinco's days as a kicker)... Hightower has some serious leg.

Could you imagine if Redskins starting kicker Graham Gano were to get injured and Hightower became the first RB/K in modern fantasy football history?

The former Arizona Cardinal is currently being taken on average with the 97th pick overall in Yahoo! fantasy leagues this year.

Adjust your draft boards accordingly.

I've seen plenty of black QB's but never a black place kicker. Not one....and I cannot think of one reason for this. Perhaps the high school coaches think of blacks as more physical, and end up giving the special teams jobs to the white kids.
