Recap of Janson Hanson on No Filter Sports Podcast

Retired kicker Jason Hanson joined Eli Zaret, Bob Page and Denny McClain on the No Filter Sports Podcast

From 1980-2012, the Detroit Lions only needed two field goal kickers. 

Prior to Jason Hanson, Eddie Murray kicked for the Lions from 1980-1991.

In April of 1992, Murray was waived since Hanson was drafted in the second round of that year's NFL Draft. 

Hanson was the 56th selection of the second round pick in the 1992 NFL Draft. He played his college football at Washington State.
