NFL locals: How Matt Gay earned redemption — and hit a career-long 58-yard field goal — in Buccaneers’ wild win (+week 4 highlights)

SALT LAKE CITY — Matt Gay turned his fortunes around in a week.

After missing a potential game-winning field goal and two extra points in a one-point loss in week 3, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie kicker made two key field goals and hit all seven point-after attempts in the Buccaneers’ wild 55-40 win over the previously unbeaten Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

Gay, the Utah and Orem High product, appreciated the trust Tampa Bay coach Bruce Arians showed in him.

“Especially after last week, being able to stick with me and have confidence in me, and then throwing me out there for a long one, that’s shows that he trusts me and he believes in me,” Gay told the Tampa Bay Times.

Gay’s first field goal, a career-long 58-yarder, put the Buccaneers ahead 31-20 in the third quarter after Tampa Bay had watched its once 21-point lead dwindle to eight midway through the third.

His next field goal was much shorter — a 21-yarder — but it was equally important. Gay’s second field goal put the Buccaneers ahead by eight with 2:35 to play, forcing Los Angeles to score a touchdown and a two-point conversion to try and tie the game.

A Ndamukong Suh 37-yard fumble return for a touchdown capped the Tampa Bay victory just over a minute of game time later, and Gay added his seventh extra-point make of the day to account for the final score.

“It’s huge and so is the confidence we have in the guy,” Arians told the Times about Gay. “He knows we have confidence. He’s not going anywhere. This kid’s talented. One kick doesn’t define you.”
