Jaguars kicker Josh Scobee was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for the fifth time in his career following his franchise-record 59-yard field goal as time expired last Sunday to give the Jaguars a 31-28 win over the Colts.

He is five of five on field goals in 2010 with all five coming from 40-plus yards (45, 44, 48, 51, 59).
Scobee was also nominated for the GMC NEVER SAY NEVER MOMENT OF THE WEEK which is awarded to the best moment or play of the week that represents determination and perseverance.
