Connor Thomas Barth (born April 11, 1986) is a former American football placekicker who played ten seasons in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at North Carolina and was signed by the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent in 2008.

Barth has been a member of the Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New Orleans Saints and the Chicago Bears. He currently holds the highest field goal percentage in Buccaneers franchise history, a record he achieved during the 2011 season. He also broke another franchise record during the 2012 season in which he made 25 consecutive field goals. He is also the most accurate kicker in Buccaneers history, converting 83.8 percent of his field goal attempts (114-of-136) with the club. His 114 field goals, 135 PATs, and 447 points all rank third in franchise history.[1] Barth holds the Buccaneers franchise record for consecutive field goals made with 25.[2]

Barth is currently a real estate agent for Intracoastal Realty in Wilmington, North Carolina.[3]

Personal life[edit]

Barth is the son of Thomas and Susan Barth. His younger brother, Casey, was also a placekicker for the North Carolina Tar Heels football team.[4][5][6]

Early years[edit]

Barth learned to kick under the tutelage of Brian Cardone in Wilmington, North Carolina. Barth was named to the first-team high school All-America by USA Today during his prep career at John T. Hoggard High School in Wilmington. He played in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, where he was named the top kicker in the combine. He was selected to the inaugural EA Sports High School All-America Team. Out of high school, Barth was considered one of the best kickers in the country by most recruiting services. He set the North Carolina state record for field goals in a season and career with 38. The Charlotte Observer ranked him among the top 25 overall players in the state of North Carolina. In 2002, he had a string of 40 consecutive extra points. Playing as a punter and a kicker, Barth made 11 of 14 field goals that year. He also was 53 of 54 on extra point attempts as a Junior.[7] He kicked 75 percent of his kickoffs into the end zone. As a punter, he punted 42 times for a 38.2-yard average.[7]

College career[edit]

In 2004, as a freshman at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Barth was named second-team freshman All-America by the Rivals.com recruiting network. He was also an honorable-mention All-ACC member. In 2004, he made 14 of 18 field goals and 35 of 37 extra point attempts. He is well known for a 42-yard game-winning field goal as time expired against #3 Miami.[8] He made his first career field goal on a 22-yard attempt at Virginia.[7]

In 2005, as a sophomore, Barth made 11 of 21 field goals.[7] He struggled throughout the season, but connected on eight of his last ten field goal attempts.[7]

Barth (#10) kicks a field goal in UNC's win over Maryland in 2007.

In 2006, as a junior, Barth made all 10 field goal attempts and 24 of 26 extra points. He was the only kicker in the country with a perfect field goal percentage. In a game against North Carolina State, Barth made a 54-yarder that was his career best and tied for the second-longest in school history.[7]

In 2007, as a senior, Barth made 19 of 22 field goals and 30 of his final 33 attempts, dating back to his sophomore season. He earned first-team All-ACC honors from Rivals.com and honorable mention all-conference honors from the Associated Press.[7] Against Miami, Barth kicked a career-high four field goals in the 33–27 win and was named the ACC special teams player of the week.[7] He graduated UNC with a Communications major.[7]

Barth previously held the UNC record for most made field goals (54). His brother, Casey Barth, now holds the current record (55)[7]

Professional career[edit]

Kansas City Chiefs[edit]

Barth was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2008.[9]

Barth made his NFL debut on October 26, 2008, against the New York Jets. He converted all three extra point attempts and one field goal try.[10]

Barth failed to beat out Nick Novak for the team's placekicking job and was waived by the Chiefs on August 29, 2008.[11]

Barth was re-signed by the team on October 21 after Novak was released.[12] In his first NFL game, Barth went 1-for-1 on field goal attempts and 3-for-3 on extra points against the New York Jets.[13] He remained perfect up until a Week 15 game (going in he was 9-for-9) where he missed two field goal attempts, including what would have been a game winning 50-yard field goal as time expired against the San Diego Chargers.[14][15]

Barth was waived by the Chiefs on July 28, 2009, in favor of Ryan Succop.[16]

Miami Dolphins[edit]

Barth was signed by the Miami Dolphins on August 10, 2009, to compete with incumbent Dan Carpenter.[17] However, the Dolphins waived Barth on August 29.[18]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers[edit]

Barth prepares to kick a field goal held by Jacob Schum in 2015.

Barth was signed by the Buccaneers on November 3, 2009, after the Buccaneers released Shane Andrus.[19] Barth tied an NFL record held by three other kickers when he made three field goals of 50 yards or more against the Miami Dolphins on November 15, 2009; the kicks were from 51, 50, and 54 yards.[20][21]

On December 27, 2009, Barth kicked a 47-yard overtime field goal to give the Buccaneers the win over the New Orleans Saints, 20–17.[22] He appeared in nine games in the 2009 season. He converted all 12 extra point attempts and 14 of 19 field goal attempts.[23]
