Adam Botkin Story of November 5, 2026Trari Newsroom

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

POV: Seeing How Far I Can Kick

Adam Botkin gave himself several different kicking assignments: recreate NFL misses, test his range, and let Mom take a turn holding. The University of Montana football alum posted five videos, with "POV: Seeing How Far I Can Kick" becoming the week's most watched.

That challenge builds from short attempts to a successful 70-yard field goal on an outdoor field. Botkin finishes by asking which team needs a kicker, and the comments become an informal recruitment desk. The Rams come up repeatedly, with viewers also putting in requests for the Falcons, Packers and Chiefs. Those are supporters' suggestions, not news of team interest.

"Making NFL Missed Field Goals (Week 8 Edition)" supplied the next-largest audience among the week's uploads. The Week 7 edition arrived afterward and is now drawing more daily views than its Week 8 counterpart. Meanwhile, "I Had My Mom Hold And This Happened 😂" brought a family variation to the kicking schedule, and "I Broke The NFL Record With THIS Kick" arrived on Thursday.

The distance challenge carries the most momentum, but an older project has company in the viewing mix: the sponsored "Can I Get A 0 Star Recruit A D1 Offer?" follows Botkin to Colorado to help Zak Crisler pursue his first Division I offer.

Botkin added about 3,000 subscribers over the week, while his daily viewing is now more than four times its usual level. Among nearby sports channels, The Deep 3 had a particularly busy viewing week; Broadcast Boys and Wheels recorded no subscriber gain. For Botkin, the extra attention is landing on the skill that connects these very different assignments: putting a football through the uprights.
