The NFL changed the extra point rule, but how does that effect Nick Novak?

According to Dan Hellie of the NFL Network the National Football League has passed a rule to place the ball on the 15-yard line for extra point attempts.

The NFL believed that the extra point success rate was too high therefore made the change. The real question for Chargers fans is how does that effect Nick Novak?

Michael Gehlken of U-T San Diego reported some of Novak’s statistics in the new range.

Novak went 8/9 on field goal attempts from 30-39 yards last season. It looks as if the new distance won’t be a problem for him. Below is his career stats.
