Lowery was selected to the Pro Bowl three times and when he retired was ranked first in field goal percentage and also had the most field goals in NFL history. He is currently tenth on the National Football League's list of all-time scoring leaders, and is the Chiefs' all-time leading scorer, with 1,466 points in his 14 seasons with the club.

Nick grew up in Washington, DC and attended St. Albans School where he was a star football player.

In 2009 Lowery was inducted into the Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Fame.

Lowery was all-pro 7 times during his career, and set several NFL records during his career

• most field goals all-time (384)
• most accurate all-time (from 1984-1997 Lowery held the all-time accuracy mark for 10 of those 12 years)
• most 50 yard field goals
• most games with 2 or more 50 yarders
• Lowery also held the record for best PAT percentage since the goal posts were moved back 10 yards and PAT's became 20 yarders, not 10 yarders.
