3 years agoThe New York Jets tendered restricted free-agent kicker Eddy Pineiro for one year at $2.433 million on Wednesday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Pineiro played well in five games down the stretch for the Jets last year, making all eight of his field-goal attempts and nine of his 10 extra-point tries. The 26-year-old will now be the favorite to start in Week 1 of the 2022 season over Matt Ammendola. Pineiro has made 31 of his 36 field-goal tries and 36 of his 39 extra-point attempts in 21 games over his two NFL seasons with the Jets and Chicago Bears. He made 82.1% of his 28 field-goal attempts in his rookie season in 2019 for the Bears in 16 games.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
