5 years agoChicago Bears kicker Eddy Pineiro may be the only kicker on the roster at the moment, but special teams coach Chris Tabor does not believe the kicking job is set in cement. "His (Pineiro) expectation is to be a really good player for us. And if that doesn't get satisfied, just as with any other position, you have to do what's best for the team." The Bears cut kicker Ramiz Ahmed earlier this week but Tabor has been adamant that the team will look outside the organization if Pineiro falters. The second-year kicker made 23-of-28 field goals last season but head coach Matt Nagy rarely trusted Pineiro beyond 40 yards. There is plenty of room for improvement if Pineiro hopes to be around in the NFL for the long haul.--Joey C - RotoBaller
