Panthers Bring In Five Kickers
2 years agoThe Carolina Panthers are looking for a new kicker after Zane Gonzalez (groin) suffered a significant injury. The organization reportedly brought in Taylor Bertolet, Brian Johnson, Chase McLaughlin, Eddy Pineiro, and Matthew Wright for workouts. The Panthers are unsure if Gonzalez will miss the entire season, but it sounds like he won't be ready for Week 1. That being said, they need to find a replacement kicker quickly. At first glance, McLaughlin and Pineiro appear to be the favorites due to their experience. Whoever wins probably won't have great fantasy value unless Carolina figures out how to move the ball on offense.
