The word on the street.....
The Panthers have agreed to take a look at two new kickers. This after losing K Zane Gonzales in Friday's 3rd and final pre-season game. Gonzales suffered a "significant long-term injury" Friday night while warming up on the sideline at B of A stadium. Gonzales reportedly "slipped" while kicking into the net. It occurs to me that the new "turf" on the home field may be at least partially to blame...???? I'm sure we haven't heard the last of the slippery turf issue.
So, on Monday the Panthers will bring in Kicker Eddy Pineiro for a workout. This according to Joe Person as reported by The Athletic and quoted by Panthers Wire. Pineiro will join Kicker Brian Johnson in vying for the Kicker's job with the Panthers. Both Pineiro and Johnson have ties to Panthers ST Coordinator, Chris Tabor.
I suspect we will hear more on Monday or Tuesday.
