If he’s injured, he should be on IR, because we’ll be in some close games coming down the stretch this year.

I mean if your best example is a missed kick from 4 years ago that's not good enough for me.

And I'd be more concerned with him consistently missing clutch kicks if we fielded anything better than a dumpster fire team the last few years. I remember the days when we were trying out new kickers every week and guys like Graham Gano couldn't get a touchback on a kickoff to save their life, now we take that for granted every week.

I think if he's injured they should've put him on IR and done some tryouts, but it's too late for that already.
