Yes, I suspect that what you say here is exactly right. The coaches are probably encouraged that he has improved his KO's to some degree and they know that he'll continue to work to get better at them in games. As you said, since he's not very good on KO's his leash may indeed be a bit shorter on FG's.
Actually, I expect him to be very dependable on FG's. If he continues to improve his KO's over time, I'll be altogether fine with him. I'm just tired of losing field position on kickoffs, which makes me impatient with him.
