Redskins release Kai Forbath, sign Dustin Hopkins

[MTK]

Forbath's lack of long range on FGs also did him in.

I was a KF supporter, but I don't have a big problem with rolling the dice on a younger guy with bigger upside. Especially one that should be able to consistently put kickoffs through the back of the end zone.

Exactly!
Kai had a good FG percentage because most of his kicks were short.
He did not make one 50+ yard FG all of last year.
