Browns Sign Kicker To New $15.9 Million Contract

Kickers aren't any different than other position player. Sometimes they don't just step in and be perfect.
I dunno. It's not like they have to learn a playbook. They don't have to, lets say, work with the receivers to get the timing down. The goal posts are in the same place wherever you go. They've gotta kick it betwix the uprights. Like they've been trying to do for what, practically their whole lives? I don't mean to say that it's an easy thing to do. But the mechanics of kicking a FG is no different in the NFL than in college. Presumedly, they've kicked game deciding FG's in front of large crowds before.
Nice Job! Kicker!

Well said! This an interesting conversation you guys have going here because you both bring up great points. Kickers are sort of like a closer in baseball. They have 1 job to do. If this guy comes in with the bases loaded and 2 outs - he either gets the batter out; or he's the last and biggest memory viewers have of why his team lost.

And yet you can find numerous examples of guys who went through several teams before finding their groove.
Why that is, I don't know, but it isn't a rare occurrence.
