welcome mr Zane

source - Panthers.com:

The Panthers traded kicker Zane Gonzalez to the San Francisco 49ers on Friday for conditional late-round 2025 compensation.

Gonzalez was quite good for the Panthers in 2021, hitting 20-of-22 field goal attempts and 22-of-23 extra points in 12 games, before he was injured in pregame warm-ups in Buffalo. When he suffered another injury against Buffalo last preseason, the Panthers found Piñeiro to replace him just before the start of the regular season.

Camp body, probably release after camp after he gets beat out by a rookie. * Also dirt cheap!!!

I'll see what we gave up but giving up draft capital for a kicker does not please me. We need to move up some in this draft and giving away a pick that could be used to move up isn't smart.

Watching him line up for crucial kicks for the Cardinals was painful. I'm guessing Lynch and Co are hoping his yips are gone because he was a pretty good college kicker.

Career wise he's 91 of 113, 80 percent.
