We’re counting down the days until the Panthers kick off the 2024 season.
We’re officially 4 days away from the Carolina Panthers kicking off the 2024 NFL season against the New Orleans Saints. That’s right, we’re less than a week away, y’all! It will be their second consecutive road opener. Now it’s time for our annual roster countdown to highlight the players on the Panthers’ roster. Today, we’re taking a closer look at the player wearing the the No. 4 jersey—kicker Eddy Piñeiro.
Piñeiro has been one of the most stable parts of the chaos train known as the Carolina Panthers since he joined the team in 2022. He has kicked more field goals than extra points—averaging about a 90% conversion rate on both—while kicking close to an average of two field goals per game over the last two seasons.
The goal under Dave Canales is for Bryce Young and the rest of the offense to take responsibility for most of the scoring going forwards, but the team is obviously comfortable keeping Steady Eddy as a competent plan B.
How about it Panthers fans, what are you expecting to score more points this season? Piñeiro or Young? Scroll on down to the comments and share your thoughts with us!
