Eddy Pineiro Doubtful To Kick In Season Finale

Eddy Pineiro Doubtful To Kick In Season Finale

11 months ago

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) missed practice all week due to his right-hamstring injury and is doubtful to kick in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 28-year-old kicker will wrap up the 2023 season with two straight missed games to close out the year. Overall, he made 25 of his 29 field-goal attempts (86.2 percent) while missing three of his 20 extra-point tries over 15 games played. With Pineiro unlikely to play this weekend, the Panthers will elevate Matthew Wright from their practice squad to the active roster for the final game of the season. Fantasy managers in DFS or those still playing for a championship in Week 18 should be looking to avoid Wright.
