Eddy Pineiro
Optimist: Not bringing a second kicker to camp turns into a winning move, as Pineiro — after a mentally taxing year constantly on the bubble — responds to the vote of confidence by taking a big step toward maturing into a reliable, headstrong Soldier Field kicker.
Pessimist: Unchallenged in training camp after the kicker derby of 2019, Pineiro is unable to take the next step and struggles with consistency. His confidence erodes amid constant questions about his misses and talk of bringing in a challenger. He’s not the answer.
