Which free-agent kickers still available on the market might the Carolina Panthers look to bring in for training camp competition?

One of the primary factors behind the Carolina Panthers losing eight games by one score during the 2020 season was a lack of conviction from the kicking position. This was thanks to Joey Slye going through some struggles in Year 2 of his pro career after earning the starting job despite veteran Graham Gano returning from injury.

Slye played the role of scapegoat, which is to be expected when one considers kickers are more expendable than almost every other position.
