Will the Carolina Panthers finally solve their kicking woes this offseason following what is expected to be strong competition at camp?

The Carolina Panthers had a steady hand, or foot, at the kicker position for the better part of a decade in the always reliable Graham Gano. That is until a fractured femur derailed the veteran’s 2019 season, in which he never attempted a kick.

After a 2016 campaign in which the kicker made only 78.9 percent of their attempts, the Panthers sensed some complacency and brought in current Kansas City Chiefs stud Harrison Butker.
