Boswell, Wright Both Perfect In First Kicking Session, But Tomlin Downplays Significance

While it’s not among the most exciting, I’m sure, the battle for the starting kicker position figures to be among the most hotly contested for the Pittsburgh Steelers during training camp this year. Embattled starter Chris Boswell is looking to keep his job—and earn a $2 million roster bonus—while holding off his challenger, rookie former UCF college free agent Matthew Wright.

Admittedly, the team hasn’t worked a lot on the kicking game so far through the first two days down in Latrobe at Saint Vincent College. They didn’t really do anything on the field day, but they did do some relatively light work yesterday.
