Buccaneers cut kicker Chandler Catanzaro after two misses

TAMPA, Fla. -- One day after kicker Chandler Catanzaro missed two field goals, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have cut him, sources told ESPN.

Catanzaro missed field goals of 30 and 48 yards in the Bucs' 16-3 loss to the Washington Redskins on Sunday.

Catanzaro's struggles have been well-documented this season. He made 11 of 15 field goals (73.3 percent) -- 31st in the league -- and has missed four extra points (85.2 percent). He did, however, nail a 59-yard field goal in a 26-23 win over the Cleveland Browns -- the longest overtime field goal in NFL history.
