Buccaneers waive kicker Chandler Catanzaro after two misses

TAMPA, Fla. -- One day after kicker Chandler Catanzaro missed two field goals, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers waived him.

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.
