General manager Dan Morgan says the Carolina Panthers plan to allow Eddy Pineiro to test the free agent market. Pineiro is the third-most accurate field goal kicker in NFL history. He is set to become an unrestricted free agent next month. The 29-year-old has made 88.1%. of his career field goal attempts since joining the NFL, which ranks behind Baltimore's Justin Tucker and Kansas City's Harrison Butker on the all-time list. Pineiro joined the Panthers in 2022 after spending time with the New York Jets and Chicago Bears. He made 80 of 90 field goals in that three-year span, including 8 of 11 from beyond 50 yards.
