One week ago, it seemed like a pretty good bet that Kai Forbath would be the Cowboys place kicker in 2020. He was perfect during his audition at the end of 2019 once Brett Maher was cut, and the Cowboys had gone ahead and re-signed him to a one-year deal. Good times for Forbath.
Then came yesterday when the Cowboys made a deal with former Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein. It’s tempting to say the Cowboys have set up a kicking competition, but a look at the contracts gives you a very good idea of where this is headed.
