Roberto Aguayo Contacted 'Mental Coach' After Missing Multiple Kicks with Bucs

Through two preseason games, Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Roberto Aguayo isn't living up to expectations as a second-round draft pick.

After missing an extra-point attempt in his first game, the Florida State Seminoles product missed two field-goal attempts in Week 2.

According to Roy Cummings of 620 WDAE, the rookie kicker is already talking to a variety of people to fix his problems, including former kicker Ryan Longwell. He has reportedly spoken with a "mental coach" as well because his "confidence has been shaken 'a little bit.'"

Aguayo explained the problem is mental instead of physical, per Cummings:

I’m just focusing on relaxing and sometimes not thinking about it too much.
