The Pittsburgh Steelers showed up in Latrobe thinking that they had their kicking problems solved for the next decade or more, locking in then-fourth-year Pro Bowl kicker Chris Boswell to a long-term extension. He had just set team records for points scored and field goals made in a season the year before, but quickly went from one of the best in the league to one of the worst in 2018.
Head Coach Mike Tomlin didn’t hesitate even last season to challenge him for his job, bringing in a couple of legs late in the year to compete.
