Tampa – Bucs veteran Cairo Santos enters the 2019 preseason entrenched in a kicking competition, but he doesn’t want to waste much time looking over his shoulder at the newcomer who wants to take his job.
Santos converted seven of his eight field goal attempts in kicking drills on Friday, making from 51 and 55 yards out. His lone miss came from 59 yards, his longest attempt of the day.
Matt Gay, Tampa Bay’s fifth round draft pick out of the University of Utah, is showing off a strong leg in Buccaneers training camp. On Thursday, he hit six of his eight field goal attempts, converting two kicks from 53 yards out before missing from 57 and 56.
