2024 RTSports Outlook

Pineiro had his best season as a pro last year, posting very good numbers his first season with the Panthers. He was eighth overall in kicker scoring. He made 94.3 percent of his field goals, missing just two. He also scored 129 points. It was the first time in his career he topped 100 points. Pineiro will continue to start for the Panthers, re-signing with the team after the season. Pineiro doesn't have a booming leg but it is pretty strong. He is very accurate and continues to get better with more seasoning.

FANTASY OUTLOOK: Pineiro might see a bit of a regression this year, but should be considered a low-end No. 1 fantasy kicker. He will get his chances and score around 120 points.

Player Notes
Jan 7 11:50am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) is officially inactive for Week 18 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This news was widely expected after the Panthers listed him as doubtful heading into the weekend. The 28-year-old had appeared in Carolina's previous 16 games this season, converting 86 percent of his field goals. This week, he'll be replaced by Matthew Wright, who remains off the fantasy radar given the Panthers' ongoing offensive struggles.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) missed practice all week due to his right-hamstring injury and is doubtful to kick in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 28-year-old kicker will wrap up the 2023 season with two straight missed games to close out the year. Overall, he made 25 of his 29 field-goal attempts (86.2 percent) while missing three of his 20 extra-point tries over 15 games played. With Pineiro unlikely to play this weekend, the Panthers will elevate Matthew Wright from their practice squad to the active roster for the final game of the season. Fantasy managers in DFS or those still playing for a championship in Week 18 should be looking to avoid Wright.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) did not practice for the second day this week while nursing a hamstring injury. Pineiro strained the muscle during pregame warmups ahead of Week 17's contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars and was held out of the game. Kickoff duties were handled by linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill and there were no extra-point or field goal opportunities in that game. The Panthers signed Matthew Wright to their practice squad on Tuesday in case Pineiro can't recover in time to play in the season finale against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Jan 3 9:20pm ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro did not attempt a kick in his team's 26-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 17 as he felt tightness in his hamstring during pre-game warmups and did not play. The veteran kicker is still dealing with tightness in his hamstring as he did not participate in practice on Wednesday as the Panthers began preparing to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the regular-season finale. Carolina signed Matthew Wright to their practice squad on Tuesday as a backup plan in case Pineiro is unable to play in Week 18. Stay tuned to Carolina's practice reports for the remainder of the week.

Dec 30 9:50am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made his lone field goal and hit one of his three extra points in a loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. Pineiro has now made 25 of his 29 field goals and 17 of 20 extra points for the Panthers in 2023. In Week 17 he will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road. The Jaguars have been tough on kickers in 2023 as they are allowing just the 24th-most fantasy points per game to the position. The Carolina offense hasn't been a high-scoring unit this season which caps Pineiro's upside most weeks. He is not a recommended fantasy option heading into the fantasy championship round of the playoffs.

Dec 23 7:30am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made all three of his field goals in a 9-7 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. The veteran kicker has been a reliable option for the Panthers in 2023 as he's made 24 of his 28 field goals and all but one of his 17 extra-point tries. Pineiro will look for another productive game in Week 16 against the Green Bay Packers. The Packers have been solid against kickers this season as they are allowing just the 20th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pineiro is not a recommended fantasy option heading into the fantasy playoff semifinals.

Dec 16 7:30am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made two of his three field goals, including a 47-yarder, in a 28-6 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. The veteran has been solid for the Panthers this season, with 21 field goals in 25 attempts thus far. In Week 15 he will take on the Atlanta Falcons at home in a divisional matchup. Atlanta is allowing the fourth-most fantasy points per game to kickers in 2023. That being said, the Carolina offense has been one of the worst in the league and can't be trusted to provide Pineiro with consistent field-goal-kicking opportunities. Treat him as a low-end fantasy option in Week 15.

From RotoBaller

Dec 9 7:10am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made his lone field goal and added an extra point in his team's Week 13 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Pineiro has been mostly accurate in his second season with the Panthers as he's made 19 of his 22 field goals and missed just one of his 17 extra points. He will head on the road to take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. The Saints have been league-average against kickers this season as they are allowing the 16th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pineiro is tough to trust in fantasy due to a poor Carolina offense that has generally struggled to move the ball this season.

Dec 2 8:20am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made his lone field goal and added an extra point in a Week 12 loss to the Tennessee Titans. Pineiro will look to get more involved in Week 13's road matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tampa Bay is allowing just the 19th-most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers this season and Carolina's offense has been one of the worst in the league this season. Those two factors combine to make Pineiro a low-end fantasy option heading into Week 13. Fantasy managers should be able to find better streaming options on the waiver wire this week.

Nov 25 7:40am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made his lone field-goal try and added an extra point in a Week 11 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The veteran has been a reliable kicker in 2023, hitting 17 of his 20 field goals and 14 of his 15 extra points. The problem for Pineiro is that the Panthers haven't been providing him with many chances to make kicks as the offense has struggled for much of the season. After a blowout loss to the Cowboys last week, Carolina will take on the Tennessee Titans on the road in Week 12. The Titans have been a plus matchup for kickers this season as they are allowing the fifth-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pineiro comes in ranked outside of the top-20 fantasy kickers heading into Week 12.

From RotoBaller

Nov 16 7:00pm ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made two of his three field goals and his lone extra point in a Week 10 loss to the Chicago Bears. The veteran kicker has now hit 16 of his 19 field-goal attempts in 2023 while chipping in 13 extra points. He will now face off against the Dallas Cowboys at home in Week 11. The Dallas defense has been excellent all season and could make it difficult for the Panthers to move the ball in Week 11. Furthermore, the Cowboys have been tough on fantasy kickers as they are allowing the second-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Pineiro will not be a recommended fantasy option this weekend.

From RotoBaller

Nov 8 9:00pm ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made both of his field goals and chipped in an extra point in a Week 9 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Pineiro has been a reliable kicker for the Panthers in 2023 as he's made 14 of his 16 field goals and all but one of his 13 extra points. He will kick on the road against the Chicago Bears in Week 10's Thursday game. The Bears have been a plus matchup for kickers this season as they are allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the position. That being said, the Carolina offense isn't good enough to get Pineiro inside the top-20 fantasy options in Week 10.

From RotoBaller

Nov 3 6:50pm ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made all three of his field goals and added an extra point in his team's win over the Houston Texans in Week 8. He will look to stay hot at home against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 9. The Colts have struggled against kickers in 2023 as they are allowing the most fantasy points per game in the league to the position. Pineiro has been reliable this season as he's made all but two of his 14 field-goal attempts thus far. He is a mid-tier fantasy option in Week 9.

From RotoBaller

Oct 28 7:00am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro comes out of his bye in Week 7 to face off against the Houston Texans in Week 8. The last time Pineiro took the field, he missed his lone field-goal try and hit all three of his extra points back in a Week 6 loss to the Miami Dolphins. The Texans have been tough on fantasy kickers in 2023 as they are allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Pineiro is RotoBaller's No. 24-ranked kicker for Week 8, so fantasy managers should be able to locate a better option for their lineups this weekend.

From RotoBaller

Oct 13 8:00am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made his lone field goal and went 3-for-3 on extra points in a Week 5 loss to the Detroit Lions. Pineiro will now take on the Miami Dolphins on the road in Week 6. The Dolphins have been a top offense in the NFL this season, a fact that should force the Panthers to be a bit more aggressive on offense if they fall behind early. Pineiro has been accurate in 2023, making nine of his 10 field goals, but the Panthers are middle-of-the-road in overall field goals attempted. Pineiro can be left on waivers for Week 6.

From RotoBaller

Sep 30 8:20am ET

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made two of his three field goals and added three extra points in his team's Week 3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Pineiro will now take on the Minnesota Vikings at home in Bank of America Stadium in Week 4. The Vikings have been solid against kickers this season, allowing just the 17th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pineiro has made six of seven field goals on the year, including two from 50+ yards, but the Carolina offense isn't moving the ball into scoring position frequently enough to trust him as a fantasy starter this weekend.
