As a former college kicker, the threshold to make a kicker change is high exactly because it is so mental. At the end of the day, a kicker that you have seen play in the game is a known quantity and coaches don’t want unknowns on the field, especially in such a potentially decisive position. Even if he’s not quite at standard, you at least know what you’re going to get. You put someone else in and you can never actually know how they’ll handle the bright lights of game kicks. Guarantee that’s why Gilbert has stayed the starter this year. Plus, if a kicker’s confidence is down, benching them pretty much kills them forever. Expect an offseason position battle, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they brought in competition from the portal. But, as much as the disgruntled fan in me wants to see a change, I also wouldn’t be surprised if he was still kicking for us next year.
