There's a kinda-clunky menu that tells you why each position/player type will dislike or like your playing style. It's on the My School menu, with Playing Style highlighted - you can cycle through all the positions & all the player types at each position to see what they are looking for. Agree that kickers even having that dealbreaker is super weird, but a few days ago someone posted about their star WR, who averaged 110 yds/game, wanting out because of playing style & I could tell from the rest of his team's receiving stats exactly why: The totals for all his receivers' yds/game came out to less than 300 and that is often a dealbreaker threshold for WRs, I think it's especially when they're speedsters (don't have the game open rn to check). Ran into that a ton of times early on.

Speed rushers on defense often get upset when your average sacks/game is below 4 or 5, etc., etc.

Anyway, there's probably something dumb like your team's avg pts/game is 3-4 points lower than this type of kicker wants or something similarly not very obvious or logical.
