'11 MI K Kyle Brindza (Signed ND LOI-EE)

[IrishinSyria]

Kyle Brindza punt for 47 yds
Kyle Brindza punt for 52 yds for a touchback
Kyle Brindza punt for 36 yds, fair catch by Nelson Agholor at the USC 49
Kyle Brindza punt for 31 yds, punt out-of-bounds at the USC 45
Kyle Brindza 44 yd FG MISSED
Kyle Brindza punt for 34 yds, punt out-of-bounds at the USC 30


Something went seriously wrong with him. He was never supposed to be a great kicker, but he couldn't even punt the damn ball today (36 net yards per punt).

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

He hasn't been a good punter in a while.

 

[Irish2155]

Kyle may have just made his last kick...

Unless we play in the fury arm pit hair bowl...

 

[TheChosen1]

Great game kid all around.

Unnamed personnel executive: Class of 2015 has “no draftable kickers” | ProFootballTalk

 

[ulukinatme]

Ouch. Let's hope that exec is wrong, although Brindza was kind of a long shot anyway.

Ouch. Let's hope that exec is wrong, although Brindza was kind of a long shot anyway.

could be smoke and mirrors and this unnamed guy is aiming to draft a kicker but wants to downplay his interest

 

[dublinirish]

A Corkman with some very famous GAA roots has earned an incredible opportunity in the NFL | JOE.ie

During Lions minicamp Kyle will be joined by another "Irish" specialist in Darragh O'Neill who is a native of Cork and has some very strong sporting family links.

 

[yankeehater]

Kyle kicked FG's of 41 and 49 yards tonight. He made his only PAT as well.

He won't make the team, but hopefully he kicks well enough to get a shot in Pitt or another city who needs kicking help

 

[NDinMich]

Just nailed a 51 yarder that hit the net half way up. Ensuing kickoff was out of the back of the endzone.

[Blaise]

Well now he has a chance... One week of him Vs Barth to impress the coaches

 

[Corry]

Man that 2011 class was an epic failure.


Good for him.

 

[D-BOE34]

Wow! When was the last time a kicker was traded before his 1st regular season? Good for him.

 

[dublinirish]

Well now he has a chance... One week of him Vs Barth to impress the coaches

and Pat Murray (last year's K who had a good season but a poor preseason this season). There's talk of Murray concentrating on punting now though

 

[irishfan]

I'm actually really impressed the Bucs have somehow taken undrafted Tim Wright and turned him into Logan Mankins and now potentially their Kicker of the future.

 

[#1rish]

Hit 57 and 55-yarders today vs. the Dolphins. Seems to be making a case for himself.

Well he certainly never lacked for leg. One of the few kickers I can think of where the extra long extra point might help him.

 

[#1rish]

Bucs just cut Barth, which means Brindza made the team. Congrats to Kyle!
