    See for yourself! He had one miss last year from 40-49. He has been in the 80% range throughout his career outside of one year. From 30 yards in he has been basically automatic in his career. And the past two seasons he hasn't missed a kick from 40 yards in.

    On paper he is a HUGE upgrade.

    I've watched just about every coastal game the last 2 years. This kid is accurate and clutch. Big moments will not bother him.

    Can you explain the missed extra points? Looking at the stats I feel like they're an anomaly.

    Can't explain it but I do know the majority came in blowouts so maybe just a lack of focus on those but who knows. Kickers are like closers they're really weird

    I guess there could be a blocked kick or two in there but that is a little unusual, especially for him. Regardless, that is a big get.

    If we can be accurate from 40 yards in that would be swell.

    Plascencia is a punter and kickoff specialist. He's a great punter and that's probably what he'll windup doing and handling kickoffs.

    His name reminds me of some Italian soccer player that gets his shot at being a kicker in the NFL. And nails it every time. Can't speak English but as long as he keeps making field goals he doesn't have to.
