Contract puts him tied for tenth in AAV.

Top is Butker at $6.4 million. Prater and Folk are 21st at $3.75 million, then there is a $1.7 million drop off for 23rd.
A nice middle of the road deal for a good kicker.

Color me a little surprised he resigned with us. I was leaning fairly heavily on him testing the market. I wasn't convinced he wanted to stay in GB. I also expected it to cost a bit more. So I'm happy with the deal.

Top Kickers make $6.5M and 12 of them make more than $5M per. And all those contracts were signed under much smaller salary caps.
This is top 15-20 kicker money, probably if you look at like the middle of this contract.
I was expecting closer to $5.5M honeslty.

I was hoping his legal troubles might drive the price down a little. Either way it’s a good deal. Can’t go back to searching for kickers in a championship window.

Fantastic signing. He and Whelan covered up a lot of sins on STs. Now we need to replace Orzech.
Great middle of the road contract. Only final thing that needs to change is for McMannus to have a number change.

He was cleared. Stayed out of the news all season and kicked over 90%. I think that is behind him but I also think we got the best shake because we were the team that let him back in the NFL door.

and maybe a better deal due to that miss against the Eagles.

Genius move on the part of Gutenscheissenbumpst for a change. Could be a sign that Gutey is having constructive light bulb moments finally.

After all the struggles we've had with kickers I'm pleased we resigned him.

Good, but I just hope last year wasn't a fluke. All his other seasons average out to only 81%

When was the last time the packers are going to end up having the same kicker, long snapper and holder in back to back years?

Uh, no, check out the link. His most attempts over 50 in a season was 15 in 2020, and his average was 8 attempts per year.

Yep, couldn't read in my addled state
Regardless, last year trends positively, figure he feels the team had his back after the allegations.
