With the Chargers starting kicker job up for grabs, no one was able to move the needle on Sunday.
In fact, the showings were so underwhelming that they received boos from fans who were in attendance for the team’s Fan Fest at SoFi Stadium.
Michael Badgley went 4-for-7, with his misses coming from 41, 49 and 51 yards. Badgley did manage to make one from 55 yards out to end a two-minute drive.
Tristan Vizcaino finished 4-for-6, missing kicks from 38 and 49 yards. Undrafted free agent Alex Kessman’s day wasn’t any better, ending his session 2-for-6.
Sunday’s performance didn’t offer much to be optimistic about for those watching, considering incompetent special teams is what cost Los Angeles some games last season.
All kickers have split the uprights from beyond 50 yards up to this point, but no one has separated themselves from the pack when it comes to consistent accuracy.
Still, with a handful of practices and three preseason games, there is plenty of time for someone to prove themselves to the coaching staff.
