Looking At Piñeiro
Piñeiro went undrafted out of Florida.
In addition to the 49ers, he has also spent time with the Chicago Bears, New York Jets and Carolina Panthers.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter wrote (on March 7): “Kicker Eddy Pineiro and the 49ers reached agreement today on a four-year, $17 million extension that includes $10 million guaranteed, per his agents Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey. Pineiro is now off the market and will not become a free agent this week.”
Last season, Piñeiro appeared in 14 games.
He made six field goals of 50+ yards.
Looking At The 49ers
The 49ers are coming off a year where they were the third-place team in the NFC West with a 12-5 record.
After defeating the Philadelphia Eagles, they lost to the Seattle Seahawks in the Divisional Round.
On September 10, the 49ers will play their first game of the new season when they face off against the Los Angeles Rams.
