Eddy Pineiro Ready For First Game With 49ers
Eddy Pineiro signed with the team on September 10, in the wake of the release of Jake Moody. Pineiro does not have Moody's leg strength, but he is certainly more accurate. Despite attempting twice as many field goals as Moody in his career (126 to 62), Pineiro has one fewer miss (15 to Moody's 16). San Francisco's offense has been bitten by the injury bug, including quarterback Brock Purdy (toe, shoulder), who has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints. With Mac Jones at the helm, the offense's potential takes a step back, placing greater reliance on the team's kicker to put up points, however possible. Consider Pineiro a serviceable streamer for Week 2.
