New 49ers kicker Matt Gay saw his peak seasons with the Rams in 2021-2022, making well over 90% of his kicks. Although his % has fallen off over past 3 seasons, Gay has still made 89.4% of his kicks under 50 yards — a solid rate. Struggles have come from 50+.
49ers are looking for short-term reliability in a backup kicker. It’s impossible to find a star on the street in November. So you sign the bandaid solution who still gives you a good percentage on the bread-and-butter kicks and move on
