Brandon McManus Struggled With Accuracy Last Year
Despite his strong leg, struggled with accuracy last season, particularly from long distances.
He converted only 8 out of 13 attempts (61.5%) from 50-plus yards. Additionally, McManus has been inconsistent in clutch situations throughout his career, except for the Broncos’ 2015 Super Bowl season.
Being among the top-10 highest-paid kickers in the NFL, expectations from fans were high, and some believed that the Broncos should have received a better performance from him.
Hence, for better or worse, the deeds have been done. The outcomes and consequences of this decision will unfold over time.
For now, it is time for McManus to navigate the next chapter of his career, while the Broncos will seek to address their kicking situation moving forward.
