Shanahan presses Pineiro to convert extra points after miss against Commanders
The 49ers kicker has missed three extra points and three field goals this season.
49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Eddy Pineiro needed to convert his extra-point kicks after another miss during the team's victory over the Commanders. Shanahan expressed dissatisfaction with the mistake but acknowledged that it had not cost the 49ers the game.
Pineiro's missed kicks this season include three field goals as well as three extra points. Shanahan said the expectation that his kicker should make the extra points was clear.
Across the past five seasons, Pineiro has failed on 14 extra-point attempts, more than any other NFL kicker. His conversion percentage over that period is the lowest among the 30 kickers with a minimum of 75 attempts.
