"How secure is rookie kicker Andy Borregales' job? Borregales was the first kicker selected in the 2025 NFL draft in the sixth round (No. 182), and he has had a rocky start to the season. He missed two PATs in the first half, which came after two impressive, time-consuming drives from a Drake Maye-led offense that was clicking early."
"He later made field goals from 22 and 53 yards and a PAT, but was penalized late in the fourth quarter for a kickoff not making it to the landing zone. Borregales, who also missed a 40-yard field goal in the season opener when he was 2-of-3 (good from 35 and 44) including a successful PAT, was awarded the job in training camp despite a charge made by now-Falcons kicker Parker Romo."
Week 2 opened with the Packers beating the Commanders and featured early Sunday results such as the Patriots scoring over 30 points for the first time since 2021 in a tight win over the Dolphins. The Bills and Ravens posted dominant victories over the Jets and Browns after their Week 1 showdown. Patriots rookie kicker Andy Borregales, a sixth-round pick (No. 182), struggled early with two first-half missed PATs and a prior 40-yard miss, though he made field goals from 22 and 53 yards. A turning point came when Antonio Gibson returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown immediately after a 74-yard punt-return touchdown.
