It’s been an inauspicious start to Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie kicker Roberto Aguayo’s NFL career. After missing his first extra-point attempt in Week 1 of the preseason, the second-round rookie missed an easy chip-in attempt on Saturday.

The offense set up Aguayo perfectly with a 32-yard attempt from the right hash mark.

Which he promptly shanked right.

The Bucs got plenty of criticism for taking Aguayo in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft. Traditional wisdom says that’s far too early to select a kicker. Chances are, they’re feeling just a bit of buyer’s remorse at this time.
