After getting zero reps in the Titans last preseason game, it looks like Travis Coons has won the starting kicking job for the Tennessee Titans.
I have been outspoken on the fact that I think leg strength is overrated as an attribute of an NFL kicker. If you have to play Devin Hester twice a year, then maybe you need to put more emphasis on it. However, for most of the teams in the NFL, the most important attribute a kicker should have is accuracy.
Coons has been very accurate as a kicker, and he deserved to win the starting job.
Maikon Bonani might be gone, but he might not be forgotten completely. With the additional two practice squad spots, there is a strong possibility that the Titans will sign Bonani to a practice squad. That would allow the Titans to monitor his progress as a kicker and if neither is really looking like the future, they could scrap that and bring in a veteran.
