The 49ers kicker is coming off the best year of his career. He’s the fifth-most accurate kicker of all-time, but he stays highly motivated entering year No. 14.
Coach Kyle Shanahan appreciated the fan response during the 49ers’ 44-33 upset of Jacksonville on Christmas Eve, although he would like fans to be a little more quiet when the offense enters the red zone.
Down 23-22, Jimmy Garoppolo and the 49ers offense took the field at their own 25 yard line with 1:06 remaining in Sunday’s game against the Titans. Six plays and a minute later, 49ers kicker Robbie Gould hit his sixth field of the afternoon to give San Francisco their third consecutive win since making a potentially franchise altering switch at QB.
Just an hour after news broke that former 49ers kicker Phil Dawson is reportedly signing with the Arizona Cardinals, Alex Flanagan of NFL Network is reporting that the 49ers have agreed to terms with former Giants kicker Robbie Gould.
