Quote:Never heard of him. What's the scoop?
 

Giorgio Tavecchio was in competition for the Lions kicking job in 2014.   He had a noticeably better kicking summer than then rookie 7th Round pick Nate Freese ( who turned out to be a bust ) but he missed a 51 yard FG against the Jaguars in the 4th QTR of the 3rd pre-season game that likely cost him his job.  Tavecchio was released when the Lions had to cut the roster to 75.   Pre-season games are meaningless for many players but this was the ultimate football pressure situation for Tavechhio.   He didn't deliver and has never been able to establish himself since.
