K Stephen Hauschka

College: NC State (UFA with Minnesota Vikings)

31 years old, 10th season

2016 stats: 16 games, 33-37 field goals, 89.2 field goal percentage, 29-35 extra points

B. Before I say anything, I’m just happy Dan Carpenter is gone. From a field goal standpoint, Stephen Hauschka is definitely an upgrade for the Buffalo Bills. Looking at his numbers from 50 yards and out, it’s hard to disagree with the signing. One of the biggest complaints with Carpenter was his extra points and unfortunately, that doesn’t get much better with Hauschka. Hopefully he can be more accurate with the extra points, but either way the Buffalo Bills got a worthy kicker and saved a roster spot since he can do kickoffs.. K. Buffalo Bills. STEPHEN HAUSCHKA
