49ers kicker Eddy Pineiro misses another extra point on SF’s second home run

San Francisco 49ers kicker Eddy Pineiro failed to successfully kick an extra point for the second consecutive game in the team's second home victory on Monday night. The missed attempt followed Christian McCaffrey's 1-yard touchdown run in the first quarter at Levi's Stadium. The incident occurred with approximately four minutes left in the opening quarter, following quarterback Brock Purdy's fourth-and-3 conversion with a scramble for a first down.

Pineiro, who has been more dependable on field goals than extra points since joining the franchise in 2025, has now missed a total of seven extra points during his tenure with the team, compared to only four missed field goals. This inconsistency, which has persisted into the 2026 season, contrasts with Pineiro's stellar 2025 performance, where he led the NFL in field-goal percentage with a 96.6% success rate.

In March, the 49ers rewarded the former Florida kicker with a four-year, $17 million contract extension following his impressive field-goal performance. Despite the extra-point struggles, the 49ers have maintained an undefeated start, with Pineiro contributing a game-winning 44-yard field goal against the Seattle Seahawks just a week prior.
