A third-round pick who shone as a rookie, San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody slumped in his second year, which forced the 49ers into action this offseason. Moody was placed in a training camp competition with veteran Greg Joseph this year.

The 49ers made an eye-opening move in their kicker room on Monday that suggests Jake Moody is having a good training camp.
