Coming to Carolina
The Panthers are slated to sign Fitzgerald as an undrafted free agent, Mike Kaye of the Charlotte Observer reports.
ANALYSIS
Fitzgerald spent his entire five-year collegiate career at Florida State. During his final two seasons, he established himself as one of the top kickers in college football, converting on all 72 of his extra-point tries and 32 of 34 field-goal attempts. With Matthew Wright currently the only other kicker on Carolina's roster, Fitzgerald will likely have the opportunity to compete for a starting role throughout the summer.

Favorite to win kicking job
Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer relays that Fitzgerald enters OTAs as the favorite to win the Panthers' starting kicking job over Matthew Wright.
ANALYSIS
Fitzgerald didn't hear his name called during the 2025 NFL Draft, but he quickly caught on with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent in late April. He spent his entire five-year college career with Florida State, and over his last two seasons he converted all 72 of his extra-point attempts and went 32-for-34 on field-goal tries. Wright has the experience advantage, but a strong performance during OTAs could establish Fitzgerald as the Panthers' starting kicker heading into training camp.
