Dolphins kicker Dan Carpenter appears to be taking the lead in the competition for the starting job with rookie Caleb Sturgis, reports the Miami Herald.
With Sturgis' injured groin still mending, Carpenter has pounced in the kicking competition.
"I'm not changing anything I'm doing," Carpenter said. "I'm working just as hard as I was the last two years when no one was here. Nothing's changed. I'm just going to work and trying to make every kick."
