Zane Gonzalez: Picked up by Washington
The Commanders signed Zane Gonzalez to their practice squad Friday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.Gonzalez's most recent in-game action came in 2022 with the Panthers, when he appeared in 12 regular-season games, making 20 of his 22 field-goal attempts and converting 22 of his 23 extra-point tries.

Zane Gonzalez: Let go by San Fran
The 49ers released Zane Gonzalez (calf) from injured reserve Tuesday with an injury settlement, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.After suffering a calf strain in San Francisco's Aug. 25 preseason finale, Gonzalez was moved to injured reserve last week ahead of final roster cutdowns. The transaction would have kept Gonzalez out for the rest of the season, but by agreeing to the settlement, he'll be able to hit the open market and sign with a team as soon as he's healthy. The move also clears cap space for San Francisco and leaves practice-squad member Matthew Wright as the top challenger to Jake Moody (quadricep) for the 49ers' kicking duties. Moody is the only kicker on the 53-man roster at the moment, but the 49ers could elevate Wright from the practice squad for the Week 1 game against Pittsburgh if there's any concern about the former's health.

49ers' Zane Gonzalez: Out a few weeks
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Saturday that Zane Gonzalez will be sidelined for a few weeks due to a calf injury, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.Gonzalez presumably injured his calf in pregame warmups ahead of Friday's exhibition against the Chargers, which left the San Francisco 49ers without an available placekicker due to rookie Jake Moody's (quadriceps) own health concern. Moody is considered day-to-day versus Gonzalez's week-to-week prognosis, so the former seemingly has a leg up to be San Francisco's kicker Week 1at Pittsburgh.

49ers' Zane Gonzalez: Dealt to 49ers
Zane Gonzalez, who previously appeared set to be released by the Panthers, was instead traded to the San Francisco 49ers on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Gonzalez missed the majority of the 2022 season with a groin injury.

Gonzalez joins a 49ers roster that was previously without a kicker, and it remains to be seen if San Francisco brings any training camp competition to challenge him.

Panthers' Zane Gonzalez: Hits IR, done for the year
The Carolina Panthers placed Zane Gonzalez (groin) on injured reserve Tuesday, possibly ending his 2022 season, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.Gonzalez may require surgery to address a groin injury he sustained during Carolina's preseason finale versus Buffalo, and the timing of the 27-year-old kicker's placement on IR means he will miss the entire 2022 campaign unless he works out an injury settlement with the team. The Panthers don't currently have another kicker on the roster, meaning the team will have to prioritize making a signing in the aftermath of league-wide roster cutdowns.
