I have two kickers in my depth chart in mfn70. Why on earth would my DT2 come in to kick a FG and 5 XPs?

Editing to note that my fatigue setting for kickers is 100, and nobody got injured.

Theory:

I had Kicker A as No. 1 on kickoffs and Kicker B as No. 1 on field goals. Is it possible the "pull starters after second quarter" setting meant neither would do kickoffs or field goals in the second half?

Probably.

I had this happen awhile ago when I started. I was told you cant have multiple kickers on the depth chart or it gets all messed up when they pull starters. My advice would be to start one in one game and then the other the next. I'm not sure why it's like this but you're not the first to wonder why a positional player was kicking fgs and extra points, lol.

Or you can just make sure the same player is #1 for kickoffs and FGs. Then the starter would be pulled and the backup plays, instead of both starters being pulled and your LB kicks.

I still don't understand why position players have better kicking skills than punters, and better punting skills than kickers.
