Sep 23, 2024 10:23 pm: McLaughlin did not attempt any field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran kicker hasn't been used to spending the majority of a game on the sideline during his year-plus Buccaneers tenure, but Sunday was a forgettable day all the way around for Tampa Bay. The significantly subdued offensive performance -- Baker Mayfield threw for only 163 yards and took seven sacks -- kept McLaughlin from any field-goal opportunities, only the fourth time that's happened since the start of last season and the second in which the scenario also featured just a sole point-after attempt. McLaughlin should have more scoring chances in a Week 4 home matchup against the Eagles.
