Falcons To Bring In Competition For Younghoe Koo
5 years agoThe Atlanta Falcons currently have 89 players on their roster, one short of the NFL's maximum for offseason programs, and the plan looks to be for the Falcons to fill the opening with a kicker in order to add some competition for Younghoe Koo. "We're still definitely considering adding a kicker into that spot," head coach Dan Quinn said. Restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic is the likely reason that the Falcons have yet to sign another kicker. Koo will likely remain the favorite to keep his job if the Falcons bring someone else in. He was a two-time NFC Special Teams Player of the Week in his first year with Atlanta, converting 23 of his 26 field-goal tries and 15 of his 16 extra points. Koo went from being waiver wire fodder to being owned in most leagues in an offense that can move the ball consistently.
