Overview
- Gay missed attempts from 51 and 56 yards in Sunday’s 16-13 overtime loss to the Dolphins in Madrid, with the 56-yarder a potential game-winner.
- He finished 13-of-19 on field goals this season (68.4%) and 4-of-9 from 50-plus yards, though he made all 22 extra points.
- Coach Dan Quinn said the move was about overall performance rather than one game, noting, “We wanted it to work long term… The performance, you’ve got to have it.”
- Jake Moody joins from Chicago’s practice squad after going 8-of-9 over two games for the Bears, including a game-winning kick against Washington in Week 6.
- Gay goes to waivers and could become a free agent if unclaimed, while Washington uses its bye to acclimate Moody before hosting Denver in Week 13 with a 3-8 record.
