Falcons Add Ben Sauls, Giants Sign Younghoe Koo as Kicker Shuffle Continues

Both teams use practice-squad signings to stabilize unsettled kicking situations.

Overview

  • Atlanta signed rookie Ben Sauls to the practice squad on Tuesday after Parker Romo went 0-for-2 in a 30-0 loss to Carolina, with Raheem Morris vowing to create competition at kicker.
  • Romo remains on the roster following a 5-for-5 outing in Week 2 before missing from 49 and 55 yards in Week 3, leaving his role under evaluation.
  • The Giants added former Falcons Pro Bowler Younghoe Koo to their practice squad following Graham Gano’s pregame groin/hip injury against the Chiefs.
  • Gano managed a short field goal despite the injury, but his near-term availability is unclear, prompting New York to secure insurance at the position.
  • Koo was released by Atlanta after a Week 1 miss capped a 2024 decline to 73.5% on field goals, and a practice-squad spot gives New York a potential Week 4 option if needed.
