The Falcons had an untimely pre-game injury to kicker Younghoe Koo before Week 3’s matchup against the Bears, and it cost them 4 points over the course of the day. Koo reportedly suffered a groin strain in warm ups, but tried to gut it out over the course of the game leading to a missed XP and FG. It made a bad performance that much worse for Atlanta, and it seems that Koo is expected to miss even more time going forward.
To address that issue, the Falcons have been investigating free agents kickers over the past few days.
