Since being signed by the Atlanta Falcons before the 2019 season, Younghoe Koo has emerged as one of the most trusted kickers in the NFL. He could consistently drill kicks from 50+ and you knew you could count on the Pro Bowler in clutch moments. Or so we thought.
The 31-year-old was primarily at fault for the Falcons’ Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers. With an opportunity to send the contest to overtime, all Koo had to do was connect on a 44-yard field goal. But his attempt sailed wide right, and it resulted in a heartbreaking defeat in front of the home crowd.
