It's been a dramatic fall from grace for Younghoe Koo, and the former Falcons standout is not off to a hot start in the Big Apple. After signing with the New York Giants' practice squad earlier this week, the expectation was that he would be activated to kick in Week 4 against the Chargers after Graham Gano was placed on IR with a groin injury.
Instead, Koo’s comeback bid hit another snag. Despite early reports suggesting he had won New York’s kicker competition, that turned out to be far from reality. At the eleventh hour, the Giants handed the job to Jude McAtamney, leaving the 31-year-old on the outside looking in once again.
