Chad Ryland will have some competition for the Patriots’ kicker job in 2024.
New England has agreed to terms on a deal with kicker Joey Slye, ESPN’s Mike Reiss reported Thursday. The terms of the deal have yet to be reported.
Slye has bounced around the league since he went undrafted in 2018, being rostered six by six teams. After a team didn’t sign him in 2018, Slye joined the Giants in 2019, but was cut during training camp.
The veteran found his first real NFL home shortly after being cut by the Giants, signing with the Panthers in August 2019.
