New York Jets sign kicker Greg Zuerlein

The New York Jets have signed kicker Greg Zuerlein, the team announced Saturday.

Zuerlein will look to rebound in 2022 after missing six field goal attempts (going 29-of-35) and six point-after tries (42-of-48) in 2021 with the Dallas Cowboys, who released him earlier this month. In 2020, Zuerlein set a Cowboys team record by making 34 field goals.

The Jets have been cycling through kickers ever since Jason Myers, an All-Pro in 2018, departed for the Seattle Seahawks in free agency. In 2019, they tried to replace him with Chandler Catanzaro, who retired unexpectedly in training camp.
