Falcons 'Have to Fix' Kicking Situation, Could Bring Younghoe Koo Competition
- The Atlanta Falcons have been one of the NFL's best field goal-kicking teams over the past decade. Dating back to 2015, Atlanta has made the second most field goals in the NFL with 306 and boasts an 86.
The Atlanta Falcons are facing challenges with their kicking situation as they head into the 2024 season, prompting discussions about potentially bringing in competition for their current kicker, Younghoe Koo.

The Falcons' management is keen on addressing this issue to avoid any potential pitfalls in their upcoming season's performance.
