Goes on IR
Atlanta placed Koo on injured reserve Wednesday, after the kicker was believed to have aggravated a right hip injury in Monday's 15-9 win over the Raiders, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Koo hadn't been included on the Falcons' Week 15 injury report before playing in Las Vegas, though Atlanta had listed him on its report back in Week 13 due to the hip issue. He converted an extra-point attempt and field goals from 40 and 48 yards Monday before misfiring on his fourth and final kick of the night, a 42-yard try with 5:31 remaining in the fourth quarter. Koo may have aggravated the hip issue on that attempt, and with his move to injured reserve, he'll have to miss the final three…read more

Headed for IR
The Falcons are expected to place Koo on injured reserve this week after he suffered an undisclosed injury in Monday's 15-9 win over the Raiders, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The nature of Koo's injury likely won't be revealed until Atlanta releases its first Week 16 injury report later Wednesday, but his expected move to IR means that he'll miss the final three games of the regular season plus the wild-card round of the playoffs, should the Falcons clinch a spot in the postseason. With Koo set to go on IR, the Falcons plan to sign Riley Patterson off the Browns' practice squad to handle kicking duties. The 30-year-old Koo knocked down at least 86 percent of his…read more

Nursing injury after Monday's game
Head coach Raheem Morris said that Koo "kind of hurt himself a bit" in Monday's 15-9 win over the Raiders, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports. "We'll figure it out more [Wednesday] after the medical things get in," Morris said.
Analysis: Koo knocked down his lone extra-point try and made field-goal attempts of 48 and 40 yards before missing wide left on his final kick of the night, a 42-yarder with 5:31 remaining in the fourth quarter. It's unclear if the injury Morris alluded to contributed to the miss, but Koo's 73.5 percent FG% in 2024 (25-for-34, including two misses in the 30-39 yard range) is by far a career low.

Bounces back with perfect showing
Koo made both field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: While Koo was perfect Sunday, both field-goal attempts were shorter than a PAT. The veteran kicker is on track for his worst field-goal percentage as a Falcon, but he's shown a slight improvement in recent weeks, going 8-for-9 on kicks over his last three appearances.

Struggles continue in Week 13
Koo made two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Koo missed his first kick wide right from 35 yards out before making his next three, including a 41-yard field goal in the third quarter. The veteran kicker has been playing through a hip issue, and it appears to be impacting his performance. He's gone 12-for-20 on field-goal tries over Atlanta's last eight games after making his first nine attempts. Koo finished with a field-goal percentage of 86 or higher in each of his first five seasons as a Falcon but has made only 72 percent of his field…read more

Good to go
Koo (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Despite drawing a questionable tag, Koo was expected to suit up Sunday after logging a full practice Friday. After going 2-for-7 on field-goal attempts from Weeks 7-10, Koo bounced back with a perfect outing against Denver in Week 11 before Atlanta's Week 12 bye. It's been a mixed bag for the veteran kicker this season, but the Falcons' improved offense has given Koo more opportunities than in previous seasons.

Koo (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers but is expected to play, Will McFadden of atlantafalcons.com reports.
Analysis: The Falcons signed Riley Patterson to their practice squad this week, but it now appears he won't be needed after Koo managed full practice participation Friday. Falcons coach Raheem Morris suggested Friday that Koo is likely to play.

Working through hip issue
Koo (hip) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's injury report, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Koo wasn't on Wednesday's injury report, indicating that the hip issue is a new one. The Falcons do not currently have a placekicker on the practice squad, but if one is signed, that would indicate that Koo is in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Provides team's only points Sunday
Koo made both of his two field-goal tries during Sunday's 38-6 loss at Denver.
Analysis: Atlanta was only able to muster 226 yards of total offense in Week 11, leaving little work for their kicker. Koo made good on his limited chances though, including hitting a 51-yarder late in the second quarter. He'll hope for more opportunities after the Falcons' bye in Week 12.

Misses three kicks in rough outing
Koo missed three of four field-goal attempts but made both extra-point tries during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Koo's first field goal missed wide left from 53 yards out and his last attempt from 46 yards hit the right upright. He's now 3-for-9 from beyond 40 yards over his last six games. Koo also had a 35-yarder blocked Sunday. The veteran kicker has certainly had some heroics in his career, including a career-long 58-yard, game-winning field goal against the Saints in Week 4, but he's currently in a funk after missing three field goals in a three-point loss to a divisional foe.

Zero field-goal attempts Week 9
Koo didn't attempt a field goal but made all three extra-point tries during Sunday's 27-21 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: For the first time this season, Koo didn't attempt a field goal. He also lost out on a fourth extra-point try, as the Falcons went for two after a fourth-quarter touchdown, which put them up 27-13. After a perfect start to the season, Koo is 7-for-11 on field-goal attempts over the past five weeks, with all his misses coming from beyond 40 yards. His inconsistency from deep is concerning, but the Falcons' offense has been impressive, so Koo should get plenty of chances to bounce back.

Misses another FG attempt
Koo made one of two field-goal attempts and all four extra-point tries during Sunday's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: After a perfect start to the season, Koo has gone just 7-for-11 on field-goal attempts over the past four weeks, with all his misses coming from beyond 40 yards. His inconsistency from deep drops his value, but the Falcons' offense continues to impress, meaning Koo should get plenty of chances to bounce back.

Misses lone FG attempt
Koo made both extra-point tries but missed his lone field-goal attempt during Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Koo's lone field-goal attempt came from 54 yards out, and he's now 5-for-7 from beyond 50 this season. This was the first time the Falcons' offense failed to score at least 20 points since Week 3 against the Chiefs, but they should be able to move the ball against the Buccaneers' porous defense in Week 8, making Koo a bounce-back candidate.

Busy day in Week 6
Koo made all three of his field-goal tries and all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 38-20 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Koo didn't attempt a kick beyond 35 yards but still delivered a quality performance for fantasy managers. It was also a nice bounce-back effort from the veteran after he went 3-for-5 on field-goal tries in Week 5, including a blocked 54-yarder. The Falcons' offense has picked up steam, scoring 74 points over the last two weeks, so Koo should remain a strong play moving forward.

Salvages rocky start
Koo made three of five field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries during Thursday's 36-30 overtime win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Koo actually missed his first field-goal attempt twice, getting a second try after his first one was waved off by a penalty. He also had a 54-yarder blocked. However, he salvaged his performance by sinking a game-tying, 52-yarder as time expired in regulation. The Falcons' offense has picked up steam, and Koo is benefitting. Over the last three weeks, Koo has gone 8-for-10 from beyond 40 yards, including five 50-plus makes and a perfect 7-for-7 on extra-point tries.

Busy day ends with game-winner
Koo made both extra-point tries and all four field-goal attempts during Sunday's 26-24 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Coming into Sunday, Koo had attempted five field goals through three games, including only one attempt from beyond 40 yards. However, he was put to the test versus a division rival and rose to the occasion. Koo connected on four attempts beyond 40 on Sunday, including a career-high 58-yarder with two seconds left in the fourth quarter to give the Falcons the lead. Koo hasn't missed a kick this season and remains a strong play as long as Atlanta's offense can move the ball efficiently.

Nails 50-yarder in loss
Koo made both extra-point tries and his only field-goal attempt during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Koo hasn't missed a kick this season and nailed his first attempt from 50-plus yards. Last year, the veteran kicker went just 3-for-6 from beyond 50, so his effortless boot in the fourth quarter on Sunday Night Football against the reigning champs was an encouraging sign for Koo's upside moving forward.

Perfect in Monday's win
Koo made all three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Monday's 22-21 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: In order, Koo made field goals from 39, 22 and 34 yards. Arguably, his most difficult kick was the go-ahead extra point with 34 seconds left in the fourth quarter after Kirk Cousins found Drake London wide-open for a touchdown. Koo also had an extra-point opportunity taken away, as the Falcons aggressively decided to go for a two-point conversion after taking a 15-10 lead late in the third quarter. Koo has yet to miss a kick through two games but hasn't attempted a field goal past 40 yards.

Perfect but quiet
Koo made his only extra-point try and field goal attempt in Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Koo kicked a 24-yard field goal on the Falcons' opening drive, then added the extra point on a Kyle Pitts touchdown late in the second quarter. Other than the kickoff to open the second half, the Georgia Southern product remained on the sideline for the remainder of the matchup. Next up for Koo and the Falcons is a Week 2 matchup on MNF against the Eagles.

Sports leg sleeve at practice
Koo sported a sleeve on his kicking leg during Monday's practice, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Koo made both of his attempts during Atlanta's preseason opener, including a 53-yarder in the third quarter. The reasoning behind the leg sleeve remains unclear, but Ledbetter noted that Koo missed a 51-yard attempt during Monday's practice. Koo hasn't missed a game over the past three seasons.

Solid despite long-distance misses
Koo made 32 of 37 field-goal attempts and 27 of 28 extra-point tries across 17 appearances during the 2023 campaign.
Analysis: For a second straight season, Koo went exactly 32-for-37 on field-goal tries. In the previous two campaigns, he went 27-for-29 and 37-for-39, respectively, and the biggest difference between the separate two-year stretches is his efficiency from beyond 50 yards. In 2020 and 2021, Koo went 12-for-13 from 50-plus, but he's made just 10 of his last 17 attempts from that distance. Koo's long-range accuracy was never his strong suit, but it's disappointing to see him getting worse in that department…read more

Poor showing in Chicago
Koo made one of three field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Koo's 50-yard field-goal attempt was short to end the first drive of the game, and he's now missed three straight from 50 or farther after starting the year 3-for-3 on such kicks. He also hit the left upright with a 42-yard attempt to end the Falcons' second offensive drive. Before that miss, Koo was 10-for-11 on attempts between 40 and 49 yards out. Koo made his final three kicks, including a 38-yard field goal, to somewhat salvage the performance. Koo's struggles on Sunday could be attributed…read more

Busy day in win
Koo made all five of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 29-10 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Koo missed a 49-yard attempt in the second quarter, but it was negated by an offsides penalty. He finished that drive with a 23-yard chip shot and ended the first half with a 47-yarder. He added three more field goals (41, 35 and 25) in the second half as Atlanta extended its lead, giving him a season-high five made field goals.

Non-factor in week 15
Koo (illness) didn't attempt a field goal and made his only extra-point try during Sunday's 9-7 loss to Carolina.
Analysis: Koo was added to the injury report Saturday due to an illness but still suited up for the contest. However, he didn't attempt a field goal for just the second time this season. After being one of the most productive kickers in the NFL from Weeks 5-13, he's dropped back-to-back duds. Last week, Koo missed a pair of 50-yard attempts, which has never been his strong suit, and this week, his lack of production was due to Atlanta's inept offense.

Has illness, questionable for Sunday
Koo was added to the Falcons' Week 15 injury report Saturday due to an illness, making him questionable for Sunday's game in Carolina, Scott Bair of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Atlanta didn't make a corresponding move to add a kicker to the active roster, so the team may feel confident that Koo will be able to play through his ailment, even if he isn't 100 percent. Still, his status for Week 15 won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Koo missed two of three field-goal attempts and made both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Koo began by converting from 20 yards but subsequently hit the right upright from 50 and went wide left with a 52-yarder. In the end, those misses contributed toward the Falcons falling short. Through 13 games, he now sports 95 points total.

He didn't show any ill effects during the win, making all four of his kicks, including a 39-yarder in the fourth quarter to make it a two-score game.

Cleared to play
Koo (back) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against New Orleans, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Koo has played every game this season and missed just one field-goal attempt and one PAT. That he has far more of the former (22) than the latter (15) is a testament both to Koo's reliability and the Falcons' dysfunction on offense. The team is going back to Desmond Ridder under center after a bye, playing at home against the Saints in a game whose winner will reside in first place in the NFC South.

Koo made his only field-goal attempt and both point-after tries during Sunday's 25-23 loss to Arizona.
Analysis: Koo was limited to just three kicks after making a season-high six last week against the Vikings. Regardless, he's still made 18 kicks (12 field goals) over his last four games and hasn't missed since Week 3. The Falcons' offense is inconsistent, especially now that they're fully embedded in a quarterback controversy, but Koo remains one of the more consistent placekickers in the NFL.

Koo made his only field-goal attempt and lone extra-point try during Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Commanders.
Analysis: Koo hasn't missed a kick in three straight games after a shaky start to the campaign, but he also hasn't received many opportunities. The Falcons fell behind by double figures early Sunday, so they were playing for touchdowns. If the Falcons continue to dig themselves deep holes, Koo simply won't get enough kicks to be a quality fantasy option.

Game-winning kick
Koo made both of his field-goal attempts and his only point-after try during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Koo was off to a shaky start this year, but he put those concerns behind him with a quality performance versus Houston. He wasn't asked to go beyond his range, which helps, but this is exactly the type of production we've come to expect from the sixth-year kicker. Koo has never had the biggest leg, but he consistently makes the kicks he should and has been lights out with the game on the line, sinking eight game-winning kicks over the past three years.

Koo didn't attempt a field goal and made his only extra-point try during Sunday's 23-7 loss to Jacksonville.
Analysis: The Falcons fell behind by two scores early and reached Jacksonville's territory on only four of their 10 drives. Three of those ended in turnovers, and one resulted in a Drake London touchdown. Koo has struggled to start 2023, but this dud can be blamed on Atlanta's failure to move the ball consistently. Koo has proven he can bounce back, but he'll need some help from Bijan Robinson and company moving forward.

Misses 47-yard attempt
Koo made two of three field-goal attempts and didn't attempt a point-after try during Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Koo has missed a kick in back-to-back games. He missed a point-after try in Week 2 versus Green Bay and pulled a 47-yard field-goal attempt wide left during Sunday's double-digit loss. Since becoming a full-time starter in 2020, Koo has missed just 16 kicks. However, nine of those have come over his last 20 appearances. It's not time to hit the panic button just yet, as Koo has been resilient after wayward stretches in his career.

Analysis: Koo made a 24-yard field goal in the first quarter to open the scoring, but he missed an extra-point attempt after a Drake London touchdown in the second quarter. The veteran kicker bounced back in a big way in the second half and connected on all three of his field-goal attempts, including a go-ahead 25-yarder with under a minute left in the game.

Analysis: Koo tied the game at 10 with a 49-yard field goal in the third quarter, but that was his only field-goal try, as the Falcons' offense was efficient in Carolina's territory. The undrafted kicker got off to a shaky start during the preseason, missing two extra-point attempts in the opener, but as expected, Koo was solid in the regular-season opener and remains one of the more reliable kickers in the league.

Shaky start to preseason
Koo made two of his four extra-point tries and both of his field-goal attempts across three preseason games.
Analysis: Koo got off to a shaky start in the preseason, missing two of his three extra-point tries in the opener. However, he was able to settle down in the second exhibition and made all three of his kicks, including field goals from 36 and 45 yards. Koo didn't get an attempt in the preseason finale, as Atlanta's offense was blanked by Pittsburgh. Despite the early struggles, Koo's job remains safe, as he's been one of the more reliable kickers over the past four seasons. He could also see a boost in…read more

Perfect in loss
Koo converted all three of his field-goal attempts during Saturday's 17-9 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Koo put the Falcons on the board with a 32-yard field goal to end the first half, cutting Baltimore's lead to 14-3. He added a 34-yard field goal in the third quarter and a 37-yarder in the fourth, marking the fifth time that he's made at least three field goals in a game this season. Koo clearly benefitted Saturday from Desmond Ridder's struggles in the red zone, but the kicker's overall potential moving forward has to be limited given the Falcons have failed to score 20 or more points in six…read more

Quiet outing in loss
Koo connected on his lone field-goal attempt and only point-after try during Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Koo opened the scoring for the Falcons with a 28-yard field goal in the second quarter. He added an extra point following Tyler Allgeier's five-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, but Koo stayed on the sidelines after Cordarrelle Patterson's score in the fourth, as Atlanta opted to go for a two-point conversion to cut New Orleans' lead to three. Across 14 appearances, Koo is 24 of 29 on field-goal attempts, with four of his misses coming from beyond 50 yards.

Nails two long field goals in loss
Koo connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and made his lone point-after try during Sunday's 19-16 loss to Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Koo put the Falcons on the board with a 50-yard field goal in the second quarter and added a 51-yard make on the Falcons' next offensive drive. He also connected on a 28-yard chip shot to cut Atlanta's lead to 19-16 in the fourth quarter. Coming into the contest, Koo was just 4-for-8 on field-goal attempts from beyond 50 yards, so connecting on two of them in one game is certainly a major confidence boost for the fifth-year kicker.

Analysis: Koo opened the scoring with a 47-yard field goal to cap off Atlanta's opening offensive drive. He added his lone extra point before missing a 58-yard attempt at the end of the first half. However, the fifth-year kicker bounced back by connecting on a 48-yarder in the third quarter.

Gives ATL late lead
Koo made both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his point-after tries during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Koo tied the game at 17 with a 40-yard field goal as time expired in the first half and gave Atlanta a 27-24 lead with a 53-yard boot with under two minutes left to go in regulation. It was certainly a bounce-back performance for the 28-year-old after he missed his first two extra-point tries of the season during last Thursday's loss to the Panthers.

Koo made his only field-goal attempt but missed both of his extra-point tries during Thursday's 25-15 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: It wasn't a night to remember by any means for Koo, who missed both of his extra-point attempts during Thursday's contest in Carolina. However, the 28-year-old kicker knocked down his lone field-goal try from 33 yards out, just four days after he failed to sink a 50-yarder. Since the Falcons played Thursday, Koo now gets some extra time off to prepare for the team's Week 11 matchup versus Chicago.

Analysis: Koo gave the Falcons a 10-0 lead at the end of the first quarter with a 29-yard field goal and went on to make both of his extra-point tries before missing a 50-yard attempt wide right at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Through nine games, the kicker has missed just three kicks, all three of which were beyond 40 yards -- including two from 50-plus.

Doesn't miss in Week 7
Koo made his only field-goal attempt and both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Koo's lone field goal, a 43-yard attempt as time expired in the first half, was setup by a 56-yard punt return by Avery Williams. After making 10 of 12 field-goal attempts through the first four games of the season, Koo has attempted just two field goals in the last three games. However, Atlanta's schedule is set to soften up after a stretch against some tough defenses, so it's possible Koo will get more opportunities moving forward.

No field-goal attempts in Week 6
Koo made all four of his extra-point tries and didn't attempt a field goal during Sunday's 28-14 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Atlanta's offense was surprisingly efficient in the red zone against the 49ers' depleted defense, hindering Koo's overall fantasy production. Regardless, it's an encouraging sign to see the Falcons consistently move the ball, which should bode well for the kicker moving forward. Through six games, the fifth-year pro has connected on all 14 of his PATs and 10 of 13 field-goal attempts, with two of those misses coming from beyond 50 yards.

Both of Koo's misses this season have come from beyond 50-plus yards, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried about his accuracy.

Modest results in Week 2
Koo made one of two field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: After the Falcons moved the ball down the field on their opening drive, Koo lost the momentum by missing a 44-yard field goal wide left. He bounced back in the second by connecting on a 26-yard chip shot and made both of his extra-point tries in the second half, but his overall production was disappointing for fantasy mangers after his huge performance in Week 1. Regardless, Koo figures to be a solid option moving forward, as Atlanta's offense appears to be better than initially anticipated.

Staying in Atlanta
The Falcons and Koo agreed to terms on a five-year, $24.25 million contract Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: After a rough start to his career with the Chargers in 2017 -- he made just three of six field-goal attempts and was cut after four games -- Koo was out of the NFL until the Falcons brought him on October 2019. Since then, he's been a modicum of consistency, striking true on 87 of 94 field-goal attempts and 78 of 82 point-after tries in 40 games. Instead of becoming a restricted free agent, Koo will stick in Atlanta for the foreseeable future.

Analysis: Koo stayed perfect on the season as he sank a 40-yard game-winning kick as time expired. The 27-year-old's upside remains limited by a stagnant Falcons offense, but his efficiency certainly qualifies him as a quality fantasy option. Koo attempted 39 field goals through 15 games last year and is on pace for approximately 23 this year. If Atlanta can give him more opportunities, his value will increase exponentially.

Analysis: Atlanta went for two after its final touchdown to make it a three-point game late in the third quarter before the Buccaneers pulled away with three unanswered touchdowns in the fourth. Koo's off to a 3-for-3 start on field goals through two weeks and should continue to make the most of the opportunities that should stem from his role on a Falcons team that figures to be involved in plenty of high-scoring games.

Staying with Atlanta
Koo has re-signed with the Falcons, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Although he's been in the NFL since 2017, the 26-year-old kicker only has two accrued seasons, which means he won't become a restricted free agent until spring 2022. Koo finished 2020 as the league leader in field goals made (37), notably going 8-of-8 from 50-plus yards out. He should be drafted in any league that uses kickers.

Likely staying with Falcons
Koo will be an exclusive-rights free agent this offseason, which "practically guarantees" he'll be back with the Falcons for 2021, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Players who reach the end of their contracts with less than three accrued seasons in the NFL become ERFAs. These players don't actually have any negotiating power, as they can only play for their original team, so long as the team tenders them a minimum salary. Koo's impressive performance the past two years ensures he'll get that tender, unless he receives a long-term extension first. Either way, he figures to be Atlanta's kicker in 2021, hoping to build on a 2020 campaign in which he…read more

Misses vital late-game kick
Koo made both of his extra-point tries but missed on a potential game-tying 39-yard field-goal attempt with 14 seconds remaining in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Koo pushed the crunch-time kick wide right, continuing a season of frequent late-game heartbreak for the Falcons faithful. The 26-year-old had missed only one of 36 field-goal attempts this season coming into Week 16, composing a perfect 8-for-8 mark on kicks of 50 yards or more. Koo's 30-for-33 rate on extra-point attempts demonstrates a potential blind spot in his game at the short-to-intermediate level, and unfortunately for Atlanta, that reality reared its ugly head Sunday afternoon.

Keeps conversion streak alive
Koo made both of his field-goal attempts while going 3-for-3 on point-after tries during Sunday's 31-27 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: The Georgia Southern product continues a tremendous streak of play by virtue of his Week 15 performance, as Koo is now a perfect 30-for-30 on field goals and extra points over his past six outings. Koo boasts a sterling conversion rate of 97.2 percent on 36 field-goal tries for the season, though his 90.3 percent PAT rate is a work in progress. He remains the NFL's leading scorer with 133 points heading into a Week 16 road trip to Kansas City.

Flawless against ex-team
Koo made his lone field-goal attempt of 45 yards, also converting both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Taking on the team that cut him following a four-game stint in 2017, Koo demonstrated the consistency that has since transformed him into a Pro Bowl-caliber kicker. The 26-year-old reached an incredible 33-for-34 mark on field goals with his Week 14 performance, also pushing his PAT conversion rate above 90 percent for the first time all season. Chargers kicker Michael Badgley, meanwhile, entered the contest tied for 25th in the league with a 73.1 percent conversion rate on field-goal attempts.

Continues excellent streak of play
Koo went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts while converting his lone point-after try during Sunday's 21-16 loss to New Orleans.
Analysis: The reigning NFC Special Teams Player of the Month carries his hot streak into December, as he's now converted on 24 consecutive field-goal tries. Koo's deep-range success persists, with his first-quarter conversion from 53 yards out placing him at a perfect 7-for-7 on 50-plus-yard attempts this season. The 26-year-old has a strong chance of keeping up his prolific scoring pace Week 14 against the Chargers, with Los Angeles surrendering the eighth-most field-goal attempts per game in the NFL…read more

Awarded for phenomenal play
Koo has been named NFC Special Teams Player of the Month, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Koo went a perfect 10-for-10 on field-goal tries and 8-for-8 on extra-point attempts over three November appearances. The 26-year-old has posted a sterling 96.7 percent overall conversion rate on field goals this season, while his 109 points represent an NFL high. Koo was limited during Wednesday's practice because of a quadriceps injury, but a full session Thursday shows he should be in the clear for a Week 13 matchup against the Saints.

No limitations in practice
Koo (quadriceps) turned in a full practice Thursday, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Koo was a limited participant Wednesday while he nursed a right quad injury, but his ability to take every rep in practice a day later puts him on track to retain kicking duties for the Falcons in Sunday's game versus the Saints. The 26-year-old has actually been more accurate on field-goal attempts than extra-point tries this season, going 29 for 30 and 22 for 25 in those respective situations.

Limited with quad injury
Koo (quadriceps) was limited in practice Wednesday, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Koo's right quad is a little sore after he converted all nine of his kicks in last week's 43-6 drubbing of the Raiders. Unless his practice participation declines as the week unfolds, Koo should be able to suit up when the Saints come to town Sunday.

Huge scoring day against Raiders
Koo went 5-for-5 on field-goal tries and 4-for-4 on extra-point attempts during Sunday's 43-6 win against the Raiders.
Analysis: Koo continues to enjoy a breakout campaign, as he leads all kickers in scoring with 10.9 points per game this season. In fact, the 26-year-old has established himself a buffer in that category, compiling 1.8 more points per game than any other NFL kicker with a minimum of three appearances this year. Over 18 games in a Falcons uniform since Week 9 of 2019, Koo has converted an outstanding 92.9 percent of his field-goal attempts.

Sinks all three of his kicks
Koo went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts during Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: During a game in which Atlanta made just one trip to New Orleans' red zone, Koo provided all nine of the Falcons' points, succeeding on attempts from 28, 51 and 52 yards out. With his incredible 96 percent hit rate on field-goal tries, the 26-year-old leads the NFL with 24 conversions despite missing one game this season. Koo is a perfect 5-for-5 from 50-plus yards as Atlanta prepares for a Week 12 matchup against the Raiders.

Flawless in Week 9 win
Koo made both of his field-goal attempts, including a long of 52 yards, also going 4-for-4 on extra-point tries during Sunday's 34-27 win against the Broncos.
Analysis: Koo continues to display consistency from deep range, improving to 3-for-3 on field-goal tries of 50-plus yards this season with his Week 9 performance. The Georgia Southern product has been enjoying a marvelous 2020 with the Falcons overall, as he's 21-for-22 on field goals this season after knocking down 23 of 26 tries in eight appearances for Atlanta last year. A sub-90 percent PAT rate the past two seasons provides room for improvement within Koo's game, but the 26-year-old is starting to…read more

Produces baker's dozen in TNF win
Koo went 4-for-4 on field-goal tries and 1-for-2 on extra-point attempts during Thursday's 25-17 win against the Panthers.
Analysis: Atlanta surged ahead 25-17 with 11:01 to go by virtue of a three-yard Todd Gurley touchdown plunge, but a missed PAT from Koo allowed the Panthers to stay within one possession late. Blidi Wreh-Wilson was able to come away with the big turnover on Carolina's final offensive drive, bailing Koo and the Falcons out. The 26-year-old kicker has been incredibly reliable on field goals, as he's gone 42-for-46 in his 15-game Falcon tenure. PATs are a serious work in progress, however, as Koo has…read more

Just two points in loss to Lions
Koo went 2-for-2 on extra-point attempts during Sunday's 23-22 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Koo had provided steady production with an average of three field-goal conversions per game Weeks 1 through 6, but he wasn't afforded a single try in a home loss to Detroit. The Falcons did go for it twice on fourth downs, with one of those attempts involving the decision to pass on a potential 30-yard attempt from Koo. He may garner more opportunities Week 8 during a Thursday night matchup against the Panthers, as Carolina's red-zone defense has been reasonably effective in holding opponents…read more

Perfect 8-for-8 on kicks
Koo went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on extra-point tries during Sunday's 40-23 win against Minnesota.
Analysis: The 26-year-old remains a high-floor fantasy option, with multiple field goals converted in all five of his appearances this season, and three or more field-goal attempts in each of his past four outings. Koo has been reliable from intermediate-to-deep range as well, nailing all three of his attempts Sunday from 40-plus yards, and standing at a 9-for-10 mark from 40 or more yards out this season.

Drains four kicks in losing effort
Koo went 3-for-3 on field-goal tries while converting his lone point-after attempt during Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: After being ruled out for Atlanta's Week 4 loss to the Packers with a groin injury, Koo resumed his strong 2020 campaign against Carolina by pushing his field-goal conversion rate to 91.7 percent. Coupling his efficient FG rate with his success on onside kicks, Koo has been a fine special-teams asset in 12 career appearances for the Falcons. Dependability on extra points has been the area of Koo's game where there remains room for improvement, as he has already missed two of nine attempts on…read more

Koo (groin) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Koo wasn't able to suit up in Monday's loss to the Packers, but he now looks back to full health. The Falcons have already demoted Elliott Fry back to the practice squad, indicating Koo will be good to go for Atlanta's Week 5 matchup with the Panthers.

Ruled out for Monday
Koo (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Packers, Jason Butt of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: This was hardly surprising considering Koo did not practice all week. Elliott Fry will slide in as the starting kicker in what figures to be a high-octane shootout against the Packers. The Packers are averaging the most points scored (40.7) through three weeks with the Falcons narrowly behind in sixth place (30).

No work in practice
Koo (groin) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: The Falcons haven't officially ruled Koo out for Monday's game against the Packers, but the kicker appears set to miss time after suffering a right groin strain during the team's Week 3 loss to the Bears. In anticipation of Koo's absence, the Falcons added another kicker to their practice squad Thursday in Elliott Fry. He'll presumably be elevated to the 53-man roster in the coming days and should make his NFL debut Week 4.

Likely to miss time
Koo is expected to miss time due to the groin strain he played through during Sunday's 30-26 loss to the Bears, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Koo managed to tough out his injury Sunday loss, but he wasn't able to handle kickoff duties and also missed one field-goal try and an extra-point attempt. Depending on the severity of the issue, the Falcons could consider placing Koo on IR for a minimum of three weeks. Cameron Nizialek is a candidate to be promoted from the practice squad, though Atlanta could also opt to delve into the free-agent kicker market.

Koo suffered a leg strain prior to Sunday's game against the Bears, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Koo's injury explains why he didn't handle kickoff duties Sunday. The 26-year-old also had a pair of misses during the loss to Chicago, as he converted two of three field-goal tries and two of three extra-point attempts. He'll look to get fully healthy before Week 4's game against the Packers on Monday Night Football rolls around.

Knocks down seven kicks
Koo went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 on point-after tries during Sunday's 40-39 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: One week after Koo converted on his third onside kick attempt in as many tries, Dallas' Greg Zuerlein executed a successful onsider of his own, kick-rolling a ball slowly to the 10-yard threshold and enabling C.J. Goodwin to pounce on the loose ball as soon as he became eligible to do so. Koo wasn't granted the opportunity to execute any special-teams miracles during the Week 2 loss, though he was flawless on his seven combined field goal and PATs.

Onside-kick master delivers again
Koo went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 1-for-2 on extra points during Sunday's 38-25 loss to the Seahawks. He also delivered a successful onside kick during the final minute of regulation.
Analysis: Koo now has two missed PATs on nine attempts since Week 16 of last year, but he did deliver on yet another onside kick conversion in the season opener. The 26-year-old provided two successful onside kicks Nov. 28, but Atlanta came up just short of its second 2019 upset of New Orleans, and again Sunday his late-game heroics proved insufficient. Though the Falcons have dropped a third consecutive Week 1 game, Koo has at least converted on 13 of his past 14 field-goal tries.

Coach Dan Quinn said that there is no firm plan to bring in a second kicker to compete with Koo during training camp, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Quinn conceded that during a season played amidst a pandemic, it's especially crucial to have a contingency plan at every position. The coach mentioned that the Falcons may conduct workouts to "see where we're at" in terms of the kicker and punter positions, but he also stated that the team has been satisfied with Koo's performance thus far in camp.

Expected to face competition
Coach Dan Quinn said that the Falcons are hoping to add some competition for Koo at the kicker position, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: While in-person workouts remain inconceivable for the time being, Koo is still going to have to prove himself during the lead-up to the regular season. The 25-year-old is currently the only kicker on the depth chart, but Quinn has remained adamant throughout the offseason that he is seeking competition at the position. Though Koo knocked down an impressive 23 of 26 field goals during his debut campaign in Atlanta, Quinn is wary of anointing his starter prematurely. Giorgio Tavecchio entered…read more

Koo signed a one-year contract extension with the Falcons on Tuesday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Koo was set to be an exclusive-rights free agent in March, but the team bypassed that and locked him down to a "prove-it" contract. Koo took over as the Falcons' starting kicker in 2019 after the team cut veteran Matt Bryant midseason. The 25-year-old Koo performed admirably, connecting on 23 of 26 field goals (88 percent) and hitting 15 of 16 extra points over eight games.

Koo went 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts, while sinking his lone point-after try during Sunday's 28-22 overtime win against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Across eight games as Atlanta's placekicker, Koo established a proficient 88.5 percent conversion rate on field goals as well as a 15-for-16 mark on PATs. Koo got off to a shaky start to his Falcons career by missing three of his first 12 tries from the field, but he steadied out and was able to convert on 14 consecutive kicks to close out 2019.

Upcoming next is a promising opportunity for Koo if he can level out his consistency, with Atlanta taking on a Buccaneers team that ranks tied for 32nd in the NFL with 2.5 field-goal attempts allowed per game.

Dealing with left foot injury
Koo (left foot) was limited in Wednesday's practice, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Koo has been excellent for the Falcons this season, connecting on 17 of 19 field goals (89 percent), including six of seven from beyond 40 yards. The 24-year-old is perhaps the most effective kicker in the league at onside kicks as well. Koo is dealing with an injury to his plant foot, though, so it'll be important to keep an eye on his practice status this week as well as whether the Falcons bring in kickers for workouts or sign one to the practice squad.

Koo made his lone field-goal attempt from 43 yards out and went 2-for-2 on point-after tries during Sunday's 29-22 win against the 49ers.
Analysis: The trick shot specialist converted yet another successful onside kick Week 15 against San Francisco, but the play was waved off by an illegal formation penalty. The reigning Special Teams Player of the Week pooched a beautiful bouncing kickoff attempt into the arms of Foyesade Oluokun, as Atlanta benefited from the element of surprise in recovering an onside kick to open up the second half, but after the five-yard penalty was enforced, Atlanta elected to boot it deep.

Racks up 16 points, recovers fumble
Koo went 4-for-4 on field-goal tries and 4-for-4 on extra points during Sunday's 40-20 win against Carolina.
Analysis: Koo regained hold of the Falcons' starting kicker job with a strong Week 14 performance, after enduring a shaky stretch between Weeks 11 and 13 in which he missed two extra points and a field goal. Since missing those three kicks, Koo has gone 10-for-10 on field goal and PATS, converted two onside kicks, and even recovered a fumble on a kickoff return Sunday -- scooping up a loose ball that Panthers return man Greg Dortch put on the ground in the third quarter.

Analysis: Koo has missed three combined field-goal and extra-point tries over the last three contests, but he redeemed himself in some capacity by converting two onside kicks during Thursday's loss to the Saints. While the 25-year-old looks like he'll remain on the roster through the Week 14 game with the Panthers, he'll need to improve his accuracy to keep his spot for the remainder of the season.

Koo himself converted on two straight in the waning moments of the fourth quarter Thanksgiving night -- not including a third that was erased by Falcons penalty -- though the miraculous recoveries were not enough to overcome his blunders earlier in the contest.

During Sunday's inter-divisional showdown of sub-.500 clubs, Koo converted on field-goal tries of 25, 38 and 40 yards.

Koo drained all four of his field-goal attempts and went 2-for-2 on point-after tries during Sunday's 26-9 win against the Saints.
Analysis: With all the bad mojo that had afflicted the Falcons' kicker position through the first half of 2019, it took Koo donning the number of a franchise legend to break the slump.
