Despite starting the last five games for the Giants, Koo missed both of his field-goal attempts during Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Washington Commanders. The Falcons released Koo earlier in the season after he missed a game-tying field goal attempt during their Week 1 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The former Pro Bowl kicker spent roughly six seasons in Atlanta (2019-2025) before losing his job back in Week 2.
