Justin Tucker Among Group that Works Out for Jets as New York Evaluates Kickers, AP Source Says
The team evaluated three veteran options after recent misses and roster moves left the job unsettled, according to a report.
- On Wednesday, the New York Jets held a workout for veteran kicker Justin Tucker, Michael Badgley, and Josh Karty as part of their ongoing evaluation at the position.
- Team officials continue evaluating after recently claiming Blake Grupe off waivers, while Jason Sanders moved to the practice squad following preseason struggles against the Giants last Friday.
- Five-Time All-Pro Justin Tucker holds NFL records for most seasons with at least 30 field goals, while Michael Badgley has made 83.2 percent of his career field-goal attempts and Josh Karty 79.6 percent.
- None of the three kickers were signed immediately following the session, as the Jets maintain a cautious approach while monitoring available options at the position.
- New York is performing due diligence to ensure stability at the position before the season opener against Tennessee on September 13, when Blake Grupe will likely be the first option.
