Colts' Blake Grupe: Makes 60-yard field goal
Blake Grupe connected on all three field-goal attempts, including a 60-yarder, and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Seahawks.The 60-yard field goal briefly gave Indianapolis a one-point lead with less than a minute to play, though Seattle drove back down for a clutch field goal of its own to win it. Grupe also made a 54-yarder and a 42-yarder in this one, as he stayed perfect across two games with the Indianapolis Colts since replacing Michael Badgley. Though Grupe missed eight field goals in 11 games with the Saints earlier in the year, he seems to have found his groove with his new team.

Blake Grupe: Finds work in Indy
The Colts signed Blake Grupe to their practice squad Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.After Michael Badgley missed his third point-after attempt in just seven games in this past Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans, the Colts worked out three kickers Tuesday. Grupe emerged from the tryout with a spot on the practice squad, and he should be on track to be elevated or signed to the Colts' 53-man roster after Indianapolis officially waived Badgley on Tuesday. Indianapolis will mark the second stop of Grupe's professional career after he had served as the Saints' kicker since the start of the 2023 season before being cut loose last week. Grupe had missed eight field-goal tries in 26 attempts for New Orleans this season, but he's converted at a more palatable 79.8 percent clip for his career.

Blake Grupe: Time in New Orleans ends
The Saints waived Blake Grupe on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.Grupe knocked down a career-best 87.1 percent of his field-goal tries in 2024, but his accuracy had cratered during his third NFL season. After missing attempts from 38 and 47 yards in the Saints' Week 12 loss to the Falcons, Grupe's conversion rate for the season dropped to 69.2 percent, placing him last among all NFL kickers with at least 20 attempts. The Saints have signed Cade York to their practice squad following a tryout, and he'll presumably be elevated or signed to the 53-man roster to step in as the team's new kicker beginning with Sunday's game in Miami.
