  • Harrison Mevis: Heading to Carolina

    Mevis is slated to sign with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Mevis made 24 of 30 field-goal attempts at Missouri last year, including a 61-yard conversion that set an SEC record. He'll now challenge Eddy Pineiro during offseason activities.

    Jaguars' Cam Little: Jacksonville selects in sixth round

    The Jaguars selected Little in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 212th overall.

    Kickers are never easy to predict, but Little was a very good collegiate kicker at Arkansas, and if he performs at a similar level in the NFL then this should prove a useful enough selection for Jacksonville. Little never missed an extra point attempt in college and made four of five field goal attempts from 50 yards or more in 2023. He'll compete with Riley Patterson and Joey Slye for the Jacksonville kicking role in 2024.

  • Joshua Karty K | LAR

    Rams' Joshua Karty: Competing for kicker job in LA

    The Rams selected Karty in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 209th overall.

    Karty converted 23 of his 27 field-goal attempts with Stanford last season with only one miss coming from within 50 yards. The rookie is expected to compete with Tanner Brown and possibly another veteran for the team's starting kicker spot to begin 2024.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Drafted by Minnesota

    The Vikings selected Reichard in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 203rd overall.

    Reichard is the NCAA's all-time leading points scorer (547). At Alabama, Reichard converted 274 of 275 extra points and had an 86 percent field goal success rate. Placekicking duties should be his in Minnesota.

  • Steelers' Matthew Wright: Back with Pittsburgh

    The Steelers signed Wright on Wednesday.

    Wright, who has had previous stints with the Steelers since entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2019, has also spent time with the Falcons, Panthers, Lions, Patriots and 49ers. Now that the well-traveled 28-year-old kicker is back with Pittsburgh, he'll provide the team with depth behind top option Chris Boswell.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Stays in LA

    Dicker re-signed with the Chargers on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Dicker ultimately signed his exclusive rights tender from Los Angeles, which was originally placed on him March 8. The Texas product connected on 31 of his 33 FGAs last season, which was good for a 94 percent conversion rate, while not missing a single PAT. He may ultimately face competition in camp, but Dicker should have the inside track on the team's kicking job in 2024.

  • Greg Joseph K | NYG

    Packers' Greg Joseph: Lands in Green Bay

    The Packers signed Joseph to a contract Tuesday, his agent Brett Tessler reports.

    Joseph gives Green Bay an experienced veteran option to compete with Anders Carlson, a 2023 sixth-round pick who converted 27 of 33 field-goal attempts (82 percent) and 34 of 39 extra-point attempts as a rookie. Joseph converted 24 of 30 field-goal tries (80 percent) and 36 of 38 extra-point attempts over 17 games with the Vikings last season.

  • Cade York K | WAS

    Browns' Cade York: Signs with Cleveland

    The Browns signed York on Saturday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    York spent last season on the practice squads of the Titans and Giants after the Browns cut him following training camp last summer. A 2022 fourth-round pick by Cleveland, York made just 24 of 32 field-goal attempts (75 percent) as a rookie before losing his job after one season. York joins Dustin Hopkins and Lucas Havrisik at kicker for Cleveland.

  • Joey Slye K | NE

    Jaguars' Joey Slye: Signing with Jacksonville

    Slye is signing a one-year contract with the Jaguars, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The Jags and Commanders now have swapped kickers, after Brandon McManus signed with Washington last week. The difference is that McManus figures to essentially be handed a starting job, whereas Slye is less proven and may have to compete with reserve/future signee Riley Patterson. Slye's career field-goal percentage (82.3) and PAT percentage (88.5) both are subpar by modern standards, though he does have a strong leg and has made 20 of 32 tries from 50-plus yards in his career.

  • Nick Folk K | TEN

    Titans' Nick Folk: Re-ups with Tennessee

    Folk agreed Wednesday with the Titans on a one-year, $3.76 million contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Folk enjoyed an excellent campaign with Tennessee last season, converting 29 of 30 field-goal attempts and 28 of 30 extra-point tries. The veteran is entering his age-39 season but remains one of the NFL's most reliable placekickers, so bringing him back on a one-year deal is a sensible move for the Titans. Folk's contract reportedly maxes out at $4.13 million with incentives.
