Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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 games of the regular season plus the wild-card round of the playoffs, should Atlanta clinch a playoff berth. The Falcons signed Riley Patterson off the Browns' practice squad to replace Koo as their kicker beginning with Sunday's game against the Giants.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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 field-goal tries in each of his first five seasons in Atlanta but has seen his efficiency take a hit in 2024, converting on only 25 of 34 attempts (73.5 percent).

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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 goals this season.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Good to go
Koo (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Working through hip issue
Koo (hip) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's injury report, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Provides team's only points Sunday
Koo made both of his two field-goal tries during Sunday's 38-6 loss at Denver.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.

Falcons' Younghoe Koo: 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.
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.
