One day after the Falcons failed to store the Buccaneers of Tampa Bay and have lost an opener for the eighth time in 10 seasons, Atlanta immediately plans to address the position of the botter.
The Falcons missed a chance to start the 2025 season with a victory on the rival of the division and the title champion of the NFC South, Tampa Bay, when the Buccaneers escaped with a victory of 23-20 on Sunday.
Head coach Raheem Morris said on Monday that Falcons would welcome veterans of the veterans during Tuesday training who could decide on the status of Younghoe Koo, who missed a basket of 44 yards in the last seconds on Sunday and converted another test by the amount. He has six missed tests on the goal in six games.
Atlanta signed the German botter Lenny Krieg during the offseason before adding it to the training team to compete for work with Koo.
Morris was not ready to say that Krieg is immediate replacement, but Koo did not receive a lot of approval despite the fact that he became the Atlanta botter in 2019.
“You have to say that right now,” said Morris after being asked if Koo was the starter from Monday. “Tomorrow, we will develop veterans, some young guys. There are no secrets here. There will always be a very competitive atmosphere.”
The special teams as a whole were a painful subject with Morris on Monday. Atlanta also authorized Kameron Johnson Kameron Johnson Johnson Johnson’s release of Kameron Johnson, setting up the second touch of Tampa Bay.
“We just don’t play well enough in the special teams,” said Falcons head coach on Monday, Raheem Morris on Monday. “We have to improve there. Lack this goal on the field, at that time, to link it, it will be one of the critical points we are talking about. … We have to bring a competitive advantage. We have to go there and look for people to compete.”
Other areas on the list were not as productive as Morris would have liked it in the loss.
Bijan Robinson was held at 24 yards on the ground. Atlanta’s defense – Despite Tampa Bay’s holding only 260 yards in total – allowed Baker Mayfield to lead the Buccaneers on the ground in just five games on the way to the touch of 25 yards winning the recruiter Emeka Egbuka.
Michael Penix Jr. launched for 298 yards and a touchdown, adding another score on the field during his fourth career start. The 25 -year -old put the Falcons in equal position without the wide receiver Darnell Mooney, who was inactive with a shoulder injury. Penix’s best goal, Drake London, left in the fourth quarter on Sunday with a shoulder injury.
Morris had no update on the London injury, but is optimistic for a possible return against the Vikings of Minnesota next Sunday evening.
“Drake is a hard human,” said Morris. “I feel good about it after talking to him, but I want a certain clarity.”
