12/24/24 | Jets sign another kicker amid Anders Carlson's struggles. Nothing has gone right for the New York Jets in 2024, and that includes at the kicker position. The Jets have rotated between four kickers on the year, and they may be adding a fifth to the equation after they signed yet another kicker to their practice squad on Tuesday morning in the wake of Anders Carlson's struggles. Greg Zuerlein opened the year as New York's kicker, but he struggled before being placed on injured reserve with a left knee injury. Since then, Carlson, Riley Patterson, and Spencer Shrader have filled in, but they haven't had much success collectively. Source: https://clutchpoints.com/jets-news-new-york-signs-... |

Six plays later, Jason Sanders hit a 52-yard field goal to tie the game and send it into overtime where the Dolphins won 32-26 .
