The Atlanta Falcons have made a significant change to their kicking game by signing Jake Moody off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad and releasing Nick Folk. This move comes as Folk has struggled recently, missing field goals in two consecutive games and converting only 13 of 18 attempts this season. Additionally, he has missed one extra point, completing 17 of 18 in that category over nine games. Jordan Schultz of The Schultz Report first broke the news of this roster change, highlighting the Falcons' ongoing quest for stability in their kicking unit.

Jake Moody, who made his NFL debut with the Ravens in Week 9, was brought in to fill the void left by the injured Tyler Loop. His time with Baltimore was brief, as he now transitions to the Falcons' active roster. This marks a notable shift in the Falcons' strategy as they look to improve their special teams performance. The release of Folk indicates a clear signal from the coaching staff regarding their expectations for the position moving forward.S2
