The Atlanta Falcons' Week 9 loss to the New England Patriots inspired their second kicker change of the 2025 season. After initially adding Parker Romo to replace Younghoe Koo, the team has now signed Zane Gonzalez as its Plan C.
As the Falcons prepare to travel to play in Berlin, the team is hoping Zane Gonzalez can rid them of their baggage when it comes to kicking game problems this season.
The Falcons are waiving Parker Romo, who missed a potentially game-tying extra point vs. the Patriots, and a source confirms that veteran kicker Zane Gonzalez will replace Romo.
Zane Gonzalez resurfaced in Atlanta today for a workout, according to NFL.com’s Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport, who reports the team will make a Romo-for-Gonzalez switch at kicker. Gonzalez, who will follow Younghoe Koo and Romo as Falcons kickers this season, last kicked for the Commanders in 2024.
