2024 RTSports Outlook

Koo continues to emerge as one of the most dependable kickers in football. He was sixth overall in fantasy kicker scoring (129 points). Koo had five games with double-digit points. He also made 86.5 percent of his field goals, including 7-of-11 from 50 or more yards. Koo has 19 field goals of 50 or more yards his last three seasons. Koo is one of the elite kickers in football. Koo does not have a booming leg like some of the other kickers in the game, but is extremely accurate and clutch.

FANTASY OUTLOOK: Despite not playing in a high-powered offense, Koo is a solid fantasy kicker. He gets his chances and doesn't miss many kicks. It is always scary to take a kicker that isn't from a top team, but Koo breaks the mold when it comes to that. He can score around 125 points and post consistent weekly numbers.

Player Notes
Dec 17 12:40pm ET

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (illness) is officially active and will play in Week 15 on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Koo was a late addition to the injury report on Saturday and was listed as questionable to play this weekend. Meanwhile, Hollins will be a healthy scratch after returning from injury in the Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to play just six offensive snaps on his way to one catch for four yards. Koo has missed only three of his 28 field-goal tries this year. The Falcons offense hasn't been very great, but the matchup against Carolina on Sunday makes Koo worthy of streaming consideration in fantasy lineups. With Hollins sitting out, KhaDarel Hodge and Scotty Miller will be battling for the No. 3 role in Atlanta behind Drake London and Van Jefferson.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (illness) was added to the injury report on Saturday and is officially questionable to play against the Carolina Panthers in Week 15. While Koo practiced in full all week long, it appears that he started experiencing symptoms sometime this weekend. On a positive note, the Falcons opted against signing a kicker to their active roster, so it appears they're confident that Koo will play. If active, he ranks as a top-10 kicking option versus the Panthers' suspect defense.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (back) upgraded to a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final Week 12 injury report. Koo will be active and kick for the Falcons despite not practicing on Wednesday with a back ailment. The Falcons even signed kicker Matt Ammendola as insurance earlier this week in case the 29-year-old Koo wasn't able to play this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Koo is one of the most reliable kickers in the NFL, as he's missed just one field-goal attempt and one extra point this year. However, due to the Falcons' sluggish offense and instability at the quarterback position, Koo has mostly been a low-end kicking option in fantasy lineups. Hopefully Desmond Ridder returning under center for Atlanta will help them move the ball more consistently.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (back) upgraded to a limited participant in practice on Thursday. It's still too early to tell whether he might be able to play in Week 12 versus the New Orleans Saints, but this update is a good sign nonetheless. If active, Koo would rank as a top-12 fantasy kicker. Otherwise, Matthew Wright would likely be elevated from the practice squad.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (back) did not practice on Wednesday due to a back issue. This is a situation worth monitoring for fantasy managers as Koo has been one of the better kickers in the NFL this season. He's nailed 95.5% of his kicks this year, which includes going 3-for-3 on kicks of 50 yards or more. The Falcons will likely give him all of the rest he needs to make sure he is ready for their Week 12 divisional contest against the Saints. However, fantasy managers should have a backup plan readily available.
