The Atlanta Falcons agreed Wednesday to a contract with kicker Zane Gonzalez, who worked out for the team on Tuesday.
To make room on the 53-man roster, the Falcons released defensive lineman Ta’Quon Graham.
The Falcons (3-5) have lost three straight games and collectively their kickers are 13 of 17 on field-goal attempts as Atlanta prepares to depart for Sunday’s game in Berlin against the Indianapolis Colts (7-2).
Distance is the most commonly referenced shortcoming for Gonzalez. From 40-49 yards, he is 33 of 46, and from 50-plus he is 11 of 19.
His career long of 57 yards came on Halloween 2021 at Atlanta while kicking for the Carolina Panthers.
Misses have been a part of the story for Gonzalez, who was 38th in the NFL with a FG percentage of 71.4 in six games with the Washington C
