Jets Working Out Six Kickers

According to Mike Garafolo, the Jets hosted six kickers for a workout this morning. 

Greg Zuerlein

Jets HC Jeff Ulbrich said the tryout will continue tomorrow before the team picks a winner, per Connor Hughes

There’s a good chance one of these players is signed to replace veteran K Greg Zuerlein, who has struggled mightily this year. 

The full list includes: 

    1. Zane Gonzalez
    2. Brayden Narveson
    3. Riley Patterson
    4. Spencer Shrader
    5. Andre Szmyt
    6. Cade York

York, 23, was twice named second-team All-SEC to go with a first-team All-SEC selection and second-team All-American selection in 2020. The Browns selected him in the fourth round of the 2022 draft out of LSU.

However, the Browns waived him going into his second season and he caught on with the Titans’ practice squad. New York signed him off Tennessee’s practice squad and he never appeared in a game for either team.

The Browns re-signed York to a contract this past March and wound up trading him to the Commanders for a conditional seventh-round pick. However, York was later released by the Commanders after one game.

In 2024, York has appeared in one game for the Commanders and missed both of his field goal attempts. He also converted on both of his extra-point attempts.
