The former Pro Bowler — an accurate kicker throughout his 13-year NFL career — has already missed six field goals this season.
The Jets still haven’t made a decision on their kicker for Thursday’s game, but they officially started the competition — to “create some stress,” as head coach Jeff Ulrbich called it — on Tuesday.
Cade York, Riley Patterson, Spencer Shrader, Andre Szmyt, Zane Gonzalez and Brayden Narveson worked out for the Jets, according to the NFL Network, after Greg Zuerlein’s rough season potentially reached a breaking point with another missed extra point and another missed field goal during their 25-22 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
