Spencer Shrader is next up in the New York Jets’ kicking shuffle. Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich said Friday that Shrader is likely to be the team’s kicker Sunday at Arizona after another shakeup at the position.
FILE - Indianapolis Colts place kicker Spencer Shrader warms up before an NFL football game against the Houston Texans, Sept. 8, 2024, in Indianapolis. San Francisco 49ers place kicker Anders Carlson , middle left, celebrates with long snapper Taybor Pepper after kicking a field goal during the first half of an NFL football game against the Dallas Cowboys in Santa Clara, Calif., Sunday, Oct. 27, 2024.
“So, that’s ultimately what it came down to was the strength of the leg and Shrader kicked very well today. So I think he’ll get the nod on Sunday.” Carlson was a sixth-round pick of Green Bay last year out of Auburn and was 27 of 33 on field goals and 34 of 39 on extra points in 17 games as a rookie with the Packers.
“Z was coming off of a career year last year and we all still believe in Z,” general manager Joe Douglas said Wednesday. “Obviously, struggled with some of the mechanics and had a little tweak here, so I think this is a good opportunity for him to kind of hit the reset button. And no one’s given up on Zuerlein coming back here and helping us win games and possibly win a championship.”
