Cade York Re-Signs With Browns

Free-agent kicker Cade York re-signed with the Cleveland Browns on an undisclosed deal on Saturday, according to a source. York will return to the team that drafted him in the fourth round (124th overall) in 2022 out of LSU after he made only 24 of his 32 field-goal attempts and 35 of his 37 extra-point tries in 17 games in his rookie year in 2022. The 23-year-old kicker was cut by Cleveland in training camp last summer and spent the entire year languishing on the practice squads for the Tennessee Titans and New York Giants. The Browns already have Dustin Hopkins and Lucas Havrisik at the position heading into offseason workouts, so York will merely be competing for a job in Cleveland this summer. He's off the fantasy radar for now.

Cade York Placed On Injured Reserve

The New York Giants placed kicker Cade York (quadriceps) on injured reserve on Friday, after he aggravated a quad injury in practice on Thursday. York was next in line to take over as the Giants' kicker after Randy Bullock (hamstring) was injured in Week 15's game against the New Orleans Saints. New York signed 39-year-old veteran Mason Crosby to the practice squad with the expectation that he will be elevated to the active roster on Monday when the Giants face off against the Philadelphia Eagles. Crosby was previously on the Los Angeles Rams' practice squad but Week 16 will be his first in-game action of 2023.

Giants Bring In Another Kicker In Cade York

The New York Giants are signing kicker Cade York off the Tennessee Titans practice squad on Friday. Head coach Brian Daboll said on Thursday that Graham Gano (knee) will be placed on Injured Reserve, and the G-Men also signed veteran kicker Randy Bullock on Thursday. Bullock and York will now compete for the starting kicking gig the next few days before the Giants face off against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 9 on Sunday. The 22-year-old York played in 17 games for the Cleveland Browns in his rookie season in 2022 and went 24-for-32 (75 percent) on field-goal tries while missing two of his 37 extra-point opportunities for the Browns. Bullock, 33, has more experience with 10 years in the NFL, and he's made 95.6 percent of his kicks in his career. Whoever the Giants go with should be avoided for fantasy purposes this week.

Dustin Hopkins Traded To Cleveland, Cade York Waived

Veteran kicker Dustin Hopkins lost the Los Angeles Chargers starting kicker job to Cameron Dicker this preseason and is being traded to the Cleveland Browns for a 2025 seventh-round pick. Cade York has been waived in a corresponding move. Hopkins made 27 of his 30 field goal attempts as a Charger in 2021 and 2022, but a lower-body injury held him out of 12 games last season. If the Browns' offense takes a step forward in Deshaun Watson's second season with the organization, Hopkins could have plenty of upside in fantasy football. York could find a new home in short order.

Browns Not Committing To Cade York

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski is not committing to Cade York as the team's starting kicker heading into the 2023 regular season in Week 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals. York had the potential game-winning 43-yard field goal blocked with 54 seconds remaining in the preseason finale against the Kansas City Chiefs, which was the second straight game he missed a potential game-winning field goal. York went 4-for-8 on field goals and 8-for-8 on extra points in four preseason games. During training camp, he made 99% of his kicks, though. With the regular season quickly approaching, the Browns could choose to bring in competition for the 22-year-old. Needless to say, York should be off the fantasy radar right now.
