Who Should I Start? Greg Zuerlein or Jake Moody

Friday, May 16, 4:32 PM

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein has been released by the organization on Friday. This news doesn't come as a shock after Zuerlein struggled last season. He appeared in eight games, Zuerlein made only 9-of-15 field goal attempts, which is the worst of his career. The 37-year-old missed time with a knee injury as well, so it wouldn't be surprising if he decided to retire. If not, Zuerlein will likely need to earn his spot in training camp on another roster. The expectation is that Anders Carlson and Cade Davis will compete for the starting gig this fall.

Washington Commanders kicker Jake Moody is set to make his team debut in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. Moody signed with Washington on November 18, following the team's release of Matt Gay. The 26-year-old Moody began the season with the San Francisco 49ers, but was cut after missing two field goal attempts in Week 1. Moody was then signed to the Chicago Bears practice squad and appeared in two games, making eight of nine attempts, which includes a game-winning kick against the Commanders in Week 6. Moody will hope to carry over that success in Washington and establish himself as a reliable kicker after being selected in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He is a risky option in Week 13 as Washington faces an elite defense in the Denver Broncos.
