Falcons to place Younghoe Koo on IR, sign Riley Patterson to 53-man roster

The Falcons make a few moves on the kicker.

Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, Atlanta places Younghoe Koo on injured reserve and signs Riley Patterson from Cleveland’s practice squad.

It’s currently unclear what injury Koo is dealing with, though he landed on the injury report a few weeks ago with a right hip issue. Koo missed one of his three field goals in Monday night’s win over the Raiders.

He has made 73.5 percent of his 34 field goal attempts this season.

Patterson kicked for the Browns last week, making his one kick – an extra point. He spent time with the Falcons on their practice squad earlier this year. Patterson has made 88.1 percent of his career field goals for Detroit, Jacksonville, Cleveland and the Jets.
