2024 Fantasy Outlook
Koo is one of the best kickers in the NFL but typically hasn't gotten enough PAT volume to rank as one of the top fantasy options at this position. He's made at least 86.5 percent of his FG attempts each season since taking over as Atlanta's kicker midway through 2019, going 23-of-31 from 50-plus yards (74.2 percent) and 39-of-46 in the 40-to-49-yard range (84.8 percent). Kicking in a dome more than half the time helps, with the Falcons assured of at least nine indoor games each season between their home stadium and the annual visit to New Orleans. They're scheduled for 12 dome games in 2024, and with QB Kirk Cousins presumably improving the Atlanta offense, Koo should be one of the better kickers for fantasy. Read Past Outlooks
Good to go
Koo (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Despite drawing a questionable tag, Koo was expected to suit up Sunday after logging a full practice Friday. After going 2-for-7 on field-goal attempts from Weeks 7-10, Koo bounced back with a perfect outing against Denver in Week 11 before Atlanta's Week 12 bye. It's been a mixed bag for the veteran kicker this season, but the Falcons' improved offense has given Koo more opportunities than in previous seasons.

Koo has converted more field goals (119) than PATs (111) through three and half seasons as Atlanta's kicker, establishing himself as one of the league's best (with some help from a dome) while being attached to subpar offenses. His work for the Falcons includes 20-for-25 from 50-plus and 31-for-39 from 40-49 yards, keeping him on the fantasy map even with the team relying on Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke at quarterback. Koo is good enough to rank among the top fantasy kickers if the Falcons offense is merely decent, which might be the case even with sketchy QB play now that rookie Bijan Robinson leads the rushing attack.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Job not in danger
Coach Raheem Morris noted that he has full confidence in Koo following Sunday's loss to the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Falcons fell by three points in a pivotal divisional matchup against the Saints on Sunday, and Koo played a significant role by missing two field goals and having another blocked. While he has built a reputation as one of the most accurate kickers in the league due to his consistency across the last five seasons, Koo has converted only 71 percent of his field-goal attempts in 2024. Nevertheless, it appears the Falcons are willing to let Koo work through his struggles.
