Falcons re-sign Pro Bowl kicker Younghoe Koo, three others

The Falcons have re-signed Younghoe Koo. The 26-year-old earned his first Pro Bowl nod in 2020. The kicker was an exclusive-rights free agent. Koo joined the Falcons for the second half of the 2019 campaign, and he retained the starting gig in 2020. He ultimately finished the year having appeared in 15 games, connecting on a league-leading and franchise-record 37 field goals (on 39 attempts). Koo also became the first player in Falcons history to connect on at least eight field goals of 50 yards or more without a miss.

The Falcons have also resigned wide receiver Christian Blake, who joined the Falcons as an undrafted free agent in 2018, and after not seeing the field during his rookie campaign, he’s appeared in 25 games for the Falcons over the past two years. The 24-year-old has hauled in 24 career receptions for 232 yards.

Defensive tackle Jacob Tuioti-Mariner also got a re-up. He joined the Falcons as an undrafted free agent in 2018, and he didn’t get into a game until the 2019 campaign. The 24-year-old appeared in all 16 games this past season, compiling 31 tackles, one sack, and one forced fumble.

Cornerback Tyler Hall got re-signed as well. Hall went undrafted during last year’s draft, and he proceeded to spend the majority of the 2020 season with the Falcons organization. He finished the game having appeared in nine games, collecting six tackles.
