The team decided to part ways with Folk in favor of the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad kicker, Jake Moody, who will be activated to the main roster for the Falcons and take over kicking duties immediately heading into a matchup in Week 10 with the Kansas City Chiefs.
In the fourth quarter of the game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, Folk missed a 38-yard try in the fourth quarter, which all but solidified his release.
Moody, however, is coming off a game against the Jacksonville
Jaguars in Week 9 that saw him make a 53-yard field goal, which must have sparked the Falcons' curiosity since Folk did not appear to have much power left in his leg despite coming in with a great track record of being very accurate in the past few seasons.
Folk went 13-for-18 on the year so far.
Moody (26) was originally selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He spent time with San Francisco and Washington before joining Baltimore's practice squad.
