Free-agent PK Justin Tucker (Ravens) will work out for the New Orleans Saints Monday, Nov. 24.
| Footballguys view: Tucker was reinstated 13 days ago, after serving a 10-game suspension under the Personal Conduct Policy. Some believed Tucker's off-field baggage, coupled with a lackluster 2024 season with the Ravens (73.3-percent field-goal conversion rate), would make it more difficult for him to get a shot. Current Saints kicker Blake Grupe has missed eight of 26 field goals this season. On Sunday against the Falcons, Grupe missed a 38-yard field goal and a 47-yard field goal. |
