Former New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye has agreed to a one-year deal with the Tennessee Titans, after his tenure in New England ended after just one season.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport wrote: “The #Titans are adding a kicker, as they are signing former #Patriots and #Commanders kicker Joey Slye, per agent Glenn Schwartzman of Shark Sports Management.”
The former Virginia Tech kicker entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2019, with the six-year veteran previously appearing in games for the Carolina Panthers, San Francisco 49ers, Houston Texans and Washington Commanders. He also played for the New York Giants and Jacksonville Jaguars.
Slye made 81.7% of his attempts through the first 95 appearances of his NFL career, and made a career-high 92% of his attempts in 2021, which he split with the Texans, 49ers and Commanders. Last season, the 28-year-old connected on 26 of his 33 field goal attempts with the Patriots — including a career-long 63-yard field goal in a Week 4 loss to the 49ers — and 25 of his 26 extra-point attempts.
