Last week’s roaster shake-ups saw the Jacksonville Jaguars cut two kickers who had looked promising in preseason action. They would go on to sign one of them, rookie James McCourt, back to the practice squad, but the team would eventually decide to rely on new acquisition Riley Patterson for full-time help at the position.
Special teams coordinator Heath Farwell was asked about the Jaguars’ situation at kicker on Thursday and told reporters that he was more than comfortable with his staff’s decision to roll with Patterson in Week 1.
