The Tennessee Titans have been on the kicker carousel for the better part of four years now. Many have come and gone, but rest assured they are not forgotten.
Of the kickers who have been brought in since 2019, Randy Bullock had the most success. Signed in 2021, Bullock managed to stick around for two seasons and produced a success rate on field goals of 84.3 percent.
He actually earned himself an extension in 2022 but was cut this offseason after the cash-strapped Titans didn’t want to pay him while simultaneously desiring a bigger leg after Bullock wasn’t trusted to kick longer field goals.
Tennessee tried to take the cheap route with a competition between 2022 UDFA Caleb Shudak and 2023 UDFA Trey Wolff, but both were cut, paving the way for stint No. 2 for Michael Badgley in Nashville.
Predictably, Badgley lasted just days before he was disposed of on Sunday, leaving Tennessee without a kicker for now.
But the aforementioned players are just four of many who have tried their hand at the Titans job since 2019. Here’s a look at the full list:
Austin Barnard (2018-19)
Ryan Succop (2014-2019)
Cairo Santos (2019)
Cody Parkey (2019)
Greg Joseph (2019-20)
Ryan Santoso (kickoff specialist, 2019)
Tucker McCann (2020-21)
Stephen Gostkowski (2020)
Giorgio Tavecchio (2020)
Sam Sloman (2020)
Blake Haubeil (2021)
Sam Ficken (2021)
Michael Badgley (2021, 2023)
Randy Bullock (2021-23)
Caleb Shudak (2022-23)
Josh Lambo (2022)
Trey Wolff (2023)
Nick Folk (2023)
