For the first time since 2010, the New England Patriots need a new kicker.
Stephen Gostkowski, who’s struggled this season with four missed extra points in his last three games, was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, according to multiple reports.
The Patriots brought a slew of kickers in for workouts Wednesday afternoon in an effort to identify Gostkowski’s replacement. Veteran Kai Forbath was among them, per a report from ESPN’s Mike Reiss, but the identities of the rest have yet to be reported.
