"The Falcons' kicking rollercoaster took another turn in Week 3 with John Parker Romo missing both of his attempts in Sunday's loss to the Panthers. Granted, those kicks came from 49 and 55 yards, so Atlanta may have some patience after signing Romo to a two-year contract last week. The Falcons still brought in some potential competition in Sauls, an undrafted rookie who spent training camp with the Steelers and made five of his six field goals in the preseason."
"Watson signed with the Buccaneers after the draft but remained on the non-football injury list as he worked to get his weight to a more manageable level. He was waived during final roster cuts, but the team hosted him for a workout last week, per FOX Sports' Greg Auman. Watson met the team's athletic requirements to earn his way back on the practice squad, according to Auman, and will return just in time for the Bucs' Week 4 matchup with the Eagles."
Multiple NFL teams made practice-squad moves ahead of Week 4 across several franchises. The Falcons continued to evaluate kicking after John Parker Romo missed two long attempts from 49 and 55 yards, while the team brought in undrafted rookie Sauls, who spent training camp with the Steelers and converted five of six preseason field goals. Wright is expected to miss four to six weeks with a foot injury. The Buccaneers added nose tackle Watson to the practice squad after he worked off the non-football injury list, passed a team workout and met athletic requirements; he is expected to contribute beyond a single matchup.
