Aldrick Rosas - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Not kicking this week The Lions didn't elevate Rosas from their practice squad for Thursday's game against Chicago, likely leaving Riley Patterson as the placekicker, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Pr...

Impact Rosas played four games for the Saints earlier this season and made both of his kicks for the Lions last week. Patterson is expected to get his first experience in a regular-season game this week.

Perfect in Lions debut Rosas converted his only field-goal attempt and PAT during Sunday's 13-10 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Rosas made his Lions debut after signing with the team on Saturday. While he predictably didn't see many opportunities thanks to a poor offense that was down to backup quarterback Tim Boyle, Rosas was perfect on the chances he received despite the imperfect weather in Cleveland. However, Rosas would be a bottom-tier option even if starting QB Jared Goff were healthy, and he's even less of a recommended fantasy option if Boyle remains under center in Week 12 against Chicago.

Kicking for Detroit in Week 11 Rosas is active for Sunday's contest at Cleveland and will serve as Detroit's kicker.

Impact In the wake of Austin Seibert (hip) hitting injured reserve ahead of Week 10 action, Ryan Santoso was elevated from the practice squad and served as the Lions' placekicker during last Sunday's 16-16 tie in Pittsburgh. Santoso ended up making one of two field-goal attempts and one of two point-after tries. While Santoso reverted to the practice squad Monday, Detroit signed Riley Patterson to the active roster Tuesday, setting up a scenario in which the team used a third kicker this season. Rather than going with Patterson -- who is inactive for the contest -- the Lions will turn to the more battled-tested Rosas, who previously went 13-for-13 on extra-point attempts but just 1-for-4 on field-goal tries while kicking for the Saints in the first four games of the season.

Elevated from practice squad Rosas was elevated from the Lions' practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact Rosas joined Detroit's practice squad Tuesday and will suit up for Sunday's matchup since Austin Seibert (hip) is on injured reserve. Riley Patterson also signed with the Lions this week, and it's not yet clear who will handle placekicking duties against Cleveland.

NOVEMBER 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Cut by New Orleans Rosas was released by the Saints on Tuesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Rosas filled in as the Saints' placekicker for the first four games of the season, but he's been let go after going 1-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 13-for-13 on PATs. Cody Parkey signed with New Orleans on Tuesday and will kick until Wil Lutz (abdomen) returns from injured reserve.

Kicking woes continue Rosas missed his only field-goal attempt but converted three of three PATs during Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Giants.

Impact After Rosas missed two field-goal tries last week, it was at least a positive that he was trusted to take a 58-yarder that was again pushed wide. However, he's now 1-for-4 on the year and has not even remotely given the Saints a reason to keep him around whenever Wil Lutz (abdomen) is ready to return, which could happen as soon as Week 5 against Washington.

Misses two field-goal attempts Rosas missed both of his field-goal attempts but converted each of his four PATs during Sunday's 28-13 win over New England.

Impact Rosas missed wide left on tries from 36 and 52 yards out in the final game before Wil Lutz (abdomen) is eligible to return from IR. While the Saints still won the game and it's possible Lutz isn't healthy enough to return to action in Week 4, it wouldn't be a complete surprise if New Orleans explores other options at kicker this week.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

No field-goal attempts Rosas converted one of one PAT during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Getting another opportunity with the Saints while Will Lutz (abdomen) remains on IR, Rosas only needed to handle a pair of kickoffs and an extra-point try thanks to New Orleans' offensive implosion. Not only was the end zone hard to reach, but getting within field-goal range was as well as both Jameis Winston and Alvin Kamara struggled to generate much of anything. Unfortunately, a Week 3 trip to New England is a difficult spot for a rebound, especially after Bill Belichick's defense forced four interceptions against the Jets in Week 2.

Bumps up from practice squad The Saints signed Rosas off their practice squad Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Rosas got the first shot to fill in as the Saints' placekicker Week 1 while Wil Lutz recovers from core-muscle surgery. In his debut with the team this past Sunday against the Packers, Rosas nailed a 44-yard field goal to kick off the scoring and made all five of his point-after attempts. In what appears to be a high-scoring offense, he should have plenty of opportunities to score in Lutz's absence as a member of the 53-man roster instead of being reduced to a practice-squad elevation, as he was Week 1.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Reverts back to practice squad Rosas reverted back to the Saints' practice squad Monday, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.

Impact With Wil Lutz (abdomen) on injured reserve, the Saints elevated Rosas to their active roster for Week 1. Lutz is expected to miss eight to 12 weeks, so it is possible that Rosas continues to bounce between the practice squad and active roster on a weekly basis. The 26-year-old converted his only field-goal attempt and connected on all five of his extra points against the Packers.

Filling in for Lutz The Saints will sign Rosas, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact With Wil Lutz bouncing back from core muscle surgery and slated to miss time early on this season, the team needed to bring in a kicker in advance of Week 1 and Rosas gets the first shot to fill in after turning in a good workout with the Saints. Rosas kicked in six games with the Jaguars last season, making eight of his 11 field goal attempts, en route to recording 33 points.

Released by Jags Rosas (undisclosed) was released with a non-football injury designation Friday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

Impact Jacksonville will go with Josh Lambo as its kicker. Once Rosas heals up, he will have the opportunity to sign with any team in need of kicking help.

Hits NFI list The Jagurs placed Rosas (undisclosed) on the non-football injury list Wednesday, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

Impact Rosas' chances of securing Jacksonville's kicker job over Josh Lambo could be affected if he misses a significant portion of training camp due to his injury. He made eight of 11 field-goal tries in six appearances with the team in 2020.

JULY 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Competing with Lambo Rosas and Josh Lambo were alternating field-goal attempts in "pressurized situations" during mandatory minicamp, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.

Impact Rosas re-signed with Jacksonville in March after appearing in six games last season and going 8-for-11 on field-goal attempts and making all nine PATs. Lambo spent most of the season on injured reserve with a hip injury, but he's converted 95 percent of field goals since signing in 2017. Rosas likely will need a strong showing in training camp in order to supplant Lambo.

Back in Jacksonville The Jaguars re-signed Rosas on Wednesday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Rosas appeared in six games with the Jaguars last season, converting eight of 11 field-goal attempts (73 percent) and all nine of his extra-point tries. He'll offer Josh Lambo (hip) competition this offseason.

MARCH 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Makes both PATs Rosas didn't attempt a field goal and converted both extra-point attempts during Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Colts.

Impact The 26-year-old had minimal opportunities in the finale with Jacksonville missing its two best offensive weapons in DJ Chark (shin) and James Robinson (ankle). Rosas went 8-for-11 on field goal attempts and 9-for-9 on PATs in six games. He's set to hit free agency this offseason with Josh Lambo (hip) returning from injury to reclaim kicking duties for Jacksonville in 2021.
