Impact After New York cut Koo, Sauls is the only kicker remaining on the 53-man roster or practice squad, making him the logical choice to replace Koo unless the Giants opt to sign another kicker in the coming days. If he receives the nod for Week 16, Sauls would become the Giants' fourth full-time kicker this season. Since going undrafted out of Pittsburgh this spring, Sauls has been part of three different organizations but has yet to make his NFL debut. He converted field-goal attempts at an 81.3 percent clip over his five-year collegiate career.

Finds work with G-Men The Giants signed Sauls to the practice squad Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Cut from Atlanta's practice squad The Falcons cut Sauls from the practice squad Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

Impact The Falcons also released Parker Romo while signing Zane Gonzalez to the active roster, with the latter set to serve as the team's placekicker moving forward, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Sauls joined the Falcons' practice squad in late September after spending the offseason with the Steelers, though he wasn't able to beat out veteran Chris Boswell for a spot on the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. Sauls -- an undrafted rookie out of Pittsburgh -- could get another opportunity with a team looking to bring in a placekicker for a kicking competition or as an injury replacement.

Gets opportunity with Atlanta The Falcons signed Sauls to the practice squad Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

Impact Sauls was cut by the Steelers in late August after failing to beat out Chris Boswell for starting kicking duties in training camp. Saul's addition to the practice squad comes after head coach Raheem Morris said Monday that the Falcons would bring in competition after Parker Romo went 0-for-2 on field goals in Atlanta's 30-0 loss to Carolina on Sunday, per Waack. Sauls went 5-for-6 on field-goal attempts across three preseason games with the Steelers.

SEPTEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Cut by Pittsburgh The Steelers waived Sauls on Monday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

Impact With Chris Boswell sitting outwhile seeking a contract extension, Sauls handled the kicking duties in all three of the Steelers' preseason games, going 5-for-6 on field-goal attempts while making all six of his extra-point tries. Boswell will remain on the Steelers' roster as the team's starting kicker, but Saul should get an opportunity to compete on another team whose kicking situation is less solidified.
