Appreciate the memories. Glad he was able to get a second chance and carve out a career for himself. Wish him nothing but the best.
Sad day for what he has done but had to happen — best of luck
Hope he resets somewhere else. #RIPmyGOAT
Actually sad about a kicker being cut which shows how great he was for a while
And I was just worrying about Parker Romo getting claimed by another team.
Koo was incredible for us but it’s that time.
He was awesome for us until he wasn’t.
It was so obvious last season that something was wrong with him, but we kept sending him out there to miss kicks anyway.
Oh so they didn’t wait to see Romo kick another week.
Not as much of an anchor contract after all huh? Good luck Koo
Man it sucks but had to be done. Hopefully he can rebound on another team and have a few more good years. Hope nothin but the best for him.
Thanks for everything Koo. Hope you land back on your feet
He won us a lot of games for a few years and was a top 5 kicker in the league no question. It was time to let him go. Wishing Koo the best!
2nd highest paid kicker in the league. He had to go.
Thank you! Forever a Falcon
Best of luck for the future.
I will always appreciate Koo for most of his time here in Atlanta. Plus he went to Georgia Southern as well. Mostly up ‘til the first game against the Saints last year, he was very clutch for us. Idk what happened afterwards, but outside of the last year or so, thank you very much for the memories in spite of the mediocre teams we had.
thanks koo! some great times, some bad times, but you were a solid kicker for us for a long time. in terms of legacy, i’d put him behind bryant and andersen but he’s one of the franchise’s best.
Have two signed #7 Koo jerseys, don’t regret it all. Shame it ended but he gave us his best years!
“I want to thank the Falcons organization for giving me an opportunity when no one else would six years ago. This place helped me grow as a kicker and as a man. I will forever be grateful for the support from the fans during my time here. I have nothing but love and respect for everyone in the building, I wish yall the best. I’m full of gratitude and excitement as I continue my journey in this league.” -Koo
I’ll never forget when he was practically our best player for two years straight. I’ll always have love for Koo. But it was time. I hope he finds somewhere else though
I saw Koo kick the game winner in Tampa in 2023, I was sitting third row probably right at the 35 yard line, so we were pretty much perpendicular to him and the goalpost. Given the angle, I knew it’d be no good to watch the goalposts to know if it went in, so I watched Koo. Seeing this guy turn and stare down our sideline, basically looking right at me, take off his helmet and sling it off to the side is one of my favorite in-person sports memories, and one I hope I’ll never forget. I’ve looked for photos or a shot of him from the same angle I had, in hopes to preserve it, but haven’t found any. I wish he’d been able to have more long term success here, and wish him well, unless he goes to the Saint.
Our Korean GOAT, we’ll miss you…..
Kooooooooooooooooooooo
Never forgotten. Thanks for moving on with grace, King.
I liked Koo, wish him the best. Thanks for everything.
I still remember the 3 successful consecutive onside kicks in 1 game
It’s a true shame he never got to kick for us in any postseason games. Wish he could have been here for any future success we have. I’ll never forget those onside kicks way back when. Hope he rebounds
Wow
Koreans not doing great in Georgia jobs market this month.
Thanks for the memories. I hope he can revive his career and stick around in the league for five more years.
There was more good than bad with Koo. I appreciate that guy.
I loved having a Georgia Southern guy on the Falcons but when it’s time it’s time. Genuinely wish nothing but the best for Koo
It was fun while it lasted. But every grown man knows you can’t keep a younghoe
Good luck to a great Falcon. He was fun, his name was fun to hear the crowds chant, and he won us a lot of games before he started losing them.
Truly one of the best, just an unfortunate end.
Really sad to see his fall off. Once a top 3 kicker in the league to being a total liability. I have to admit I’m very relieved he’s off the team now, but I do appreciate the good times too
