The Jaguars' kicking search is back to square one.
He was cut by the Los Angeles Chargers. McCourt made two conversion attempts but did not attempt a field goal and couldn't beat out veteran Dustin Hopkins, who made 18 of 20 field-goal attempts last season after being signed by the Chargers in late October. Hopkins, an FSU graduate, signed a three-year extension in March.
Santoso missed field-goal attempts of 51 and 57 yards on Saturday in a 16-15 preseason game loss to Pittsburgh. He made kicks from 53 and 25 yards."We thank Ryan for what he did ... it's unfortunate but [it's] the downside of this business," Jaguars coachThe Jaguars have first rights to players waived and the team was trying to get McCourt to Atlanta for the joint practices on Wednesday and Thursday, and the game against the Falcons on Saturday.
Santoso had kicked well in camp after Elliott Fry was cut last week, making 13 of 14 attempts in two practices. He made 3 of 6 in preseason games, with all three misses 51 yards or longer.who was among the players waived during the first round of cuts on Aug. 15. Luton started three games for the Jags in 2020 and in the first two preseason games completed 22 of 38 passes for 186 yards, no touchdowns, one interception and a 59.76 passer rating.
EJ Perry, who was cut before training camp but re-signed when Luton was cut, was 6 of 11 for 92 yards against the Steelers but threw a costly interception in the red zone late against the Steelers when the Jags were in position to put the game away. Pederson said the decision to re-sign Luton was mostly to provide some cushion in the final week of training camp, with the joint practices and a game coming up, for backup quarterback"I just want to get C.J. 100 percent healthy and it just looked apparent on film during the game the other night that he wasn't necessarily 100 percent coming off this injury," Pederson said."This gives him to get healthy and it's a great opportunity for Jake to get some more time.
