The Atlanta Falcons had used the same kicker since 2019.
But on Sunday Night Football, Younghoe Koo wasn't kicking.
Instead, Atlanta had Parker Romo out there on field goals and extra points.
The Falcons have put themselves in a weird spot as it pertains to Koo.

Where is Younghoe Koo?
Younghoe Koo is inactive on Sunday night, for non-injury reasons.
The Falcons held a kicker competition during the week, and Romo won it.
But the Falcons don't want to cut Koo yet, so they just made him inactive.
It delays an eventual decision on who Atlanta's full-time kicker will be going forward.
Last season, Romo had a stint with the Minnesota Vikings in which he made 11-of-12 field goals, so he can get the job done.

Koo has been the Falcons' kicker since 2019. He actually made his first try at a game-tying kick in Week 1, but the Buccaneers had used a timeout just before the snap to ice him, and on his second try, he missed wide right.
He had his worst NFL season last year, making only 73.5% of his field goal attempts. Koo had never been below 86% for a season before that.
For now, Romo has the job.
Koo will have to hope he gets another chance, either in Atlanta or elsewhere.
