Justin Tucker Suspension Lifted — Should Saints Sign Him and CUT Blake Grupe?

After Further Review On Demand is powered by BREC Golf Matt Moscona dives into the New Orleans Saints' kicking woes as the team heads into their bye week, which follows a miserable start to the season and their longest losing streak since 1981. The focus is squarely on Blake Grupe, who is 17 of 23 on the year, missing kicks from manageable distances and undeniably costing the team opportunities to win games in the early season. Moscona emphasizes that while the Saints might want to invest in Grupe's upside, the NFL demands performance. The crux of the conversation centers on former All-Pro kicker Justin Tucker, whose 10-week suspension following a personal conduct policy investigation has just been lifted, making him an eligible free agent. Moscona weighs the massive dilemma for the Saints: Tucker, a five-time First-Team All-Pro with a Hall of Fame résumé, would provide the certainty the team lacks, even if his 73.3% field goal rate last year was the worst of his career. The counterpoints are Tucker's off-field controversy and whether a non-contending Saints team should play the long game with Grupe's development. Moscona ultimately concludes that, given Grupe’s costly misses, the team should at least bring Tucker in for a workout to see if there is 3 to 5 years of "Prime Justin Tucker" left, as that is a better option than continuing the "charade" with Grupe.
