Matthew Wright has been added to the Falcons’ practice squad. Koo was sidelined with a back injury.
Wright spent the offseason with the Panthers and earlier this season on the 49ers practice squad, but he last appeared in a game with the Steelers last season. In four games with the team, he was 12-of-14 on field goals and 7-of-7 on extra points. Wright has also played regular-season football for the Chiefs and Jaguars.
This season, Koo has made 21 of 22 field goals and 14 of 15 extra points.
