Korean American NFL kicker Younghoe Koo helped the Atlanta Falcons to a 24-15 win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
Koo made all three of his extra point attempts and kicked a 39-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to clinch the game. The Falcons are now 5-6 in the regular season.
Atlanta has struggled this season but Koo has been a bright spot. During Week 7, he kicked a 51-yard field goal to help the Falcons beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the dying seconds of the game. A large portion of Atlanta’s points this year have come from the talented kicker.
His contributions have made him a fan-favorite.
