After he left I scratched a couple letters on my Folk jersey to spell something different now I can’t scratch it back
Knocked down 6 of 6 in practice. Not bad for a 41 year old. Certainly better than what others have done throughout the OTAs and Camp. The job seems to his for the taking.
Folk continues to do well and is clearly outplaying fat kicker Mevis, who should probably be cut at this point: https://x.com/ZackBlatt/status/1951643011965743545 "Nick Folk just went 4/5. Missed from 48, made from 52. Harrison Mevis: 2/5, missed from 43 48 and 52, missing wide left on two of them and wide right on the other."
He went 3 for 3 in the Packers game but I didn't like his kicking style, zero finesse, all power even on the short yardage and he pulled two of the kicks but obviously they still went in but I don't think he is a reliable option.
I think the fact that Mevis handled all the kicking in the Packers game is an indication that this "competition" is already over and Folk will be the kicker. They are letting Mevis kick to help the guy find a new job somewhere
That was Fat kicker who kicked, not Folk. Looks shaky I agree, even though he did make all 3. It's Folk's job unless he completely sucks, and so far he did well.
In the thread that Brook put up about the chances of people making the squad, the guy who wrote it was nearly advocating him just for the kick-offs rather than the FG duties, which would be very bizarre.
Folk is rock solid. https://x.com/ZackBlatt/status/1955650118922940503 "Kicker update: Nick Folk went 6/6, including two from 50+."
