Saints add K Austin Seibert to practice squad

With Blake Grupe dealing with a minor groin injury, the Saints have added a kicker.

New Orleans signed Austin Seibert to its practice squad, according to multiple reports.

Seibert was one of several kickers to have a tryout with the club on Tuesday.

Seibert played one game for the Jets this season in place of Greg Zuerlein, hitting one field goal and one extra point. In 31 games for Cleveland, Detroit, Cincinnati, and New York since 2019, Seibert has connected on 45-of-56 career field goals and 56-of-62 extra points. He’s also sent 37 percent of his kickoffs for touchbacks.

Grupe has connected on 24-of-30 field goals this season and all 19 of his extra points. He’s sent 89.5 percent of his kickoffs for touchbacks.
