The New York Jets have signed former Carolina Panthers kicker Chandler Catanzaro to a contract. The terms of the deal have not been disclosed.
The Panthers added Catanzaro to the roster in December as a ‘break glass in case of emergency’ option after Graham Gano suffered a knee injury during practice. Catanzaro, or ‘Cat-Man’ as he is apparently called (Why did I not know this?!) ended up taking Gano’s roster spot for the final four games of the season and did an admirable job in his stead, going 5-for-5 in field goal attempts and 7-for-8 in extra point tries.
