Nick Folk will continue to be the New England Patriots’ kicker.
We know this, because Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said Monday, “Nick’s our kicker.”
Folk is just 1-of-3 on field goals through two games, though he has hit 6-of-6 extra points. Folk missed from 45 yards in Week 1 and 51 yards in the Patriots’ Week 2 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He did make a 25-yarder later in the game.
Folk’s missed kick loomed large at the end of the Patriots’ 35-30 Week 2 loss. The Patriots needed a touchdown to beat the Seahawks in the final seconds but came up short.
