Nick Novak, Chargers Agree to Contract, Younghoe Koo Waived

The Los Angeles Chargers announced Thursday that they have waived kicker Younghoe Koo and signed veteran Nick Novak as his replacement.

Koo, an undrafted free agent out of Georgia Southern, won the Chargers' kicking job in the preseason.

However, his rookie season got off to a rocky start when a potential game-winning field-goal attempt was blocked in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. The following week, Koo missed a would-be game-winner from 44 yards out versus the Miami Dolphins.
