Kasey Redfern
Player News
The Falcons waived Redfern on Tuesday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Redfern was a recent signee of the Falcons, as he was signed prior to Week 6's game against the Cardinals. The 28-year-old saw action in three games, accumulating a punting average of 41.2 yards in that span. With Matt Bosher (groin) residing on injured reserve, it's unclear who will take over punting duties.
The Falcons are expected to sign Redfern to the active roster Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
In the meantime, Redfern has been placed on the Falcons' practice squad Friday. He'll provide Atlanta with depth at the punter position while Matt Wile (quadriceps) nurses an injury.
Redfern (knee) punted four times in Saturday's preseason game against the 49ers.
Redfern was making his way back from a torn ACL and MCL back in 2017, and he was able to make his Cowboys debut last week. However, with Chris Jones on the roster and signed through 2021, it is unlikely Redfern cracks the final roster.
Panthers have signed punter Kasey Redfern.
The journeyman, seldom used veteran punter has been added to the 90-man roster after Swayze Waters was waived on Monday. Redfern was both a punter and kicker in college but has only punted in the NFL while with the Jaguars and a game with the Chargers. He will compete with Mike Scifres in camp for the lone punting spot on the final 53-man roster.
