Anders Carlson Joins Jets' 53-Man Roster

Anders Carlson has officially joined the New York Jets' 53-man roster after a successful performance as the team's kicker in a recent game against the Colts, where he made a career-long 58-yard field goal. This marks Carlson as the Jets' fourth starting kicker in as many weeks, following the signing of Spencer Shrader by the Chiefs. Carlson's previous experience includes a tumultuous first year with the Packers and a more consistent showing with the 49ers, where he successfully made all five field-goal attempts in two starts. His position may be temporary, pending the potential return of Greg Zuerlein from injured reserve. The Jets are clearly in a transitional phase with their kicking game, and Carlson's performance will be crucial in stabilizing the unit.
