Titans To Re-Sign K Nick Folk

Nick Folk is sticking in Tennessee for another season. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the veteran kicker is re-signing with the Titans.

Folk is inking a one-year, $3.755MM deal that can max out at $4.13MM via incentives. Folk played out the 2023 campaign on the final season of a two-year, $5MM extension he signed with the Patriots back in 2022.

The Titans were the fifth team that Folk added to his NFL resume, as he was traded to Tennessee from New England last offseason. During his age-39 season, Folk ended up having one of the most efficient seasons of his career. He converted a league-leading 96.7 percent of his field goal attempts, and he hit 28 of his 30 XP tries.

Kickoffs were a concern during Folk’s final season in New England. The veteran took on the responsibility in 2022 after Jake Bailey went down with injury, but the Patriots eventually had to promote another kicker to handle the duties. He rebounded a bit in Tennessee; after only 9.1 percent of his kickoffs resulted in a touchback in 2022, that number improved to 50.8 percent this past season.

With at least another season under his belt, Folk can continue to climb the NFL’s all-time scoring list. Folk currently sits 23rd all time, and he’s fourth among active players (behind Mason Crosby, Matt Prater, and Justin Tucker).
