Falcons Pro Bowl kicker Younghoe Koo, who’s at the team’s facilities Monday working out, recently had his car stolen with his cleats in it, confirmed his agent Brooks Henderson.
Koo took to social media Sunday pleading for the return of his cleats. He posted an Instagram story stating that his black Jeep Grand Cherokee was stolen from an Atlanta parking lot.
“MFs stole my Jeep smh,” Koo wrote while staring at an empty parking space. “Can you just bring my cleats back, though? I won’t even be mad bro — just bring all my cleats back so I can go kick.”
Koo, who set to turn 27 on Aug. 3, played at Georgia Southern and was signed by the Falcons midway through the 2019 season.
After making 37 of 39 field goals and 33 of 36 extra points last season, Koo was named to the Pro Bowl. He was undrafted and started his career in the NFL with the San Diego Chargers in 2017 before he played for the now-defunct Atlanta Legends of the Alliance of American Football. He also spent some time on the Patriots’ practice squad.
Koo signed a one-year contract extension worth $920,000 on March 11, 2021.
The Falcons are set to report for training camp on Tuesday, July 27.
