Falcons just ended Parker Romo's fairy tale as quickly as it began
However, that came at the expense of Romo, as NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported that the Falcons were releasing the young placekicker as his consistency continued to falter. Garafolo also reported that Atlanta has signed Zane Gonzalez to take the 28-year-old's place on the active roster.
The Falcons will waive Romo on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Romo joined the Falcons in the wake of Younghoe Koo missing a game-tying field goal attempt at the buzzer in a Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers. Romo was 11-of-14 on field goals and 12-of-13 on extra points for Atlanta.
