New York Jets conduct workout for free agent kicker Joshua Karty

The New York Jets held a workout for free agent kicker Joshua Karty on September 2, 2026. This move follows a period of instability for the team at the position, which has involved multiple roster moves in the last week. The Jets recently named Jason Sanders the starter before he struggled in the preseason finale, leading the team to claim Blake Grupe off the waiver wire. Currently, Sanders resides on the practice squad while Grupe occupies a spot on the active roster. The team continues to evaluate options as the position battle persists into the early part of the season. Karty, a 24-year-old who previously played for the Los Angeles Rams, could potentially fill a practice squad role if signed by the organization. The franchise has yet to finalize its long-term plans for the kicking duties.
