The Jacksonville Jaguars will sign veteran kicker Stephen Hauschka after rookie kicker Brandon Wright suffered a groin injury in last Thursday’s loss to the Miami Dolphins, a source tells ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Wright was subbing for Josh Lambo, who was placed on injured reserve with a left hip injury.
Hauschka was released by the Buffalo Bills last month after losing the team’s kicking competition to rookie kicker Tyler Bass.
Hauschka won a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks in 2013 and signed with the Bills four years later, making 87.9% of his kicks in his first season in Buffalo. He made 78.6% of his field goals in each of his past two seasons, however, including just 41.7% of his attempts for 50 yards or longer.
He spent six seasons as Seattle’s starting kicker after stints in Baltimore and Denver.
