The Atlanta Falcons are making a change at kicker, officially releasing veteran Nick Folk and signing Jake Moody off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz . Moody will be added to Atlanta's 53-man roster and is expected to take over kicking right away.

The move comes after another disappointing performance from Folk in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran kicker missed a 38-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, adding to a growing list of struggles that ultimately cost him his job in Atlanta.

Moody, meanwhile, is coming off a successful appearance for Baltimore. He connected on a 53-yard field goal against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday, showing the leg strength Atlanta hopes to add to its special teams unit.
