About this episode

Jake Moody Returns to Washington Commanders on One-Year Deal: A Kickers Journey

Jake Moody, a 27-year-old kicker, has signed a one-year deal with the Washington Commanders after initially being released. Moody, a third-round pick from the San Francisco 49ers in 2023, had a successful rookie season but struggled later, leading to his release from the 49ers and a stint on the Chicago Bears practice squad. He joined the Commanders mid-season and performed well, making 10 of 11 field goals and 10 of 11 extra points. Despite his success, the Commanders may still look for competition at the kicker position due to past instability at the role.

Earlier this week, it seemed like they were done with him after skipping the restricted free agent tender that would have cost $3.5 million. Turns out, that was just a paperwork step and they locked him in on Friday for less money. Moody, a 27-year-old third-round pick from the San Francisco 49ers back in the 2023 draft has bounced around. Lately, he's shown as a rookie, but hit rough patches, including getting cut early in the 2025 season after some missed kicks.
