Gostkowski, who spent his entire career with the New England Patriots, has been working out with the Titans for the past couple of days. In Tennessee, the 36-year-old kicker will be coached by Mike Vrabel, with whom he was a teammate in New England.

Titans organized competition at the kicker position during training camp with Joseph and undrafted rookie Tucker McCann eyeing the job. The team, however, wasn’t satisfied with either of the options so they decided to bring in a proven veteran.

Stephen Gostkowski was Pats’ full-time kicker since 2006, and currently holds the franchise’s career scoring record with 1,775 points. During his time in New England, Gostkowski won three Super Bowls, made four Pro Bowl appearances, and received All-Pro honors three times.

Gostkowski’s career stats include making 87.4 percent of his field-goal attempts and 98.3 percent conversion on extra points.

Patriots confirmed on Monday that they released Gostkowski, who will leave the franchise after 14 years.

According to reports, Patriots opted to release Gostkowski, who was the longest-tenured player on the roster after Brady left, in order to give themselves some salary-cap relief. The 36-year-old was scheduled to earn $4.8 million next season.

New England is projected to have the second-least cap space for 2020 NLF season, with only Super Bowl champions Kansas City Chiefs having less. Pats’ cap struggles are mostly the result of dead money originating from the contracts of players that are not on their roster, including Brady, Antonio Brown, and Michael Bennett.

Patriots drafted Stephen Gostkowski in the fourth round of 2006 NFL Draft with the intention to make him Adam Vinatieri’s successor. Gostkowski responded to the task exceptionally, proving to be clutch in deciding moments and helping New England win three more Super Bowls.

Gostkowski, who has four Pro Bowl appearances, will leave New England Patriots as the team’s all-time leading scorer with 1,775 points. During his time with the franchise, he made 374 out of 428 field goals attempted while converting 98% of his extra points. In the playoffs, he was 31-for-36 on FGs and 79-for-83 on extra points.

Although Gostowski can be activated from the IR in eight weeks, multiple reports say that the surgery is season ending. He is, however, expected to make a full recovery in time for the start of 2020 season.

Gostkowski was drafted by the Patriots in the fourth round of 2006 NFL Draft, and has been the team’s starting kicker ever since. During his time with the organization, he won three Super Bowl rings, made four Pro Bowl appearances, and received two First-Team All-Pro honors.

Gostowski has converted 87.4 percent of his field goals during his time in the league, making 367 FGs out of 420 attempts. He is Pats’ most accurate kicker in the history of the franchise and third most accurate in NFL history.

According to ESPN, Patriots worked out several kickers in recent days before deciding on veteran Mike Nugent. Nugent entered the league in 2005 and has played with New York Jets, Cincinnati Bengals, and Oakland Raiders among other teams. Over the course of his career, he made 247 field goals out of 305 attempts.
