The New Orleans Saints have released kicker Daniel Carlson, a former All-Pro, following another missed field goal in the team's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday.
Carlson, who had been with the Saints since the start of the season, missed a crucial attempt during the game, contributing to the defeat. The decision to part ways with the veteran kicker was announced shortly after the contest.
The Saints will now look for a replacement at the position as they prepare for their next matchup.
