Jets are coaching six kickers, including Cade York and Zane Gonzalez

Greg Zuerlein remains the Jets’ kicker. It doesn’t seem like it will last long.

The Jets worked out kickers Zane Gonzalez, Brayden Narveson, Riley Patterson, Spencer Shrader, Andre Szmyt and Cade York at MetLife Stadium on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo reports.

York missed his two attempts in his only game for Washington this season and is 24 of 34 in his career; Gonzalez, who hasn’t kicked in the NFL since 2021, is 91-of-113 (80.5 percent) in career field-goal percentage and 127-of-134 in extra-point percentage; Narveson has scored in six games for the Packers this season, making just 12 of 17 field goals; Patterson is 59 of 67 (88.1 percent) in his 39-game career over three seasons; Shrader made all three extra point attempts in his only game with the Colts this season and did not attempt a field goal; and Szmyt has never played a regular season game.

Jets coach Jeff Ulbrich said the team will continue tryouts for kickers on Wednesday.

Zuerlein is just 9 of 15 on field goal attempts and 13 of 14 on extra points. Two misses were within 40 yards and three others were within 50 yards.

The kickoff winner is expected to do the job on Thursday Night Football against the Jets.
