Fans erupted in laughter and hilarious references after New York Giants kicker Younghoe Koo failed miserably during his field goal attempt in the second quarter of the game against the New England Patriots.
The Giants sent out Koo to hit a 46-yarder. However, instead of striking the ball cleanly, Koo’s foot got stuck in the turf as he completely missed the football. The holder, Jamie Gillan, tried to salvage the play, scrambling with the ball, but was quickly tackled for a sack, resulting in a turnover.
This field goal attempt will never go down in the books as the ball was never kicked. Instead, the holder will take a sack against his name.
“Younghoe Koo got some Ohtani-level gambling debt,” one fan hilariously drew a reference to four-time MVP and Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani’s past troubles with gambling.

“Wait a second give me another chance lol 😂” one fan reacted.
“It’s weird, man. It’s not normal. Given this guy is on the fringes of NFL employability, it should be looked into,” one fan hints at potential betting situation.
“This s*it is the must obvious throwing of a performance. I mean …. 1000% guaranteed The kicker’s brother owes some gambling debts,” one fan added.
“The one time I bet on an nfl kicker,” one fan commented.
“The score was 7 to 17 though. That 1 pt? Doubt it was gambling. Just a stupid way to miss,” one fan wrote.
Giants Kicker Younghoe Koo Not Having Great Season In 2025
Giants kicker Younghoe Koo was among the most consistent kickers in the NFL, and even had a historically high field-goal percentage. However, in 2025, things haven’t been the same, and it might cost the Giants’ kicker his job as well.
Koo’s field-goal percentage sits at 85.7%. Meanwhile, his extra-point success rate is 90.0%, which is well below what most NFL kickers aim for. His longest successful field goal attempt was a 44-yarder, and so far this season, he has scored 27 points.
