The kicker later added a 33-yard make in the fourth quarter, but his earlier miss would prove to be the difference in the loss.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Awarded spot on Jets roster
The Jets signed to Sanders off their practice squad Tuesday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Though New York cut him at the conclusion of the preseason, Sanders re-signed with the organization as a member of the practice squad and was elevated for each of the Jets' first three games of the season. He went 5-for-6 on field-goal tries and drilled all five of his point-after attempts during that stretch, with his performance earning him a spot on the 53-man roster. Sanders should have more security as the Jets' kicker moving forward after New York waived Blake Grupe in a corresponding move.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Back to practice squad
Sanders reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Sanders made both of his kicks in Sunday's loss to the Lions, making one field goal and an extra point. Through three games to begin the season, Sanders is 5-for-6 on field-goal tries and 5-for-5 on PATs. The veteran kicker figures to handle duties again in Week 4 against the Bears, but he's not a recommended fantasy bet in this low-scoring Jets offense.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Nails both kicks against Detroit
Sanders converted on a 42-yard field goal and made his lone extra-point try during the Jets' 31-24 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Sanders' field goal in the third quarter reduced the Jets' deficit to 17-10, though he didn't end up attempting an extra point following each of the Jets' two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Through three regular-season games, the veteran kicker is 5-for-6 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra-point tries. Sanders has been elevated from the practice squad three times, so he would have to be signed to the Jets' active roster in order to suit up for the team against the Bears in Week 4.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Uses third elevation
The Jets elevated Sanders from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Sanders will once again be the Jets' primary kicker for the third consecutive week and is set to suit up for Sunday's game against the Lions. The 30-year-old has now expended all three of his practice squad elevations, meaning he will need to be signed to the Jets' active roster to kick for the team in Week 4 against the Bears.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Scheduled for elevation again
Sanders will kick for the Jets this Sunday at Detroit, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
It'll be Sanders' third elevation from the practice squad this season, which means the Jets will need to sign him to the 53-man roster thereafter if he's to continue kicking for them. They've also kept Blake Grupe around, perhaps hoping that he'll be ready for the job by Week 4.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Returns to practice squad
Sanders reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Sanders was elevated to the active roster for the second week in a row ahead of Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Packers. The kicker made his only field-goal attempt in the contest, converting a 32-yarder in the fourth quarter. Sanders can be elevated one more time before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster, and he appears likely to operate as the Jets' starting kicker again Week 3 versus Detroit.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Elevated once again
The Jets elevated Sanders from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Amanda Vogt of the team's official site reports.
Sanders will come up from the practice squad for the second week in a row to handle kicking duties for the Jets. Though Blake Grupe is signed to the 53-man roster, the Jets could eventually move on from him to open up a full-time spot for Sanders if he performs well enough to hold down the kicking job. In his team debut in last Sunday's win over the Titans, Sanders converted on both of his point-after tries and connected on field goals of 33, 51 and 52 yards while missing badly from 54 yards.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Will kick again this week
Sanders will remain the Jets' kicker for Sunday's game against the Packers, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Blake Grupe remains on the active roster for the Jets, but for the second time in as many weeks Sanders will be brought up from the practice squad to handle the kicking duties. Sanders made three of four field-goal attempts -- his lone miss came from 54 yards -- and both of his extra-point tries in Week 1, and another steady showing would help him secure his grasp on the job.

Sanders reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Sanders was elevated to be the starting kicker for the Jets' 23-10 win over the Titans on Sunday. The 30-year-old made three of his four field-goal attempts and both of his PATs, totaling 11 points as he battles Blake Grupe to maintain a role with the team. Sanders made field goals from 33, 51 and 52 yards while missing from 54 yards.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Elevated after winning battle
The Jets have elevated Sanders from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Sanders won the kicking battle over Cade York this summer despite neither instilling confidence in the Jets' coaching staff. The team elected to sign Blake Grupe, who also has not shown enough to start, giving Sanders a chance in Week 1. If Sanders has a strong week, he will likely be elevated once more in Week 2 before the team must decide who will truly hold the starting job throughout the regular season.

Jets' Jason Sanders: Will kick for Jets this week
Sanders will serve as the Jets' kicker this week, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Sanders won a job battle against Cade York this summer, but the Jets weren't confident in either kicker and decided to sign Blake Grupe while moving Sanders to the practice squad. It now seems Grupe didn't show enough in practice to win the Week 1 placekicking job, but the Jets may keep him around in case Sanders struggles.

Jason Sanders: Cut loose by New York
Sanders was released by the Jets on Monday, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.
Sanders appeared likely to operate as New York's starting kicker in 2026 after the team let Cade York go Tuesday, but after the team added Blake Grupe on Monday, Sanders will hit the open market. The kicker made two of three field-goal attempts and went 2-for-3 on PATs during the preseason, and he now will look for another opportunity elsewhere.
