Chargers' Koo misses last-second FG for 2nd straight game

Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports

Younghoe Koo won the Los Angeles Chargers kicking job out of training camp, but he may not make it to Week 3 after missing a last-second field goal for the second straight game.

The 23-year-old had a 44-yard attempt to win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, but pushed the kick wide to the right, giving the road team the victory.

In Week 1 against the Denver Broncos, Koo's 44-yard potential game-tying field goal was blocked short with one second left. He had made the kick just seconds earlier, but the Broncos called timeout right before the snap, rendering the made field goal meaningless.

The Chargers drop to 0-2 with the miss while the Dolphins are 1-0 after missing the opening week due to Hurricane Irma.
