York did not attempt a field goal and converted both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Steelers in Week 18.
What it means:
York had a quiet season finale but finished the season on a high note, making all eight kicks over the final three weeks. It was an uneven season for the rookie, who became a legend in training but made just 75 percent (24 of 32) of field-goal attempts. The Browns spent fourth-round draft capital on the LSU product, and while he may not have solidified the kicking game as envisioned, they expect him to be their kicker in 2023.
York converted his lone field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 24-10 win over Washington in Week 17.
What it means:
York gave the Browns a 3-0 first-quarter lead when he buried a 37-yarder. Later in the quarter, he booted chip shot from 25 yards, but Washington was offside on the play. That prompted head head coach Kevin Stefanski to bring the offense back to go for it on 4th-and goal from the 3-yard line, but Washington stopped them on downs.
York converted his lone field-goal attempt and extra-point try in Saturday's 17-10 loss to New Orleans.
What it means:
York connected from 30 yards but was not given a shot at longer kicks on a brutally cold day in Cleveland. Two drives ended on the Saints' side of the field, but attempts would have been from 59 and 60 yards. The Browns have averaged 11 points over the last three games, which suggests York is not a good option for fantasy teams still in the hunt.
York made two of four field-goal attempts and one extra-point kick in Saturday's 13-3 win over Baltimore.
What it means:
York was in position for a big day but missed from 38 and 46 yards on successive possessions in the fourth quarter. Fortunately for the Browns, the rookie kicker's miscues had no impact. York's made just 73 percent (22 of 30) of his field-goal attempts and missed a total of 10 kicks this season.
York pleaded with coaches to let him attempt a 68-yard field goal in last week's loss to the Bengals, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. "If I'm asking for the kick, I think I can make it," York said.
What it means:
The Browns were at the 50-yard line and trailing, 13-3, with time running out in the first half. When quarterback Deshaun Watson spiked the ball to stop the clock, York lobbied to try the kick, but head coach Kevin Stefanski opted for a Hail Mary pass, which was unsuccessful. The rookie placekicker has converted four of seven attempts from beyond the 50, including a 58-yarder, and had a 60-yard effort blocked against the Ravens in October. York conceded never attempting a kick from 68 yards in pre-game warmups, but he felt confident he could make it.
York converted his lone field-goal attempt and extra-point kick in Sunday's 23-10 loss to Cincinnati.
What it means:
York's make was shortie from 26 yards, and the rookie's four-point week tied a season low. The Browns were in position for three points on their opening drive, but head coach Kevin Stefanski opted to go for it but the play failed to produce a first down. York ranks 17th among placekickers with 88 points through 14 games (6.8 PPG).
