Gostowski has been with the Patriots since 2006, but his 2019 season was cut short due to a hip injury early on in the year. It is currently unclear if the Patriots will ride with Nick Folk who was Gostowski's replacement this year, or start a new with the draft.
While in New England, Gostkowski had an 87.4 percent success rate on field goals and a 98.3 percent success rate on extra points. He is the Patriots’ all-time franchise leader in successful field goals and successful extra points, and will leave as a three-time Super Bowl champion.
