The Giants reverted Crosby to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. New York's season is over, but Crosby could potentially still see postseason action if another team were to sign him off the Giants' practice squad. The veteran kicker went 2-for-3 on field-goal tries and converted all three extra-point attempts in Sunday's win over Philadelphia. He finished the campaign having gone 5-for-7 on field-goal attempts and 6-for-7 on extra-point tries over three games.

The Giants elevated Crosby from the practice squad Saturday in advance of Sunday's game versus the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Crosby thus will serve as the Giants' placekicker for a third straight contest to end the campaign. On the first two occasions, he struck true on three of four field-goal attempts and three of four point-after tries.

The Giants reverted Crosby to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Crosby has been New York's gameday kicker each of the past two weeks, going 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-4 on extra-point tries over that span. The veteran missed a 54-yard field-goal attempt late in the fourth quarter that could have won the game for the Giants on Sunday, but he did drill a 52-yarder Week 16 against Philadelphia. Unless New York opts to look for another option ahead of its final game of the season Sunday versus the Eagles, Crosby will likely kick for the team again in that contest.

Crosby went 2-for-3 on field-goal tries and 1-for-2 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's Week 17 loss to the Rams. Crosby hit a 31-yard field goal to end the first half and a 32-yarder early in the fourth quarter, but he couldn't come through on a much more challenging 54-yarder that could have won the game with 35 seconds remaining in the contest. That kick was necessitated in part by Crosby's missed extra point in the third period, as New York consequently trailed by one and opted to try to take the lead with a failed two-point conversion following a Gunner Olszewski 94-yard punt-return TD with 3:27 remaining in the game. Crosby's opportunity to kick has come as a result of Graham Gano (knee) and Randy Bullock (hamstring) landing on IR, and the former Packer has gone 3-for-4 on field-goal tries and 3-for-4 on extra-point attempts over the past two weeks.

The Giants elevated Crosby from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports. New York has dealt with a litany of kicker injuries this season, as Graham Gano (knee) and Randy Bullock (hamstring) are on IR and Cade York (quadriceps) is on the practice squad/injured list. Crosby was consequently signed to the team's practice squad Dec. 22 and was subsequently elevated for last Sunday's loss to Philadelphia, converting his lone field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries. The former Packer will get another opportunity to kick against the Rams in Week 17, and it seems likely that he'll do so in the Giants' season finale Jan. 7 versus Philadelphia as well.
