• Giants' Graham Gano: Could be nearing return

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Gano (hamstring) appears to be close to returning from injured reserve, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. The report is somewhat vague, as Raanan doesn't specifically note if Gano will be ready to resume practicing next week. Gano was placed on injured reserve Sept. 17 with a right hamstring strain, and the Giants have yet to open his 21-day evaluation window even though he'll be missing his seventh straight game Sunday against the Commanders. Greg Joseph had been serving as Gano's replacement, but after Joseph landed on injured reserve Saturday with an abdominal injury, the Giants signed Jude McAtamney off their practice squad to handle Week 9 kicking duties. Unless Gano starts practicing during the upcoming week, McAtamney could remain the Giants' kicker for their Nov. 10 matchup with the Panthers as well.

• Giants' Graham Gano: Won't return Week 7

  20D ago • By RotoWire

  Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that Gano (hamstring) won't be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. Gano has missed the required four games, but the veteran placekicker has not yet made enough progress in his recovery from his right hamstring injury to resume practicing. Greg Joseph should once again serve as the Giants' kicker Sunday, despite the fact that he missed both his field-goal tries during New York's loss to the Bengals in Week 6.

• Giants' Graham Gano: Week 7 return uncertain

  22D ago • By RotoWire

  Giants coach Brian Daboll said Monday that he'll know Wednesday whether Gano (hamstring) will be able to come off IR this week, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports. Gano has been out the required four games after landing on injured reserve Sept. 17, but it's not certain that the veteran kicker will be ready to return this Sunday versus Philadelphia. Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports that Gano hasn't done much on the side while on IR, and he believes it'd be surprising if he suits up Week 7, but Daboll's comments leave open that possibility nonetheless. Daboll also indicated Monday that Greg Joseph -- who missed both his field-goal attempts Sunday in a loss to the Bengals -- probably will continue to kick for the team if Gano isn't back against the Eagles this weekend.

• Giants' Graham Gano: Heads to IR

  09/17/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Giants placed Gano (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Gano's move to IR ensures that he'll miss at least the next four games while he recovers from the right hamstring strain he sustained during the opening kickoff of this past Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders. The Giants replaced Gano on the 53-man roster with Greg Joseph, who was signed off the Lions' practice squad and will take over as New York's kicker beginning with this Sunday's game in Cleveland.

• Giants' Graham Gano: Set for multi-week absence

  09/16/2024 • By RotoWire

  Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Gano (hamstring) will miss a "few weeks" due to the hamstring injury he sustained in Sunday's 21-18 loss to Washington, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Gano sounds like he'll miss at least Week 3 against the Browns, and the Giants then have a quick turnaround before taking on the Cowboys in a Thursday night game Sept. 26. In the meantime, New York could turn to kicker Jude McAtamney, who currently resides on the practice squad, though Daboll said the team also will host tryouts at the position.
