Gano is slated to undergo surgery on his left knee and be placed on injured reserve, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network and Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News report.

For a third week in a row, Gano is dealing with a knee injury, which may have been the reason he made just one of four field-goal attempts the last two games. He told Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record last week that he likely required surgery but hoped to wait until the end of the season before doing so. Now, though, Gano will miss at least four games once the move to IR goes through. The Giants held tryouts for four kickers Thursday, and Randy Bullock will emerge from it with a practice-squad contract, pending a physical, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

The Giants are in line to sign Bullock to their practice squad Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The Giants worked out a number of veteran kickers Thursday and ultimately settled on bringing Bullock on board. Though Bullock will stick on the practice squad for now, he could be a candidate to get elevated to the 53-man roster for Sunday's game against the Raiders. Graham Gano is the Giants' lone kicker on the roster at the moment, but he's been contending with a knee injury on his plant leg and is coming off a rough showing in the team's 13-10 overtime loss to the Jets in Week 8 in which he missed field-goal attempts from 35 and 47 yards out. If Gano isn't deemed healthy enough to kick this weekend, Bullock would be his obvious replacement.

Gano (knee) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Gano is tending to a left knee injury for a third consecutive week, which may be partly the reason the Giants held tryouts for four kickers Thursday. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Giants ultimately chose to sign Randy Bullock to their practice squad, leaving him as the next man up to handle kicking duties if Gano needs to miss time due to the injury to his plant leg. Gano has one more opportunity to practice this week and prove his health, but if the team has any questions about his availability ahead of Sunday's game at Las Vegas, Bullock will be elevated to the 53-man roster.

Carlson (groin) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report.

Carlson was listed as questionable after logging one limited practice session ahead of Monday's game against the Lions. Concern about Carlson's status prompted Las Vegas to add James McCourt to their practice squad and elevate him to the active roster Monday, but he was ultimately inactive after Carlson got the green light to play. He converted both of his extra-point attempts in the Raiders' 26-14 loss, showing no visible signs of a setback. That said, until Carlson practices fully, his status will be worth tracking ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.

Gano (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Gano played through the issue in the knee of his plant leg this past Sunday but struggled in a 13-10 overtime loss to the Jets, missing two of his three field-goal attempts. The Giants appear content to allow Gano to continue kicking even though he's presumably less than 100 percent healthy, but if his accuracy remains an issue in future contest, a stint on injured reserve could be in the forecast.

Pineiro made all three of his field-goal attempts but missed his only extra-point try in Sunday's 15-13 win over the Texans.

Pineiro converted from 46 and 37 yards prior to making a 23-yarder as time expired. With his last kick clinching Carolina's first win of the season, Pineiro compensated for missing a PAT earlier on Sunday. Through seven games, he now sports 47 points.

Carlson converted both of his extra-point attempts in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.

Carlson was able to play through the groin injury that impacted his practice availability earlier in the week, but he ultimately wasn't given the chance to attempt a field goal on Monday Night Football. The 3-5 Raiders now head back home for a Week 9 matchup against the Giants.

Patterson converted four of five field-goal attempts and both of his PATs during Monday's 26-14 win over the Raiders.

After giving fantasy managers nothing last week, Patterson saw as many field goal attempts as he had the previous four weeks. He ultimately nailed a quartet of kicks ranging from 31 to 52 yards only to miss his final attempt from 26 yards out. While Patterson didn't maximize his output, it was nice to see his upside as a fantasy asset within a productive Lions offense. He will look to stay productive once Detroit returns from a Week 9 bye to take on a weak Chargers defense.

Sanders converted his only field-goal attempt and all four extra-point tries during Sunday's 31-17 win over New England.

Sanders didn't need to do much during Miami's divisional Week 8 win, but he did put together his sixth consecutive game without a missed kick. He could be presented with more scoring opportunities when the Dolphins take on the Chiefs in Germany in Week 9.

Prater connected on his only field-goal attempt and sole point-after try during Sunday's 31-24 defeat to the Ravens.

Despite the close margin of victory, the Cardinals were down 21-7 entering the fourth quarter and went for two after both of their touchdowns down the stretch, limiting Prater's chances. He thus matched his third-lowest point total (four) in eight games on the campaign, which pushed his scoring average from 6.7 to 6.4 points per game. Prater may have a tough time producing Sunday against a Browns team that has conceded the fourth-fewest FGAs (11) to opponents in seven contests this season.
