Overview
- Graham Gano said he has a herniated disc pressing on his spinal cord, received a spinal injection, and has not practiced this week as his status for Sunday remains uncertain.
- Head coach Brian Daboll said the team will get Younghoe Koo ready and that Koo will handle kicks if Gano cannot play.
- The Giants worked out free agent Ben Sauls as an additional contingency while Koo sits atop the practice-squad depth chart ahead of Jude McAtamney.
- Jude McAtamney previously filled in during Gano’s IR stint and missed three PATs, including two in a 33-32 loss to Denver, prompting the team to reassess its options.
- Gano described receiving death threats and abusive messages from fans and bettors for years, with team and NFL security tracking the most serious incidents.
