Giants Sign Greg Joseph After Graham Gano's Hamstring Injury

The New York Giants placed veteran kicker Graham Gano on injured reserve and signed Greg Joseph from the Detroit Lions' practice squad.

Gano injured his hamstring during the opening kickoff in the Giants' 21-18 loss to the Washington Commanders.
Punter Jamie Gillan missed an extra point and the Giants failed on two 2-point conversions, contributing to their loss.
Greg Joseph, a seven-year NFL veteran, holds the NFL record for game-winning kicks in a season and the Vikings' record for longest field goal at 61 yards.
Joseph was signed from the Lions' practice squad after the Giants held tryouts for four other veteran kickers.
The Giants also claimed linebacker Patrick Johnson off waivers from the Philadelphia Eagles to bolster their roster.
