Overview
- McAtamney missed two extra points in the 33-32 loss at Denver, including a wide-right try with 37 seconds left that kept the lead at two and set up Wil Lutz’s game-winning 39-yarder.
- The Giants waived the second-year kicker on Tuesday; McAtamney told reporters, “Gotta make the kicks… I’ll take full responsibility.”
- Head coach Brian Daboll said the team will evaluate the position this week, with Graham Gano eligible to come off IR and Younghoe Koo on the practice squad.
- Concerns over range and reliability affected game management, as New York went for a two-point try after an earlier miss and passed on longer field-goal attempts.
- McAtamney finished his four-game stint 9-for-12 on extra points and 2-for-2 on field goals with a long of 31 yards, and Adam Schefter noted the rarity of two unblocked PAT misses in a one-point loss over the past 40 years.
