McAtamney promoted to kicker for Giants in game against Chargers
The New York Giants have a new kicker, Jude McAtamney, who won a kicking competition against veteran Younghoe Koo. This comes after veteran kicker Graham Gano was placed on injured reserve due to a groin injury. The Giants were without a kicker for most of their last game, relying on punter Jamie Gillan and a injured Gano. Koo, who struggled with the Falcons, was signed to the practice squad but lost the competition to McAtamney. McAtamney, originally from Northern Ireland, played collegiately at Rutgers and was an International Pathway Player with the Giants. In addition to McAtamney, linebacker Neville Hewitt was elevated and two defensive players were signed to the active roster.
