Ben Sauls News

Ben Sauls signed to the Giants Practice Squad

Tuesday, November 11, 9:27 AM

Free agent kicker Ben Sauls is signing with the New York Giants' practice squad this Tuesday. The Giants have had issues at kicker with Graham Gano suffering a neck injury that kept him out of the Week 10. Gano also spent time on injured reserve with a groin injury earlier this year. Last week, Younghoe Koo made both of his field goal and extra point attempts. Sauls had a strong college career at Pitt, making 81.3% of field goal attempts (52-of-64) and 98.4% of his extra points (122-of-124). The addition of Sauls gives the Giants three kickers on their practice squad, with Sauls, Koo, and Jude McAtamney as candidates to be promoted for Sunday's game if Gano is out.

Ryan Fitzgerald News

Ryan Fitzgerald is A Viable Deep Kicker Option for Week 10

Saturday, November 8, 1:34 AM

Ryan Fitzgerald is a viable fill-in option if a deeper one is needed for Week 10. In last week's game against the Green Bay Packers, the Carolina kicker nailed his only field goal attempt and was 1-for-2 on extra point attempts. The rookie kicker has recorded an average of 7.2 fantasy points this season while hitting all of his field goal attempts in four of the last five weeks. Over the last four weeks, the Saints have allowed 10 points per game to the kicker position, which ranks 28th of all teams. New Orleans has also given up an average of 27 points to opposing teams, which is tied for 24th-most in the league this season. The matchup appears to be favorable for Fitzgerald, and while he is ranked just 18th at kicker by RotoBaller for Week 10, he could provide adequate fantasy totals.
