Who Should I Start? Graham Gano or Chad Ryland

Saturday, September 27, 6:37 PM

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (groin) was placed on the injured reserve on Saturday. Gano suffered a groin injury during last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. As a result, Gano will miss at least the next four games. Jude McAtamney was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. McAtamney appears to be in line to get the first chance at the kicking job in New York. The Giants also have Younghoe Koo, but it appears McAtamney won that competition. Fantasy managers should probably look elsewhere for a kicking option for Week 4. This Giants offense hasn't been good enough to give their kickers many chances early in the season.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland has connected on eight of 10 field goal attempts and all eight of his extra-point tries through his first four games of 2025. Both he and the Cardinals should have plenty of opportunities to put points on the board in Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans, who are allowing an average of 30 points per game so far this season. Ryland also has the benefit of playing this week at home in Arizona, eliminating any weather concerns from the equation. The 25-year-old profiles as a low-end starting fantasy kicker option in Week 5 against Tennessee.
