Who Should I Start? Graham Gano or Chad Ryland

Wednesday, November 12, 5:43 PM

The New York Giants placed kicker Graham Gano (neck) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday due to the neck injury that he's been dealing with, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It's the second time that Gano has been on IR this year, so his season will come to an end after only five games played in 2025. The 38-year-old veteran kicker went 9-for-10 on his field-goal attempts (he made his only 50-yard attempt) and 9-for-9 on extra points. The G-Men explored using Jude McAtamney for a short bit with Gano injured this year, but that didn't work out, and they are set to continue with former Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo in their Week 11 contest this Sunday against the visiting Green Bay Packers. In last week's loss to the Bears, Koo made both of his field goals and both of his extra points. He shouldn't be on the streaming radar in fantasy this week, though, with quarterback Jameis Winston taking over for the injured Jaxson Dart (concussion).

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland has been a sneaky solid option over the last few weeks. In fact, Ryland hasn't missed a kick since missing a 57-yard try against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 3. The 26-year-old has made five kicks in each of his last three games. Ryland is flying under the radar right now, but has been one of the more consistent kickers in the league this season. He's not a top option at his position, but is well worth a look as a streaming option for fantasy managers seeking a kicker for Week 10.
