Who Should I Start? Graham Gano or Jake Elliott

Wednesday, November 5, 9:44 PM

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (neck) was unable to take the field for Wednesday's practice session. It appears Gano is managing a neck injury after missing four games earlier in the season due to a groin issue. When healthy, Gano has been a viable option for the Giants, but keeping him healthy has been a problem. The Giants have both Younghoe Koo and Jude McAtamney on their practice squad right now. One of them would get the starting gig if Gano is forced to miss time. He'll have a few days to get ready ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Chicago Bears.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott had his first missed field goal of the season against the Vikings as a 42-yard attempt sailed wide right in the fourth quarter. He did, however, make all four of his extra points. As it stands, Elliott is already an unreliable fantasy kicker with his lack of attempts, and he's even more unappealing if he starts missing. The Eagles will host the Giants in Week 8, and New York allows 25.3 points per game-10th-most in the league. But even with a below-average defense, Elliott has not shown that he's start-worthy in fantasy.
