Who Should I Start? Graham Gano or Parker Romo

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.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Parker Romo is an option for fantasy managers in Week 8's matchup with the Dolphins on Sunday. The 28-year-old is just 4-for-7 over the last four games after a 5-for-5 performance against the Vikings in Week 2, although his three misses were from 49 yards, 55 yards, and one was blocked. Romo draws a favorable matchup in Week 8, as the Falcons are favored by more than a touchdown with an implied point total of 26. It is also a home game, so there will be no weather to contend with. Additionally, Miami has yielded the third-most fantasy points to opposing kickers and is allowing over 29 points per game this season, so chalk Romo up as a viable kicking option for Sunday's contest, although he ranks just outside the top 12.
