Graham Gano News
Sunday, March 29, 5:41 PM
The New York Giants are releasing kicker Graham Gano (neck) on Sunday, sources told Connor Hughes of SNY. Gano will hit the open market after kicking in just six games for the Giants in 2025 due to groin and neck injuries. When the 38-year-old veteran was available, he made nine of his 10 field-goal tries (1-for-1 from 50-plus yards) and was a perfect 9-of-9 on his extra points. He will now hit the open market after being with the G-Men for each of the last six seasons. Before that, he spent three years in Washington and another seven with the Carolina Panthers. With the move, the Giants will save $4.5 million in salary cap space in 2026. Former Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is now in line to serve as New York's primary placekicker next year with Gano gone. In his 16-year career, Gano has made 83.8% of his field-goal tries, including going 46-for-67 from 50-plus yards. It's possible that Gano will consider hanging up his cleats as he nears 40 years old.

Younghoe Koo News
Wednesday, May 27, 7:15 PM
The New York Jets signed free-agent kicker Younghoe Koo to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, sources told Connor Hughes of SNY. Koo spent seven years with the Atlanta Falcons, where he was named a Pro Bowler in 2020. The 31-year-old veteran kicked with the Falcons and New York Giants in 2025 and went 6-for-9 on his field-goal attempts and 13-for-14 on extra-point tries in only six games played. Going into his ninth year in the NFL with Gang Green, Koo will be competing with Cade York and Lenny Krieg for primary placekicking duties in 2026. Even if he wins the gig to start the 2026 regular season, fantasy managers should have much better options at the kicking position. For his career, Koo has an 85.3% success rate on his 217 field-goal attempts (29-for-42 from 50-plus yards) and has made 95.9% of his extra-point attempts in 98 career games.
