Kicker Graham Gano

Graham Gano was a very deserving candidate to make the 2021 Pro Bowl. After sitting out the 2019 season, Gano has had a resurgent season and given the Giants their most consistent kicking option years.

Gano has been money all season, nailing 28 of 29 field goals good enough for the second-highest field goal percentage in the NFL. He’s missed one extra point all year and other than that, he’s been practically perfect from the mark all year. Gano’s lone field goal miss came Week 2 in the Windy City of Chicago.

Gano has hit every field goal in every game since and hasn’t looked back. He’s been solid on kickoffs all year and has been a calming veteran presence on the Giants’ special teams.
