Staying with Giants The Giants signed McAtamney to a reserve/future contract Monday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact McAtamney signed with the Giants in May of 2024 and was assigned to the exempt/international roster spot. He didn't make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he was retained on the practice squad and ended up being elevated for Week 9 against the Commanders due to abdominal and hamstring injuries to Greg Joseph and Graham Gano, respectively. McAtamney made a 31-yard field goal and his lone extra-point try in his only outing of the regular season, and he'll have the opportunity to earn the Giants' starting kicking job for 2025.

Heads back to practice squad McAtamney reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact With two Giants place kickers on injured reserve, McAtamney got the call Sunday against the Commanders, connecting on his only field-goal attempt from 31 yards and his sole point-after try. Greg Joseph (abdomen) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, but Graham Gano (hamstring) is a candidate to return to action at any point. If Gano is designated for return this week, McAtamney's time as the team's kicker may be contained to one game. Until that happens, though, McAtamney could get another chance this coming Sunday at Carolina.

McAtamney must still be elevated from the Giants' practice squad to active roster in order to start in Week 9.
