Giants' Jamie Gillan: Pressed into emergency kicking duty
Gillan missed his lone extra-point attempt and punted twice for 87 yards in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders.
After Graham Gano suffered a hamstring injury while chasing down Commanders returner Austin Ekeler on the opening kickoff, Gillan, the Giants' punter, was called upon to replace Gano for both kickoffs and placekicking. Gillan was unable to convert on a point-after try following Devin Singletary's first-quarter touchdown, prompting the Giants to stay away from Gillan on any placekicking opportunities that emerged the rest of the day. According to Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post, head coach Brian Daboll said that Gano will be out for "a few weeks," but the Giants worked out four kickers Monday and will likely sign one or elevate Jude McAtamney from the practice squad to fill in for Gano in the team's Week 3 game in Cleveland.

Giants' Jamie Gillan: Tending to groin injury
Gillan was a limited participant at Thursday's practice due to a left groin injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Gillan sustained the injury at some point during this past Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Saints. In addition to punting five times for 238 yards in the loss, Gillan took over as the Giants' kickoff man and placekicker when Randy Bullock (hamstring) went down with an injury in the first quarter. Gillan proceeded to convert on his lone field-goal attempt (from 40 yards out), but he's expected to be limited exclusively to punting duties Monday in Philadelphia, provided he can overcome his groin injury. The Giants placed Bullock on injured reserve Thursday, but Cade York is expected to be elevated from the practice squad to serve as the team's kicker for the final three games of the season.
