When it comes to the kicking game, special teams coordinator Tom Quinn said the Giants are about 66 percent set.

“We have a guy that’s a good snapper and a good holder,” he said of veterans Zak DeOssie and Brad Wing, respectively. “Now, we just have to find a kicker.”

Aldrick Rosas may wind up being that guy. Although he has never played in the NFL and didn’t even play in the NCAA (he was at Southern Oregon University in the NAIA), he’s been the only kicker on the team’s roster for the last few months. Signed to a reserve/future contract in January, the Giants seem to be grooming him to possibly be the Week 1 kicker in 2017.
