Giants 12, Chiefs 9 (OT): Giants’ kicker Aldrick Rosas blows away doubts

Related Topics: Aldrick Rosas

New York Giants’ placekicker Aldrick Rosas has been having a miserable time the past few weeks. Entering Sunday, he was just 10-of-15 on field goals and had missed kicks in five straight games.

The day turned out to be a miserable one to be an NFL placekicker. Gusty winds between 20 and 30 miles per hour, sometimes gusting higher than that.

Rosas first kick, an extra point, got caught up in the wind, basically stopped, and flew off to the right of the uprights. No good. To add to his previous struggles, that was his first missed extra point of the year.
