New York Giants placekicker Graham Gano has been named the NFC Special Teams Player of The Week for his work securing the Giants’ 19-16 victory over the Carolina Panthers.
This comes a week after Saquon Barkley was named the NFC Offensive Player of The Week.
Gano provided most of the Giants’ offensive production against the Panthers, hitting four field goals and an extra point, accounting for 13 of the Giants’ 19 points. The highlight of the day was Gano’s 56-yard field goal to give the Giants the three-point lead they wouldn’t relinquish. That 56-yarder is the longest of his career as a Giant.
