The New York Giants announced Tuesday that they’ve signed veteran K Mike Nugent to a contract.
Nugent will get an opportunity to compete with Aldrick Rosas for the team’s kicker job this summer.
Nugent, 35, is a former second-round pick of the Jets back in 2005. He has spent the past six seasons with the Bengals but has really struggled this year.
Nugent was in the final year of his two-year, $3.5 million contract and set to make a base salary of $1.2 million for the 2016 season when the Bengals cut him loose in December of last year.
