Kicker Graham Gano has been designated for return to practice. Coach Brian Daboll announced the news Wednesday afternoon as the Giants began on-field preparations for Sunday's game against the Panthers in Munich, Germany.
Gano, who hurt his hamstring attempting to make a tackle on the opening kickoff of the Giants' Week 2 game at Washington, has been on injured reserve since Sept. 17.
The Giants had subsequently signed veteran Greg Joseph and the veteran made 13 of 16 field goal attempts in six games with his new team. However, Joseph missed this past Sunday's game against the Commanders with an abdominal injury and was placed on injured reserve. That opened the door for Jude McAtamney to make his NFL debut at MetLife Stadium, where he kicked a 31-yard field goal and an extra point.
In addition to Gano, Daboll also announced that the Giants signed cornerback Art Green from the practice squad to the active roster, and punter Matt Haack, who was released on Tuesday, has re-signed to the practice squad. The team also signed center Bryan Hudson to the practice squad.
