Giants Sign Punter Matt Haack After Injury

The New York Giants are facing a special teams dilemma as starting punter Jamie Gillan is listed as questionable for their upcoming game against the Cincinnati Bengals due to a left hamstring strain. In response, the team held a tryout for several veteran punters and ultimately signed Matt Haack, who is expected to make his 100th career appearance on Sunday. Haack, a seven-year journeyman in the NFL, has averaged 39.6 yards per punt and has a 37% rate of landing punts inside the 20-yard line. This decision comes after the Giants suffered a special teams setback earlier in the season, highlighting the importance of roster management. The team is hoping for a strong performance as they seek to improve their 2-3 record against a struggling Bengals team.
