In this story:

The New York Giants have added kicker Graham Gano to their Week 2 injury report ahead of their game Sunday against the Washington Commanders.

Gano developed a groin issue, supposedly on Saturday during the team's walkthrough practice held before they boarded the train for Washington. The 37-year-old kicker did not receive an injury status for the game, meaning he will be available to kick.

Still, this situation bears watching as last year, when Gano developed a knee issue that ultimately required season-ending surgery, he attempted to kick in the team's regular-season game against the Jets only to have his struggles.
