McAtamney reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. With two Giants place kickers on injured reserve, McAtamney got the call Sunday against the Commanders, connecting on his only field-goal attempt from 31 yards and his sole point-after try. Greg Joseph (abdomen) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, but Graham Gano (hamstring) is a candidate to return to action at any point. If Gano is designated for return this week, McAtamney's time as the team's kicker may be contained to one game. Until that happens, though, McAtamney could get another chance this coming Sunday at Carolina.

Heads back to practice squad
McAtamney reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. With two Giants place kickers on injured reserve, McAtamney got the call Sunday against the Commanders, connecting on his only field-goal attempt from 31 yards and his sole point-after try. Greg Joseph (abdomen) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, but Graham Gano (hamstring) is a candidate to return to action at any point. If Gano is designated for return this week, McAtamney's time as the team's kicker may be contained to one game. Until that happens, though, McAtamney could get another chance this coming Sunday at Carolina.
Elevated from practice squad
The Giants elevated McAtamney from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. McAtamney will be the Giants' kicker Sunday against the Commanders due to Greg Joseph (abdomen) being placed on injured reserve Saturday. Graham Gano (hamstring) is nearing a return from IR, so McAtamney could be the Giants' kicker for just one game. Sunday will be McAtamney's NFL regular-season debut.
Starting in Week 9
McAtamney is expected to serve as the Giants' top kicker in Sunday's matchup against the Commanders, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. The Giants announced Friday that Greg Joseph (oblique) won't suit up in Week 9, giving McAtamney the opportunity to start Sunday. McAtamney must still be elevated from the Giants' practice squad to active roster in order to start in Week 9. He could be in for plenty of scoring opportunities, as the Giants have attempted 10 field goals across their last four games.
Back with New York
McAtamney signed with the Giants' practice squad Wednesday, Michael Eisen of the team's official site reports. The kicker was waived by the Giants on Tuesday. McAtamney joined New York through the International Pathway Player Program in May but failed to unseat incumbent kicker Graham Gano.
