Would the New York Giants really trust their 2017 placekicking job to a kid from the NAIA who has never kicked in an NFL regular season game? That remains to be seen, but right now 22-year-old Aldrick Rosas looks like he has a good chance to make that unlikely scenario become a reality.
Rosas is the only placekicker on the Giants’ roster, and has been ever since the team signed him to a reserve/futures contract.
“Aldrick has done well. He's really progressed from when we first put hands on him and started working with him,” special teams coordinator Tom Quinn said during the team’s mandatory mini-camp.
