2026 Projections
Signed a contract with the Giants in December of 2025.
Emerges as reliable option as rookie
Sauls made all four of his field-goal tries and both of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-17 Week 18 win over Dallas. He finished the campaign having gone 8-for-8 of FG attempts and 7-for-7 on PAT tries.
ANALYSIS
Sauls was initially signed by Pittsburgh as an undrafted free agent and also spent time with Atlanta before latching on with the Giants in mid-November. When veteran kicker Graham Gano (neck) landed on IR around the same time, New York first turned to Younghoe Koo, but Sauls eventually got his chance after Koo was cut in mid-December. In his three contests to close the campaign, Sauls didn't miss a kick, though it has to be noted that only one of his FG tries -- a successful 45-yarder to open the scoring this past Sunday -- came from 40 or more yards out. Still, Sauls did nothing to suggest he can't be a reliable NFL kicker, and he could begin next season in that role for the Giants if the team decides to part ways with the oft-injured Gano.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Struggles in OTAs
Sauls went 4-for-10 on field-goal attempts during Wednesday's OTA practice despite favorable weather conditions, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sauls made his NFL debut in Week 16 of the 2025 regular season and proceeded to connect on all eight of his field-goal attempts and all seven of his extra-point tries across the Giants' final three games. The Giants showed their commitment by cutting Jason Sanders on Tuesday, but Sauls' performance a day later in OTAs could have the team second guessing its decision. Dominic Zvada is the other kicker on the 90-man roster and went 5-for-5 on kicks in rookie minicamp, but the starting job still belongs to Saul unless his struggles extend into training camp.
