The New York Giants prepare for a kicking battle this summer between Ben Sauls and Dominic Zvada. Sauls, who joined the Giants last November, made three of four field-goal attempts last season. Zvada, an undrafted free agent with a stronger leg, aims to secure the job after a solid college career. Both kickers will be evaluated through practices and preseason games, with the more accurate kicker likely to win the job as the team transitions under new head coach John Harbaugh.
