Giants placekicking competition heats up at minicamp with Sauls and Zvada

At the New York Giants minicamp, Ben Sauls and Dominic Zvada are competing for the team's placekicking job. The Giants began with veteran Jason Sanders and two younger kickers before releasing Sanders, who struggled to adapt after a hip injury. Sauls, who went 8 of 8 on field goal attempts in his final three games last season, has had an inconsistent performance in OTAs, making just 6 of 12 attempts. Zvada's progression remains unclear, as he has not kicked during media-accessed practice sessions. The competition will continue throughout the summer as the Giants evaluate their options.
