The New York Giants are moving on from kicker Aldrick Rosas, and they have already found a replacement.
Veteran kicker Chandler Catanzaro has agreed to a one-year deal with the Giants, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
Giants are signing former Jets’ kicker Chandler Catanzaro to a one-year deal, per league source. He retired last August and was released from the Jets’ reserve/left squad list just last week. With the Giants releasing Aldrick Rosas today, Catanzaro steps in.

Catanzaro, 29, announced his retirement prior to last season. He was recently released from the reserved/left squad list with the New York Jets, which made him free to sign with any team. Catanzaro has not kicked in an NFL game since 2018. He has converted 83.8 percent of his field goal attempts and 92.9 percent of his extra points in his career.
The Giants are releasing Rosas in the wake of an alleged hit-and-run the 25-year-old was involved in last month. He is facing three misdemeanor charges from the incident.
