Jude McAtamney paid the price for his two missed PATs in the Giants’ historic loss.
McAtamney was ruled out Tuesday, as first reported by The Post, as the Giants plan to move forward by either elevating Younghoe Koo from the practice squad or activating Graham Gano from injured reserve.
The Giants also gave up 33 points in the fourth quarter, but head coach Brian Daboll isn’t making any changes to his coaching staff. It remains to be seen if the defensive depth chart will be changed.
McAtamney, who made the Giants in 2024 on an international roster exemption, missed three PATs in the last two games. He beat out Koo — an NFL veteran cut by the Falcons earlier this year — for the job after Gano was injured.
Gano kicked off Tuesday for the Giants today so the team can determine if he’s ready to return, the Post’s Paul Schwartz reported.
It remains to be seen whether McAtamney will return to the practice squad, where his spot would not count toward the maximum.

The Giants also re-signed cornerback Korie Black to their 53-man roster from the Jets’ practice squad. Black, a 2025 seventh-round pick of the Giants, opted to sign with the Jets’ practice squad following the same offer from the Giants in September.
Defensive tackle Elijah Garcia took linebacker Jonas Griffith’s spot on the practice squad.
