Summary
- Rookie kicker Dominic Zvada has made all extra points and field goals.
- Zvada's 52-yard field goal ranks third-longest for a Giants rookie.
- Coach praises Zvada's confidence and consistency.
New York Giants assistant head coach Chris Horton has expressed strong confidence in rookie kicker Dominic Zvada, who has quickly made an impression in his first two games. Zvada has successfully converted all four extra-point attempts and both of his field goal attempts.
One of his notable kicks was a 52-yard field goal during the Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Rams, which stands as the third-longest kick by a rookie in the team's history. Horton highlighted Zvada's belief in himself and his ability to perform under pressure.
Zvada joined the Giants as an undrafted free agent in late April after a successful college career at Michigan. Having won a training camp competition, he was named the team's kicker in late August. Horton emphasized the importance of Zvada's continued consistency, both in practice and games, to solidify his performance and belonging with the team.
