Giants Sign Kicker David Buehler: The Giants announced yesterday that they have signed street free agent PK David Buehler. Buehler has spent time with the Dallas Cowboys (2009-2011), principally as a kickoff specialist though he did also handle field goals in 2010. The Cowboys waived him in March 2012.
PK Lawrence Tynes will soon be an unrestricted free agent. The Giants also signed PK/P Jake Rogers earlier this offseason.
Because of this move, we have updated the Transactions, Free Agent Signings (with scouting report), Free Agent Scorecard, and Roster sections of the website.
