Goes back to practice squad The Giants reverted Crosby to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact New York's season is over, but Crosby could potentially still see postseason action if another team were to sign him off the Giants' practice squad. The veteran kicker went 2-for-3 on field-goal tries and converted all three extra-point attempts in Sunday's win over Philadelphia. He finished the campaign having gone 5-for-7 on field-goal attempts and 6-for-7 on extra-point tries over three games.

Goes back to practice squad Crosby reverted to the Giants' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Crosby spent about a week on the Rams' practice squad in early December, but despite being elevated for a Week 14 matchup with the Ravens, L.A. opted to stick with Lucas Havrisik at placekicker. Meanwhile, in New York, the Giants churned through three kickers before inking Crosby to a practice-squad contract last Friday, namely Graham Gano (knee), Randy Bullock (hamstring) and Cade York (quadriceps). Crosby was elevated from the practice squad Sunday and then played Monday at Philadelphia, making his only field-goal attempt (52 yards) and both point-after tries. With two games to go for the Giants in the regular season and also two available elevations for Crosby, he'll likely handle kicking duties on both occasions.

Elevated to active roster The Giants elevated Crosby to the active roster Sunday.
Impact Mike reported Friday that Crosby is set to take over the kicking duties for Monday's game against the Eagles after Cade York was placed on the practice squad/injured list after sustaining a quadriceps injury during practice. York was brought in after Graham Gano (knee) and Randy Bullock (hamstring) were both placed on IR. Crosby hasn't had a chance to attempt a field goal this year, though he did spend some time on the Rams' practice squad before being cut by the team Dec. 12.

Kicking for Giants this week Crosby is signing with the Giants practice squad and will kick for the team Monday at Philadelphia, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Impact Kickers haven't been spared from the Giants' widespread injury issues this season, and they've now got Cade York heading to practice-squad injured reserve after suffering a leg injury during practice. That's in addition to Graham Gano (knee) and Randy Bullock (hamstring) already being on regular IR, with both set to miss the rest of the season. Crosby spent a few days with the Rams last week and now has a chance to serve as the Giants' placekicker for their final three games of the regular season. He's among the lesser fantasy options at the position for Week 16, playing outdoors for a double-digit underdog while acclimating to a new long-snapper and holder.

Works out with Rams The Rams worked out Crosby on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Impact The Rams released Brett Maher on Tuesday, so they're now in the market for a replacement at kicker. Crosby was unceremoniously replaced by Anders Carlson during the offseason after serving as Green Bay's kicker for 16 years, but he may soon get another chance with a different team.

Completes 16th season Crosby converted 25 of 29 field-goal tries, made 37 of his 39 extra-point attempts and scored 112 points over 17 games in the 2022 campaign.
Impact Crosby made just as many field goals as he did in 2021, but the Packers did not find the end zone as frequently as they did that season, and he finished with 12 fewer points than he put up the year before. He'll turn 39 in September and made just one kick from at least 50 yards away in 2022, but he remains a reliable option at the placekicker position. Crosby will be a free agent this offseason, so it remains to be seen if he'll return to Green Bay for a 17th season, head elsewhere or opt for retirement.

Drops double digits again Crosby made two field goals and five extra points in Sunday's 41-17 victory over the Vikings.
Impact Crosby reached double digits in the points column for both the second time all season and the second time is as many weeks, and thanks to a 56-yard field goal to close out the first half, he had another particularly productive day for those earning points based on field-goal distance. Crosby will close out the regular season against the Lions, a team that limited him to just three points in Week 9 and allowed opposing kickers to make just 10 field goals over its last seven games.
