Summary

Kicker Rank: #14   
Overall: #278


Tynes never seems to have the complete confidence of his coach, but he continues to kick well for the Giants. He has made at least 83 percent of his field goals since joining the Giants in 2007. His point total last season (100) was his lowest as a starter since becoming a Giant, but he has averaged 112 points per season as a full-time starter in New York. Tynes will struggle at times with accuracy, but has improved in that area through the years. He has a strong leg and plays in a good Giants' offense.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Tynes has potential in a very good offense. He always seems on a short leash, but keeps preserving as starter for the Giants. He is an upper echelon option as long as he is the Giants' starting kicker. His numbers don't lie. A full season should produce around 115 points.

Notes

New York Giants PK Lawrence Tynes, who is the only kicking in NFL history with two postseason overtime field goals, thinks about kicking the game-winner in Super Bowl XLVI. 'You think about it,' Tynes said. 'We're at this game. It would only be right if I think about it. Of course, a lot of things would have to happen for that to come true, but you have to be ready.'
