The Giants waived Santoso on Monday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso was signed by the Giants ahead of the team's final preseason game to serve as an emergency placekicker while Graham Gano was in concussion protocol. Santoso's release suggests Gano will be fully healthy by Week 1.

The Giants signed Santoso on Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso was in line to be the Jaguars' No. 1 place kicker after the team waived Elliott Fry (undisclosed) with an injury designation, but he was quickly replaced in Jacksonville by newcomer James McCourt. Graham Gano (concussion) is unlikely to play in the Giants' preseason finale against the Jets on Sunday, so Santoso was likely brought in as an emergency option until Gano is cleared for action, which is expected to be sometime before the regular season.

The Jaguars waived Santoso on Tuesday, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso was slated to be the Jaguars' No. 1 place picker after the team waived Elliott Fry (undisclosed) with an injury designation. However, it appears the job is now wide open as Jacksonville currently has zero place kickers on their roster, though that'll likely change quickly. Santoso made four appearances last year -- three with Detroit and one with Carolina -- and went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts but just 6-for-8 on extra-point tries. However, the soon-to-be 27 year-old will have to look for a new NFL opportunity heading into the 2022 campaign.

Santoso is in line to be the Jaguars' top place kicker after the team waived Elliott Fry (undisclosed) with an injury designation Monday, John Shipley of Sports Illustrated reports.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso is the lone kicker remaining on the Jaguars depth chart after the team waived Andrew Mevis at the end of July and Fry on Monday. Santoso made four appearances last year -- three with Detroit and one with Carolina -- and went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts but 6-for-8 on extra-point tries. It's likely Jacksonville brings in more competition for Santoso before the start of the regular season, but for now, he appears to be the Week 1 starter.

Santoso will compete with Andrew Mevis in training camp for Jacksonville's kicking job, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso appeared to be brought in as competition for Matthew Wright when he signed with the Jaguars in late March, but Wright has since been cut after kicking in 14 games last year. Santoso appeared in four games between the Lions and Panthers in 2021 and went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 6-for-8 on PATs.

The Jaguars have signed Santoso.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso saw action for both the Panthers and Lions last season before winding up on the Rams' practice squad. With the Jaguars, the 26-year-old has an opportunity to compete with Matthew Wright for the team's placekicking job this coming season.

The Rams signed Santoso to their practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso has been signed and released from the Rams' practice squad several times across the last few weeks, and he'll now rejoin the team as an insurance option ahead of Super Bowl LVI. Assuming Matt Gay remains healthy for Sunday's matchup, it's unlikely that Santoso will be elevated from the practice squad.

Santoso was cut from the Rams' practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Santoso continues to bounce on-and-off the Rams' practice squad as insurance in the event Matt Gay suddenly is unavailable. He'll likely rejoin the practice squad again ahead of the Super Bowl.

The Rams signed Santoso to the practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
After joining L.A.'s practice squad five different times since Dec. 18, Santoso was cut loose a few days later on each occasion. This is merely a move made as insurance in the event Matt Gay suddenly is unavailable for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.

Santoso was cut from the Rams' practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The kicker's pattern of being cut and re-signed by the Rams continued Tuesday as he was once again let go. Santoso will likely return to the team ahead of Sunday's championship-round matchup against the 49ers.
