Robbie Gould to join Giants with Josh Brown left at home

Former Chicago Bears kicker Robbie Gould was on a flight Thursday night to London to join the New York Giants, who left embattled kicker Josh Brown at home, a person with knowledge of the situation told Paste BN Sports.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Giants hadn't announced the deal.

Gould, 34, has been a free agent since the Bears cut him last month. He's made 85.4% of his field-goal attempts over 11 NFL seasons.
