Gano, Rackers battling to be Redskins kicker

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - One of four preseason games down and the Washington Redskins are no closer to resolving their kicker competition.

That's because neither 25-year-old incumbent Graham Gano nor challenger Neil Rackers, who'll be 35 next week, attempted a field goal during Thursday's 7-6 victory at Buffalo. Gano kicked the game's only extra point. Each kicked off once.

The next chance for Gano and Rackers, who have each made 16 of 19 attempts in practice, to hit a kick when it counts comes Saturday at Chicago.
