New York Giants punter Jamie Gillan will be back in the United States on Wednesday after being stranded in London over a passport issue, NFL Network reported.
The Giants faced the Green Bay Packers in London on Sunday, winning 27-22. And when they departed, they left without Gillan.
A native of Scotland, the 25-year-old Gillan came to the United States with his father on a NATO visa, moving to Maryland in 2013 when his father was stationed there as a member of the Royal Air Force. His visa never was updated to a work visa, apparently.
Gillan is in his first season with the Giants after three with the Cleveland Browns. On the season, he has punted 21 times for 1,070 yards — an average of 51.0, good for fourth in the NFL.
The Giants (4-1) host the Baltimore Ravens (3-2) on Sunday.
