The Giants decided not to punt on Jamie Gillan.

Two days before the start of free agency, the Giants re-signed their veteran punter, The Post confirmed.

It’s a three-year contract worth up to $10.2 million with incentives, according to NFL Network.

The exact structure of Gillan’s deal is not known, but it ranks as the seventh-highest among NFL punters in terms of max value.

It includes $4 million guaranteed, per ESPN.

Gillan, also known as “The Scottish Hammer,” is 27 years old and has been the punter during the tenure of Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll. He initially joined the Bills’ practice squad while both decision-makers were in Buffalo.

He averaged a career-low 43.7 yards per punt, but with a career-best 48.2 percent of his boots inside the 20-yard line last season.

Before his latest deal, Gillan had a two-year contract worth $4 million which he signed after the 2022 season. The Giants opted to maintain the existing chemistry in their kicking unit.

It appears the Giants are set to run it back for a fourth season with the same three core special-teamers.

Meanwhile, long snapper Casey Kreiter agreed to a one-year contract extension recently, and despite talks that he might be let go to free up $3.6 million in salary cap space due to a decline in his performance in the past two seasons, kicker Graham Gano is still part of the team.

Gillan doubles as the holder for Gano.

Other top punters who are scheduled to hit the market when free agency begins Monday include the Commanders’ Tress Way, Cowboys’ Brian Anger, Panthers’ Johnny Hekker, Chargers’ JK Scott and Bills’ Sam Martin.
