Fairbairn made two of four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the Jets in Week 9. Fairbairn misfired from 56 yards near the end of the first half and later hit the upright on a 27-yard attempt. It's rare he has two misses in a game, particularly when one is a chip shot inside the 30. His makes were from 54 and 29 yards. While the misses altered the trajectory of the game, this loss was more on the offense than the kicker.

Fairbairn converted all three field-goal attempts and both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts in Week 8. Rinse and repeat for Fairbairn, who recorded double-digit scoring for a fourth straight week and the sixth time in eight contests. The Texans had issues finishing drives in the red zone and settled for field goals on three of them. Fairbairn is averaging 9.3 points per game and has been successful on an impressive nine of 10 kicks from the 50 and beyond.

Fairbairn converted two of three field goals and all five extra-point kicks in Sunday's 41-21 win over New England in Week 6.

It was the second straight week with 11 points for Fairbairn, who has four double-digit efforts through six games in 2024. He currently ranks fifth among kickers with 53 points.

Fairbairn converted all three field-goal attempts and two extra-point kicks in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Bills in Week 5. Fairbairn drilled a 59-yarder as time expired to give Houston the win. He had earlier booted a 50-yarder and is now 8-of-9 from the 50 and beyond. This was the third time in five games he's posted double-digit points, and the eight-year veteran is averaging 8.4 points per game. The decision to give Fairbairn a three-year contract in the offseason was a wise one; his leg has been integral in two of Houston's four wins.

Fairbairn successfully converted his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 24-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 4. Houston has been good at finishing drives once it's inside the red zone, but Fairbairn was needed Sunday to drill a 30-yard chip shot. It was his first FGA inside the 40 yard-line. After going for double-digit points the first two weeks, Fairbairn has been held to seven points the last two games.
