Dolphins' Andrew Franks: Hits 56-yarder in dress rehearsal
Andrew Franks converted his only field-goal attempt during Thursday's preseason game against the Eagles.The Miami Dolphins were able to get into the end zone five times Thursday, which contributed to Franks' low usage. However, the third-year kicker was perfect on all of his PATs and looked plenty ready for the regular season after sending a 56-yarder through the uprights just before halftime.

Dolphins' Andrew Franks: Will likely face competition in training camp
Andrew Franks finished the 2016 season 16-for-21 on his field-goal attempts.That comes out to a 76.2 percent success rate, which is well below the norm in today's NFL. Franks has a big leg but only attempted two field goals over 50 yards this season, which could make one wonder if the coaching staff just doesn't trust him. Franks was 41-for-42 on extra-point attempts, but that won't be enough to solidify his job for next season.

Dolphins' Andrew Franks: No field goals in season finale
Andrew Franks didn't attempt a field goal but converted two extra points in the Miami Dolphins' season finale Sunday against the Patriots.Franks wasn't needed for a field goal for the third time in the past seven games, which comes as little surprise considering Miami has attempted the fewest in the league all season. Coupled with his dismal 71 percent accuracy (29th in the NFL), Franks doesn't appear to be a trustworthy fantasy option for Sunday's postseason matchup with the Steelers.

Dolphins' Andrew Franks: Comes up big in win
Andrew Franks made two huge field goals in the Miami Dolphins 34-31 overtime win over Buffalo on Saturday.Franks kicked the game tying 55-yard FG with just .06 seconds remaining in the game. Not only was the kick his longest of the season but it came in windy conditions and with the FG unit having to rush onto the field after the offense couldn't stop the clock. The game winning kick was a much easier shot as it came from only 27 yards out.

Dolphins' Andrew Franks: Misses two field goals in win
Andrew Franks was 3-5 on field goal attempts during the 30-15 win over Pittsburgh on Sunday.Franks had a 24-yard field goal blocked and also missed on a 50-yard attempt. Franks is 7-10 on the season. That isn't the best of percentages but what is more concerning is that two of those misses have been from less than 30 yards. His job is safe but a few more easy misses and he could see some competition during practice.

Dolphins' Andrew Franks: Quiet in Week 5 loss
Andrew Franks converted his only field-goal attempt and both PATs in the Miami Dolphins' loss to the Titans on Sunday.Franks hasn't attempted more than one field goal in any game since the season opener as the Dolphins rank amongst the last in the league in nearly all kicking categories. While Franks is at least an average talent, his production is more so tied to the effectiveness of Miami's offense, which hasn't been firing on all cylinders this season. Consequently, Franks remains a low-floor, low-upside fantasy option entering a Week 6 matchup with the Steelers.
