  • Commanders' Zane Gonzalez: Available against Eagles

    Gonzalez (personal) will kick Sunday against the Eagles, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Gonzalez missed practice Wednesday to attend the birth of his child, but he's available to suit up Sunday. Greg Joseph wasn't elevated from Washington's practice squad, confirming Gonzalez's availability. Gonzalez has made three of five field-goal attempts and all 10 PAT tries in three appearances for Washington this season.

  • Titans' Brayden Narveson: Signed by Titans off practice squad

    Narveson was signed by Tennessee from the practice squad Saturday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    The decision to sign Narveson to the active roster rather than just elevate him from the practice squad may suggest the Titans anticipate having to use him Sunday against the Colts. Usual kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) is expected to be a game-time decision. A decision on Folk's status, and by extension Narveson's role or lack thereof, will come around 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Brayden Narveson: Likely to be elevated Saturday

    The Titans are expected to elevate Narveson from the practice Saturday to serve as an emergency option in case Nick Folk (abdomen) is inactive for Sunday's contest at Indianapolis, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Folk managed just one limited practice (Friday) this week and is listed as questionable due to an abdominal injury. Coach Brian Callahan told Turron Davenport of ESPN.com earlier Friday that Folk will be a game-time call, so the Titans' kicker for Week 16 likely will become known about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Narveson was signed to the practice squad Tuesday, which marked his first opportunity since handling kicking duties for the first six games of the season for the Packers. Overall, he was perfect on PATs (16-for-16) but erratic with field goals, connecting on only 12 of 17 attempts.

  • Matt Gay K | IND

    Colts' Matt Gay: Questionable for Week 16

    Gay (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    After logging a pair of DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday, Gay was able to practice fully Friday, suggesting he's looking good for Sunday. After a down 2023 season in which he made just 80.5 percent of his field-goal attempts, Gay has righted the ship again this season, making 24 of 27 field-goal attempts and all 23 of his extra-point tries. The Colts don't currently employ another kicker.

  • Matt Prater K | ARI

    Cardinals' Matt Prater: Won't return Sunday

    Prater (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest at Carolina, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    Since the Cardinals designated Prater for return from injured reserve Wednesday, he managed three consecutive limited practices, but it wasn't enough for him to get back on the active roster for Week 16 action. He'll thus miss his 12th straight game due to a torn left meniscus, while Chad Ryland will continue to operate as Arizona's placekicker.

  • Nick Folk K | TEN

    Titans' Nick Folk: Likely to be game-time call

    Coach Brian Callahan said Friday that Folk (abdomen) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Colts, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    The Titans are expected to have Brayden Narveson elevated from the practice squad as insurance should Folk be unable to kick versus Indianapolis. Folk has been nearly automatic this season, making 21 of 22 field-goal attempts (95.5 percent) and all 25 of his extra-point tries. He's been the Titans' best means of scoring in 2024.

  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Broncos' Wil Lutz: Stays perfect vs. Chargers

    Lutz made both field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries during Thursday's 34-27 defeat to the Chargers.

    Lutz kept his field-goal streak going against the Chargers, nailing both of his attempts and tacking on three XPAs. The veteran boot has been a consistent option for Denver so far this season, providing some relief in games during which the offense hasn't gotten going like in the second half versus Los Angeles. He's now converted 29 of 32 field-goal attempts and hasn't missed a kick since Week 10.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Perfect in win vs. Broncos

    Dicker went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on point-after tries during Thursday's 34-27 victory over Denver.

    Dicker finished out the big TNF win over the Broncos perfect on all of his attempts, and he hasn't missed a field goal since Week 9 against the Browns. One of his field goals came on an unorthodox free kick with zero seconds remaining in the first half. The fourth-year kicker has now made 31 of 33 FGAs and 27 of 30 extra-point attempts across 15 games this season.

  • Nick Folk K | TEN

    Titans' Nick Folk: DNP on Thursday

    Folk (abdomen) was listed as a DNP on Thursday's injury report, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    Folk has missed the Titans' first two practices of the week due to an abdominal injury, and it appears he is in jeopardy of being sidelined for Sunday's game against the Colts. The Titans have Brayden Narveson on the practice squad, and he would be elevated to the active roster should Folk not progress through his recovery enough to play. Folk has been one of the most accurate kickers in the NFL this year, going 21-for-22 on field-goal attempts and converting on all 25 extra-point tries through 14 regular-season games.

  • Matt Prater K | ARI

    Cardinals' Matt Prater: Limited in practice

    Prater (knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

    The Cardinals also listed Prater as limited Wednesday when they opened his 21-day window for a return from injured reserve. Chad Ryland has done a solid job filling in as the team's placekicker and will handle the role again this Sunday at Carolina unless Prater is activated from IR before then.
