  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Converts all six kicks vs. Steelers

    McPherson made his lone field-goal attempt and went 5-for-5 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers.

    McPherson was perfect on his kicking attempts Sunday, though it amounted to just eight total points. He's 10-for-10 on field-goal attempts under 40 yards but just 6-for-12 outside that range, including 3-for-7 from 50-plus yards. McPherson is up to 85 points through 12 regular-season games, going 16-for-22 on field-goal tries and 37-for-38 on extra-point attempts.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: Struggles again in loss

    Tucker went 2-of-4 on field-goal attempts and 1-of-2 on extra-point tries during Baltimore's loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

    Tucker struggled once again Sunday, missing field goals from 47 and 53 yards, and he has converted on just 70.4 percent of his field-goal attempts this season. The 35-year-old has now missed two field goals in a game twice in the past three weeks, a feat he previously hadn't accomplished since 2022.

  • Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Compiles 14 points in OT win

    McLaughlin connected on field-goal attempts of 27, 26, 51 and 30 yards, misfired on a 55-yard try and knocked home both PATs in the Buccaneers' 26-23 overtime win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    As his final line corroborates, McLaughlin was a major factor in Tampa Bay's victory, although, ironically, he came one play from being the culprit in a potential loss. McLaughlin knocked a 55-yard try wide left at the end of the Buccaneers' first drive in overtime, but he subsequently made good on his chance to atone following Chuba Hubbard's fumble by drilling a game-winning 30-yard attempt. McLaughlin now has missed a kick in consecutive games -- he failed to convert one of his four PATs in Week 12 -- for the first time in his near two-season stint in Tampa Bay, but he'll remain an elite option for a fantasy-friendly home matchup against the Raiders in Week 14.

  • Riley Patterson: Back with practice squad

    Patterson reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Patterson was inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Chargers after operating as a safety option for Younghoe Koo throughout the week. Koo was dealing with a hip injury but was ultimately able to play. Patterson will now return to the practice unit, but it's unclear how long he may stick around Atlanta.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Misfires another extra point

    Myers hit both field-goal attempts and two of three extra-point tries in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets.

    Myers connected on both kicks from beyond 40 yards, including a 54-yarder. However, he has now missed an extra-point try in three of the last four games. It hasn't been a determining factor in any of the games thus far. Myers has hit 11 of 14 kicks from beyond 40 yards this season. He'll enjoy a dome atmosphere in Week 14 versus the Cardinals.

  • Commanders' Zane Gonzalez: Signs to active roster

    The Commanders signed Gonzalez to their active roster Monday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    The 29-year-old was elevated to the Commanders' active roster to kick in three of their last four games, with Austin Seibert sidelined due to groin and hip injuries. Seibert was placed on injured reserve Nov. 26 and is eligible to return for Washington's Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys at the earliest. Gonzalez's signing Monday suggests he'll remain the Commanders' kicker until Seibert is back from injury. Gonzalez struggled in Washington's blowout win over the Titans on Sunday, missing both of his field-goal attempts. However, he's converted all 10 of his extra-point tries over three games and has the support of head coach Dan Quinn, who said he's "pleased with what they've seen over the last month" regarding Gonzalez's performance.

  • Jake Moody K | WAS

    49ers' Jake Moody: Struggles in snow storm

    Moody went 1-for-3 on field-goal attempts while hitting his only point-after try in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Bills.

    Moody missed multiple attempts for the second time in four weeks, shanking kicks from 45 and 55 yards out. The kicker's last blunder-filled outing came in calm conditions, but a harsh snow storm in Buffalo was likely the culprit this time around. The sophomore has missed just one FGA in his seven other active games this season, leading to a decent 76 percent make rate through nine total contests. Moody should resume his consistent play with a pair of home tilts on tap in sunny Santa Clara, CA, starting with the Bears this coming Sunday.

  • Joshua Karty K | ARI

    Rams' Joshua Karty: Quiet day in victory

    Karty connected on all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 21-14 win against the Saints.

    The rookie's grasp on the Rams' kicking role had weakened after a multi-week slump, and while his performance on Sunday didn't do much to move the needle towards restoring that confidence, a misfire on any of his three extra-point attempts would have been the fourth straight week that Karty would've recorded a missed kick. A tough matchup with the Bills in Week 14 will be Karty's next opportunity to produce.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Makes three field goals in win

    Boswell made three of four field-goal attempts while converting all five of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.

    Boswell has now missed kicks in back-to-back weeks, but Sunday's miss against Cincinnati came on a blocked kick early in the third quarter. However, the 33-year-old still saw plenty of work in Pittsburgh's high-scoring win, and he's now converted 34 of 37 field-goal attempts while making all 26 of his extra-point tries this season.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Reliable in road win

    Elliott made his only field-goal try and converted all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 24-19 win at Baltimore.

    Elliott's only field goal of the day, which put the Eagles ahead 24-12 late in the fourth quarter, was a 35-yarder, only a bit longer than an extra point. He still hasn't missed a field goal from within 39 yards this season and profiles as a relatively safe fantasy option when Philadelphia hosts the Panthers' weak defense in Week 14.
