  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Misses key point-after try

    McPherson made all four field-goal attempts but missed one of two extra-point tries in Sunday's 26-25 loss to the Chiefs.

    McPherson connected from 22, 33 and 48 yards out before hitting a 53-yard field goal to give the Bengals a 25-23 lead in the fourth quarter. Unfortunately for the Florida product, he was wide right on a PAT following an Andrei Iosivas touchdown catch late in the third quarter, which ultimately ended up being the difference in the score.

  • Jets' Greg Zuerlein: Just one FG through two games

    Zuerlein made his only field-goal attempt from 33 yards and converted all three of his PAT tries in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.

    Zuerlein got another relatively light workload, as he has attempted only one field goal through two games. Aaron Rodgers and the Jets' offense will look to heat up in Thursday's home opener against the Patriots and give Zuerlein more kicking opportunities.

  • Panthers' Eddy Pineiro: Drills another kick Sunday

    Pineiro made one field goal during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.

    Pineiro remains perfect through Week 2, as the 29-year-old kicker split the uprights on a 38-yard field-goal attempt in the third quarter of Sunday's loss. Carolina's offensive struggles limited Pineiro to just that one try in Week 2, which could be a recurring theme as the Panthers travel to take on the Raiders in Week 3.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Drills four field goals in win

    Fairbairn successfully converted all four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 19-13 win over Chicago in Week 2.

    Fairbairn made kicks of 56, 47, 59 and 53 yards, He's opened the 2024 season with a pair of double-digit scoring games, following up an 11-point effort in Week 1 with 13 points in the win over the Bears. He's converted all seven field-goal attempts thus far, including all six tries from the 50 and beyond.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Another perfect day

    Hopkins was successful on all three field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 18-13 win over Jacksonville.

    Hopkins drilled kicks of 53, 38 and 44 yards in the win. He's made all seven of his kicks and scored 15 points through the first two weeks. While with the Browns, Hopkins has converted 37 of 40 field-goal attempts (92.5 percent), including all 10 from beyond the 50.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Seven points in defeat

    Santos converted both of his extra-point attempts in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

    Santos has been one of the most accurate kickers in the league since joining the Bears in 2020. Not only has he been perfect to start the season, but he's averaging 8.5 points over two games. Playing on an offense that has been breaking down in field-goal range, Santos may continue to be a solid weekly fantasy option.

  • Blake Grupe K | IND

    Saints' Blake Grupe: Has one PAT blocked Sunday

    Grupe nailed his only field goal attempt and five of six extra-point tries during Sunday's 44-19 victory versus the Cowboys.

    Grupe's lone miss came when his extra-point attempt was blocked following the Saints' final touchdown of the game. The 26-year-old recovered with a 26-yard field goal for the final score of the game late in the fourth quarter. Through two games, Grupe has gone 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts while converting all but one of his 11 PATs. He could have another productive outing if the Saints' offense continues to roll during next Sunday's home matchup versus the Eagles.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Drills overtime winner

    Myers connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win versus the Patriots.

    Myers hit field goals from 38 and 44 yards during regulation and nailed a 31-yarder in overtime to secure the team's win. The veteran kicker is perfect through two weeks, connecting on eight total field goals and four extra points. He'll look to stay on track in Week 3 versus the Dolphins.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Patriots' Joey Slye: Misses one in loss

    Slye made both of his extra-point tries but missed one of three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to the Seahawks.

    Slye hit early from 29 and 28 yards, respectively. However, with the Patriots leading 20-17 and four minutes to go in the game, he had a 48-yard attempt blocked, keeping the Seahawks within a field goal. Jason Myers kicked a field goal for Seattle with less than a minute to go, and New England ultimately lost in overtime. Slye and the Patriots will travel to New York for Week 3 with a game against the Jets on Thursday.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Keeps success going

    Reichard made both of his extra-point tries and all three field goal attempts in Sunday's 23-17 win over the 49ers.
