  • Nick Folk K | ATL

    Titans' Nick Folk: Makes all four kicks

    Folk made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in Monday's 28-27 win over the Dolphins.

    Folk was only asked to convert from short range, as his field goals came from 28 and 23 yards away. He also made both of his extra point attempts, returning to perfection after missing his first kick of the season in Week 13. Folk has been an extremely reliable option for the Titans and has made multiple field goals in consecutive contests.

  • Mason Crosby K | NYG

    Mason Crosby: Time in L.A. over

    The Rams cut Crosby from their practice squad Tuesday.

    Though the Rams elevated Crosby to the practice squad ahead of this past Sunday's game against the Ravens just days after he signed with the team, he was ultimately inactive for Los Angeles' 37-31 overtime loss. The Rams instead stuck with the struggling Lucas Havrisik as their kicker, and he was able to solidify his job by knocking down both of his extra-point tries and all three of his field-goal attempts, including one from 51 yards. With Havrisik seemingly now secure as the Rams' kicker heading into the final four games of the season, Los Angeles will allow the 39-year-old Crosby to attempt to find work elsewhere.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Extra point made

    Dicker made his sole extra-point attempt in Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos.

    The Chargers' inability to put together meaningful offensive drives handicapped Dicker, as Sunday was his first outing of the year without a field-goal attempt. The 23-year-old is still 19 for 20 on the season with his sole miss a 53-yarder in Week 3, but with Justin Herbert (finger) done for the season, it's hard to imagine the offense somehow looking more effective in the weeks to come.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYG

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Misses two kicks

    Koo missed two of three field-goal attempts and made both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Koo began by converting from 20 yards but subsequently hit the right upright from 50 and went wide left with a 52-yarder. In the end, those misses contributed toward the Falcons falling short. Through 13 games, he now sports 95 points total.

  • Packers' Anders Carlson: Tallies career-best 10 points

    Carlson made three of four field goal attempts and an extra point in Monday's 24-22 loss to the Giants.

    Carlson's missed field goal in the fourth quarter ultimately proved impactful in a game the Packers lost by two points, but on the positive side, he made three field goals and scored 10 points, both for the first time as a professional. Carlson put 19 points on the board over the last two weeks after averaging 5.9 points per contest prior to that, but he will have his work cut out for him in Week 15, as he and the Packers take on a Buccaneers team that ceded just four field goal attempts and two made field goals over its last two contests.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Expected back for Week 15

    Fairbairn has made a full recovery from a right quadricep strain and is expected to return from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game in Tennessee, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    While Fairbairn has missed Houston's last five games while recovering from the injury, Matt Ammendola has stepped in as the Texans' kicker and has converted six of nine field-goal attempts and 10 of 11 extra-point tries. Ammendola has since been returned to the practice squad, setting the stage for Fairbairn to reclaim kicking duties. The Texans will likely designate Fairbairn for return from IR when the team resumes practicing Wednesday.

  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Broncos' Wil Lutz: Perfect once again

    Lutz made his only field-goal attempt while converting all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 24-7 win over the Chargers.

    Lutz extended his perfect streak on kicks, connecting on a field goal from 23 yards at the end of the first half. The veteran now boasts a 93 percent success rate on field goals in 2023, matching a career-high mark set back in 2018 as a member of the Saints. Lutz will look to get more involved and remain perfect when the Broncos visit the Lions in Week 15.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Crucial blocked kick in loss

    Sanders converted two of three field-goal tries and all three of his extra-point attempts during Monday's 28-27 loss to Tennessee.

    Sanders had a 44-yard field-goal attempt blocked by Denico Autry in the final minutes of the second quarter, a score which could've potentially put Miami over the top in Monday's narrow loss. The Dolphins may need to rely on the kicking game more than usual to put up points Week 15 versus the Jets' stout defense, especially if top playmaker Tyreek Hill (ankle) is less than 100 percent.

  • Giants' Randy Bullock: Comes through with winning kick

    Bullock went 1-for-2 on field-goal tries and made all three of his extra-point attempts in Monday's 24-22 victory versus the Packers.

    Bullock missed a 48-yard field goal in the first quarter, but he atoned for that by making all of his kicks for the remainder of the contest. The biggest of those was a 37-yard field goal as time expired in the fourth quarter to give the Giants their third straight victory. Bullock has made exactly one field goal in each of his past four contests, and Monday's miss was his first in his five-game stint with New York.

  • Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Another long kick in win

    McLaughlin connected on field-goal attempts of 55 and 38 yards while also drilling all three extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 29-25 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    McLaughlin opened the scoring on the afternoon with his impressive 55-yarder in the first quarter, the kicker's fifth field goal of 50+ yards in six tries this season. McLaughlin also pushed his perfect PAT tally to 25-for-25 with his trio of extra points Sunday, but he'll be operating in what should be far from the climate-controlled conditions he enjoyed versus the Falcons when the Bucs travel to take on the Packers in Week 15.
