  • Packers' Anders Carlson: Comes up clutch in win

    Carlson made two field goals and three extra points in Sunday's 27-19 victory over the Chiefs.

    Carlson had missed a kick of some variety in four straight appearances entering Sunday's contest, but he was true on all his attempts in Week 13, including field goals from 40 and 48 yards that gave the Packers successive five- and eight-point leads late in the fourth quarter. The Packers stuck by Carslon through his rough patch, and they figure to do the same rest of the way.

  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Pair of clutch kicks in win

    McPherson converted two of his three field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Monday night's 34-31 overtime win over the Jaguars.

    McPherson started off Monday night's contest by missing a 57-yard field-goal attempt, but he was a perfect 6-6 on kicks after that miscue. The third-year kicker out of Florida drilled a 54-yarder to put the Bengals up by three with 2:28 to go in the fourth-quarter, and he made a 48-yard game-winning field goal in overtime. McPherson's most recent outing should make fantasy managers optimistic about his rest-of-season value, as Jake Browning was able to lead Cincinnati's offense to 34 points in Week 13's affair, which ties the team's season-high in points scored in a single game.

  • Jaguars' Brandon McManus: Another miss Monday

    McManus made one of two field-goal attempts and all four PATs during Monday's 34-31 loss to Cincinnati.

    McManus missed a 48-yard field goal in the fourth quarter that would have given Jacksonville the lead, though he came through from 40 yards in the final minute to push the game to overtime. The 32-year-old made all 15 of his field goals from Week 4 to Week 11, but he's gone 4-for-6 over the past two games and is now 24-for-28 on the season.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Keeps streak alive

    Dicker made both of his two field-goal tries in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Patriots.

    Poor weather conditions and dreadful offensive inefficiency meant Dicker was the sole catalyst for points on the board, and he delivered by making both of his 38-yard field-goal attempts in the second quarter. The 23-year-old has also not missed a field goal since Week 3. With a proven ability to be consistent week after week, and two or more field-goal attempts in four of the last six weeks, Dicker is a solid start in any league.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYG

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Stays perfect

    Koo made both of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Sunday's 13-8 win over the Jets.

    Koo sank multiple field goals for the seventh time this season and continued his perfect streak. He hasn't missed a kick since Week 3,and has 17 made FGs and 14 PATs during that stretch. Koo has made 96 percent of his field-goal attempts this season, which is a career-high mark for a guy who's already considered one of the most consistent kickers in the NFL.

  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Broncos' Wil Lutz: Perfect on kicks

    Lutz made his only field-goal attempt while converting both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Texans.

    Lutz continued his perfect streak on field-goal attempts Sunday, making all 12 of his tries since Week 10. With that said, the veteran kicker was unable to produce much against the Texans as the Broncos' offense struggled to get much going throughout the contest. Lutz will look to have more of an impact on the scoreboard when the Broncos visit the Chargers in Week 14.

  • Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Limited to PATs in win

    McLaughlin did not attempt any field goals and made all three of his extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 21-18 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    McLaughlin did not get any field-goal tries for the second time in three games, although this time that unfolded in victory. The veteran kicker has been true on 41 of the 43 total kicks he's attempted through 12 games, including a perfect 22-for-22 tally on extra-point attempts. McLaughlin will have the benefit of kicking in a dome environment during Sunday's Week 14 divisional road clash against the Falcons.

  • Panthers' Eddy Pineiro: Makes his kicks

    Pineiro made his only field-goal attempt and lone extra-point try in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Pineiro converted from 23 yards on his field goal. With the Panthers offense struggling to move the ball, though, he was limited to four points for the third straight week. That stretch leaves him with 73 points on the season, placing him outside the top 25 at his position.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Converts two field goals in loss

    Elliott made both of his field-goal attempts and went 1-for-1 on extra points in Sunday's 42-19 loss to the 49ers.

    Elliott was good from 26 and 39 yards to account for all of the scoring in the first quarter, but the Eagles would be outscored 42-13 the rest of the way. The game represented the Eagles' second-lowest point total of the year, though it was also their first game with multiple field-goal attempts since Week 5.

  • Texans' Matt Ammendola: Reverts to practice squad

    Ammendola reverted to Houston's practice squad Monday.

    Ammendola made all three of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's win over the Broncos as continues to fill in for Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadricep). Fairbairn is now eligible to come off injured reserve, but head coach DeMeco Ryans said he was still uncertain if Fairbairn will be ready for the Week 14 game against the Jets; therefore, Ammendola could be in line to play once again.
