Cameron Dicker K | LAC
Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Perfect once more
Dicker knocked home his lone field-goal attempt and also converted on all five of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 41-38 loss to the Lions.
The second-year kicker continues to be a revelation, as Dicker has missed just two of his field-goal attempts since joining the Chargers in Week 9 of last season. Expect the 23-year-old to have a solid day with the offense set to square off against the miserable Packers defense in Week 11.

Giants' Randy Bullock: Reverts to practice squad
Bullock reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday.
Bullock converted his only field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. The 2012 fifth-round pick could have another opportunity to be called up next week versus the Commanders with Graham Gano (knee) still on injured reserve, though Cade York is also on the active roster.

Panthers' Eddy Pineiro: Short on game-winner
Pineiro made two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in a 16-13 loss to the Bears in Week 10.
Pineiro converted from 33 and 39 yards prior to coming up short on a 59-yard attempt to tie the game with under two minutes remaining. Through nine games, he's made 29 of 33 total kicks, accumulating 61 points.

Matt Ammendola K | HOU
Texans' Matt Ammendola: Sent to practice squad
Ammendola reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday.
Ammendola will return to Houston's practice unit for the time being, but he'll likely operate as the team's placekicker again in Week 11 with Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) on injured reserve. Ammendola went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts while also making all three of his PATs in Sunday's 30-27 win over Cincinnati.

Brandon McManus K | GB
Jaguars' Brandon McManus: Converts lone kick
McManus made his only field-goal attempt during Sunday's 34-3 loss to the 49ers.
The 32-year-old put Jacksonville on the board with a 37-yard field goal during the second quarter, and that ended up being the team's only points of the game. McManus missed two field goals Week 3 against Houston but is otherwise perfect on 18 tries this season, and he also has yet to miss an extra-point attempt. If he's able to maintain this level of accuracy, the 90 percent hit rate would be the best of his career.

Giants' Randy Bullock: Hits lone field-goal try in Week 10
Bullock made his only field-goal attempt and converted both extra-point tries in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys.
The Giants were shut out in the first half, but Bullock avoided a second straight goose egg with two point-after conversions and a 40-yard field goal after halftime. The veteran kicker made his 2023 debut last week in Las Vegas but didn't get to attempt a kick as New York was blown out by the Raiders. Bullock was placed on the practice squad after that game before being elevated ahead of Week 10, and the Giants also have Cade York on the roster, but given that he didn't have any issues against Dallas, there's a good chance Bullock retains the kicking job moving forward. Nonetheless, he's far from a reliable fantasy option given the poor state of New York's offense.

Daniel Carlson K | LV
Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Adds 10 points in SNF win
Carlson made all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.
Carlson appears to be past the minor groin injury that impacted his practice participation from late October into early November, making three field goals in back-to-back contests the past two weeks. Carlson's Sunday Night Football performance was highlighted by a 54-yard field goal as time expired at the end of the first half, marking his first 50-plus yard conversion of the season. The Raiders now travel to Miami for a Week 11 matchup against the Dolphins.

Chris Boswell K | PIT
Steelers' Chris Boswell: Makes three field goals Sunday
Boswell converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making both of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 23-19 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Boswell had two attempts from over 40 yards during Sunday's matchup, but he was perfect once again to help lead the Steelers to the narrow win. The 32-year-old has been perfect in eight of his nine appearances this season, with his lone missed field-goal attempt coming on a 61-yard attempt against Jacksonville in Week 8, though it's worth noting that he made the initial 56-yard try in that situation before it was negated due to a penalty. In total, Boswell has converted 17 of 18 field-goal attempts while making all 13 of his extra-point tries this season.

Greg Zuerlein K | NYJ
Jets' Greg Zuerlein: Four FGs account for all NYJ points
Zuerlein made all four of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 16-12 loss to the Raiders.
For the second time in as many weeks, Zuerlein accounted for all of the Jets' points. He has made all six of his field-goal attempts over that span and is 22-for-23 this season. Zuerlein connected from 47, 53, 30 and 45 yards in the Week 10 loss.

Joey Slye K | TEN
Commanders' Joey Slye: Misses extra point
Syle made both of his field-goal attempts in the Commanders' 29-26 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday, but he was only able to connect on two of three extra-point tries.
Slye's PAT miss hit the left upright after the team scored on its opening drive. He was perfect from there, hitting 49- and 47-yard field goals in the second and third quarters, respectively. He'll take the field again in Week 11 against the Giants.
