Santos was a non-participant in Thursday's practice estimate due to a right hip injury.

Santos had a kick blocked in this past Sunday's weather-affected 9-3 loss to the Vikings, but he's otherwise been perfect through the first two weeks of the season, converting on field-goal tries of 40 and 50 yards and going 8-for-8 on extra-point attempts. The Bears don't have any kickers on their practice squad, and Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune notes that the team didn't bring in any kickers for workouts Thursday either, so the expectation is that Santos' hip injury is a minor concern that won't prevent him from playing Monday night against the Eagles.

Zvada made both of his field-goal attempts in Monday's 28-6 loss to the Rams.

Zvada converted kicks of 24 and 52 yards, accounting for all of the Giants' points. The rookie kicker is a perfect 2-for-2 on field goals and 4-for-4 on PATs through two games, but his fantasy appeal was dealt a major blow after Jaxson Dart suffered a knee injury that is expected to sideline him indefinitely.

Mevis missed his only field-goal try and made all four of his PATs in Monday night's 28-6 win over the Giants.

Mevis went without a field-goal attempt in Week 1 against the 49ers, but he got his first chance as time expired in the first half Monday, pushing a 43-yard try wide left. The kicker will have more opportunities moving forward, and he'll look to secure his first field-goal make Sunday against the Broncos.

Sanders reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Sanders was elevated to the active roster for the second week in a row ahead of Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Packers. The kicker made his only field-goal attempt in the contest, converting a 32-yarder in the fourth quarter. Sanders can be elevated one more time before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster, and he appears likely to operate as the Jets' starting kicker again Week 3 versus Detroit.

Ryland did not have any field-goal tries but converted on his only extra-point attempt during Sunday's 31-7 loss versus the Seahawks.

In a contest where Arizona's passing attack was all but completely stifled, Ryland only got one opportunity to add to the scoreboard. It's hard for things to go much worse from a fantasy perspective, but the Cardinals have another tough matchup on tap against San Francisco in Week 3.

Folk made one of his two field-goal attempts in Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Panthers.

Folk missed a 53-yard field goal in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest. The kicker's 41-yard attempt near the end of the first half was the Falcons' only points on the afternoon. Folk is now 3-for-6 on field-goal attempts and has made his sole PAT over the first two weeks of the season.

Boswell went 1-for-2 on field-goal tries in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Patriots.

Boswell pushed a 57-yard field-goal attempt wide left in the first quarter before later converting a 56-yarder as time expired in the first half. The kicker has now gone 3-for-5 on field-goal tries, including 1-for-3 from 50-plus yards, over two contests to open the 2026 campaign.

Pineiro did not have any field-goal tries but converted on all five of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 35-13 win versus the Dolphins.

In a game where Miami's defense was picked apart by quarterback Brock Purdy, Pineiro's services were barely needed. San Francisco is off to a scorching start in 2026, and there's not much reason to think the Cardinals defense will be the one to slow the momentum Week 3.

Santos made one of his two field-goal attempts in the Bears' 9-3 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Santos converted a 50-yard field-goal attempt on the Bears' first drive of the game, resulting in the team's only points throughout the contest. The kicker had a chance to tie the game at six points in the fourth quarter, but the 23-yard attempt was blocked by Isaiah Rodgers. Santos has made two of his three field goals this season and all eight of his PATs through two weeks.

Patterson converted two of his three field-goal attempts and his sole extra-point try during the Dolphins' 35-13 loss to the 49ers.

Patterson appears to be achieving the wrong kind of consistency. The kicker once again converted 67 percent of his field-goal attempts, missing one of his three kicks, as he did in the Dolphins' Week 1 loss to the Raiders. Patterson moves to 4-for-6 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on PATs through two games.
