Seahawks' Jason Myers: Makes all kicks
Myers made both of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Bengals.

Tyler Bass K | BUF
Bills' Tyler Bass: Puts up primetime dud
Bass missed both of his field-goal tries while knocking in both of his extra-point attempts in Sunday night's 14-9 win over the Giants.
To be fair, the field-goal attempts were from 52 and 53 yards on a night where the wind was blowing with some decent force at times, but those are the types of kicks Bass has made throughout his career, and they almost proved costly when the Bills were forced to stop the Giants on the one-yard line to secure a tight win in a game they were heavy favorites. As for Bass, he gets a pass on this one. These were the first two field-goal tries he's missed all season, and the first time he's missed two field goals in a game since Week 11 of 2021. Bass falls into a tie for 10th in kicker scoring with 47 points after the poor outing.

Brandon Aubrey K | DAL
Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Another flawless performance
Aubrey connected on both his field-goal attempts and both his PATs in Monday's 20-17 win over the Chargers.
The rookie kicker calmly drilled a 39-yard field goal with just over two minutes left in the fourth quarter to seal the victory for Dallas. Aubrey continues to be a revelation, with his only miss of the season coming on the very first extra-point attempt of his career in Week 1. Since then, the former USFL standout has booted 12 straight PATs and 16 straight FGs.

Cameron Dicker K | LAC
Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Once again solid
Dicker converted on his lone field-goal attempt and his two extra-point attempts in the 20-17 loss to the Cowboys on Monday.
The Chargers are one of the most aggressive teams in terms of going for fourth-downs, and the team's inefficiencies on offense coupled with the aggressive attitude has capped Dicker's fantasy value despite his consistency. Los Angeles should be poised for another positive offensive day in a Week 7 matchup against the Chiefs.

Justin Tucker K | BAL
Ravens' Justin Tucker: Busy Sunday in London
Tucker converted all six of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 24-16 win over the Titans and had an extra-point attempt blocked.
Tucker had a busy day as Baltimore routinely got into Tennessee territory but struggled to convert those chances into touchdowns. As a result, Tucker had his most field goal attempts in a game since Week 14 of his second season in the NFL back in 2013. Four of his field-goal attempts came from within 30 yards and only one came from beyond 40 yards. Baltimore returns home to face the Lions in Week 7.

Matt Prater K | BUF
Cardinals' Matt Prater: Makes all three kicks Sunday
Prater netted all three field-goal attempts during Sunday's 26-9 defeat to the Rams.
Prater accounted for all of the Cardinals' points Week 6, striking true from 55, 32 and 27 yards during the contest. His long made kick in the first quarter also doubled as his 74th from 50-plus yards, which extended an NFL record that he owns, per Darren Urban of the team's official site. After logging just one FGA in the previous two games, Prater again was busy Sunday, marking his fourth occasion this season with exactly three such attempts and helping push him back into a tie for 17th among kickers in scoring (7.2 points per game) with the Dolphins' Jason Sanders.

Nick Folk K | ATL
Titans' Nick Folk: Remains perfect heading into bye
Folk made all three of his field-goal attempts and converted his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens.
Folk converted field goals from 26, 27 and 38 yards to extend his perfect start to the season. He's also converted multiple attempts in five of six games on the campaign. While the Titans offense won't provide the most opportunities for Folk, he's been a consistent producer who has shown excellent accuracy.

Brandon McManus K | GB
Jaguars' Brandon McManus: Busy day Week 6
McManus went 3-for-3 on field goals and 4-for-4 on PATs during Sunday's 37-20 win against the Colts.
The veteran kicker showed off his range Week 6, as he converted field goals from 48, 49 and 51 yards, all three of which came during the second half. McManus has now attempted three field goals in four of the past five games, and he's 12-for-14 through six contests overall this year.

Blake Grupe K | IND
Saints' Blake Grupe: Misses two key FGs in loss
Grupe connected on two of four field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Texans.
Grupe had the worst performance of his young career Sunday. After making all but one of his combined kicking attempts in four of the first five games this season, the undrafted rookie missed multiple field goals for the first time, narrowly misfiring on a 52-yarder in the first quarter followed by a bad miss on a 29-yard attempt in the fourth quarter. Grupe's misses ultimately caused the Saints to have to be more aggressive on their final trips into the red zone, resulting in a turnover on downs followed by a game-sealing interception. The 5-foot-7 kicker will now look to bounce back versus Jacksonville on Thursday Night Football.

Jake Elliott K | PHI
Eagles' Jake Elliott: Misses from 37 yards
Elliott made both of his extra-point attempts but missed his only field-goal try in Sunday's 20-14 loss to the Jets.
Elliott had been a big fantasy producer in the first five weeks of the season, averaging over three made field goals per game. He produced a dud in Week 6, however, missing from 37 yards in his lone attempt. The Eagles offense as a whole struggled as they lost for the first time this season, with four turnovers cutting drives short before Elliott got the chance to work.
