Blake Grupe K | IND
Colts' Blake Grupe: Plays well in Indy debut
Grupe made both field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 36-19 loss to the Jaguars.
The kicker was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday to replace Michael Badgley, who had missed three extra points in seven games with the Colts this year. Grupe himself failed to connect on eight field-goal tries with the Saints earlier this season, but he got another shot and made the most of it Sunday. The third-year pro should get another chance next Sunday at Seattle, though he may not have many scoring opportunities against one of the league's best defenses.

Joey Slye K | TEN
Titans' Joey Slye: Perfect in win
Slye connected on his only field-goal attempt and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-29 win over the Browns.
Slye hit a 41-yarder in the fourth that put the Titans up 31-17, ultimately supplying the deciding points after Cleveland made a late run. The Tennessee kicker has missed five field goals this year and barely attempted one extra point per game, though he made the most of his chances Sunday.

Will Reichard K | MIN
Vikings' Will Reichard: Gets chances Sunday
Reichard went 1-for-1 on field-goal tries and 4-for-4 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Commanders.
The second-year pro did not attempt a single kick last week in a shutout loss to Seattle. Before Sunday, he had attempted just three extra points over the previous four games, as Minnesota's offense had been struggling. If the Vikings can stay hot next week against the Cowboys, Reichard should again get opportunities.

Andre Szmyt K | CLE
Browns' Andre Szmyt: Held to five points in loss
Szmyt converted his lone field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-29 loss to Tennessee in Week 14.
Szmyt, who rebounded from a zero-point effort in Week 13, could have had a couple more points, but Cleveland opted to go for two points after each of its two fourth-quarter touchdowns. His make came from 38 yards out. The rookie kicker has been successful on 85 percent (17-of-20) of his tries, but Cleveland's poor offense rarely puts him in the position to be of great value for a fantasy team. Szmyt's 20 field-goal attempts ranks 29th in the NFL.

Cairo Santos K | CHI
Bears' Cairo Santos: Makes every kick Sunday
Santos hit both field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Packers.
Santos hit from 33 yards in the second quarter and 41 in the third. A tough matchup against a good defense and a two-point conversion by his own team limited his extra-point opportunities, though. The Bears face another tough defense, Cleveland, in Week 15.

Zane Gonzalez K | MIA
Falcons' Zane Gonzalez: Has kick blocked
Gonzalez went 3-of-4 on field-goal attempts in Sunday's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks.
The kicker hit from 35, 43 and 27 yards Sunday, but he had a 50-yard attempt blocked in the second quarter. It was only Gonzalez's second miss in five games since he signed with the Falcons in early November, and both have been field goals, as he's been perfect on extra points.

Evan McPherson K | CIN
Bengals' Evan McPherson: Does his job on extra points
McPherson made all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 39-34 loss to the Bills.
The kicker did not attempt a field goal in the loss. McPherson has connected on a combined six field goals and six extra points in the two weeks since Joe Burrow returned to the Bengals' lineup as the team's starting quarterback, and he should continue to get opportunities as long as Burrow is leading the offense.

Wil Lutz K | DEN
Broncos' Wil Lutz: Comes through when called upon
Lutz made his only field-goal try and all three of his extra-point attempts Sunday in a 24-17 win over Las Vegas.
It was a relatively stress-free day for Lutz, as his only field-goal attempt -- which he converted -- came from just 23 yards out. The veteran kicker also made all three of his PATs. Lutz has gone 20-for-23 on FG tries and 28-for-28 on extra-point attempts this season.

Chris Boswell K | PIT
Steelers' Chris Boswell: Perfect in win
Boswell made both field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Ravens.
Both of Boswell's field goals were from shorter distances (23 and 28 yards) than extra-point tries. The kicker has only missed three times in 2025, going 21-of-24 on field-goal tries and 33-of-33 on extra-point attempts.

Matt Prater K | BUF
Bills' Matt Prater: Makes all five kicks in Week 14 win
Prater converted his lone field-goal try and all four of his PATs in Sunday's 39-34 win over Cincinnati.
Prater had to kick on a snowy field, but that didn't seem to bother him much. He made a chip-shot 26-yard FG late in the first quarter and knocked in all four of his extra-point tries. Prater has been reliable this season, making 18 of 20 field-goal attempts and 35 of 38 PATs.
