  • Graham Gano K | NYG

    Giants' Graham Gano: Perfect in big Week 17 win

    Gano converted his lone field-goal try and all five of his extra-point attempts Sunday in the Giants' 38-10 victory versus Indianapolis.

    Gano wasn't challenged much in the blowout win, as his lone field-goal try came from 36 yards out. Still, the veteran came through on that attempt as well as on all five of his extra-point tries to help the Giants earn a playoff-clinching victory. Over the past three weeks, Gano has converted all six of his field-goal tries and eight of his extra-point attempts.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Scores four points in defeat

    Santos converted his lone field-goal attempt in the Bears' 41-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    Santos hasn't scored more than seven points in a game since Week 7, and he'll remain a low-upside fantasy option in Week 18 against Minnesota.

  • Mike Badgley K | BUF

    Lions' Michael Badgley: Totals 11 points

    Badgley converted two of two field-goal attempts and five of five PATs during Sunday's 41-10 win over the Bears.

    Following three consecutive weeks with at least three field-goal tries, Badgley has attempted just three over his past two games combined. At least he was fed a healthy amount of PATs this time around to buoy his fantasy output. Next up for Badgley is a Week 18 matchup with a beatable Packers defense within the outdoor confines of Lambeau Field.

  • Colts' Chase McLaughlin: Makes lone kick in loss

    McLaughlin connected on his lone field-goal attempt during Monday's 20-3 loss to the Chargers.

    McLaughlin put the Colts on the board with a 46-yard field goal in the second quarter, cutting the Chargers' lead to 7-3. However, he didn't get any more opportunities after that, as Indianapolis' offense couldn't generate any consistency with Nick Foles at the helm. Across 14 games, McLaughlin has connected on 28 of 33 field-goal attempts and all 16 of his PATs.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Makes two field goals

    McManus made both of his field-goal tries and did not attempt an extra point in Sunday's 51-14 loss to the Rams.

    McManus converted from 55 and 49 yards out in the contest on a day when the Broncos' offense struggled. Through 15 games, the veteran kicker has now made 26 of his 34 field-goal attempts this season. McManus could see more opportunities in scoring range in a Week 17 matchup with the Chiefs, as the two teams combined for 62 total points in Week 14.

  • Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Makes one field goal

    Carlson made his only field-goal attempt and converted his lone extra-point try in Saturday's 13-10 loss to the Steelers.

    Carlson had a quiet day as the Raiders struggled to move the ball on offense. The veteran kicker has now made 30 field goals this season, tied for the third-most of all kickers. Despite his minimal involvement against the Steelers, Carlson remains worthy of consideration heading into a Week 17 matchup with the 49ers.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Perfect yet again

    Dicker converted both of his field-goal attempts and extra-point tries in the 20-3 win over the Colts on Monday.

    Dicker continues to get simple chip shots when the offense struggles in the red zone, but with head coach Brandon Staley dialing back the aggression in recent weeks, the undrafted rookie free agent has been worthy of fantasy consideration. He's missed just one kick since taking over for injured starter Dustin Hopkins (hamstring).

  • Tyler Bass K | BUF

    Bills' Tyler Bass: Struggles in nasty weather

    Bass missed his only field-goal attempt -- a 38-yarder -- and was 3-of-4 on extra-point tries in Saturday's win over the Bears.

    Bass has been locked in all season, as the field-goal miss was his first since Week 9, so this can probably be easily forgiven, though he and the Bills were clearly frustrated with either the kicking conditions or the kicking game, as they went for two points at one point when an extra-point try would have normally been the call. Nonetheless, the team and its kicker got their acts together in the second half, where Bass made three extra-point tries to finish up the day. Bass may not be done dealing with tricky conditions, as the Bills head to Cincinnati in Week 17 before finishing up at home against the Patriots.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Makes two field goals

    Elliott converted both of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point attempts in Saturday's 40-34 loss to the Cowboys.

    Elliott was perfect Saturday, converting field goals from 47 and 25 yards out. The 27-year-old kicker has now made 84 percent of his field-goal attempts this season. Elliott will look to build upon his solid performance when the Eagles host the Saints in Week 17.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: Makes three field goals in win

    Tucker made three of four field-goal tries and did not attempt an extra point in Saturday's 17-9 win over the Falcons.

    Tucker connected on two field goals from 21 yards out and one from 27 yards. The 33-year-old's only miss was a 55-yarder that was blocked late in the first quarter. The veteran kicker remains a must-start heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Steelers.
