  • Jaguars' Riley Patterson: Makes game-tying FG

    Patterson converted both field-goal attempts and all four PATs during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Cowboys.

    Patterson was successful from 33 yards during the third quarter and followed up by making a 48-yard field goal at the end of regulation to send the game to overtime. The 23-year-old went 3-for-6 on field goals in the two games preceding Jacksonville's Week 11 bye, but he's 9-for-9 across the past four contests.

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Quiet outing in loss

    Koo connected on his lone field-goal attempt and only point-after try during Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Saints.

    Koo opened the scoring for the Falcons with a 28-yard field goal in the second quarter. He added an extra point following Tyler Allgeier's five-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, but Koo stayed on the sidelines after Cordarrelle Patterson's score in the fourth, as Atlanta opted to go for a two-point conversion to cut New Orleans' lead to three. Across 14 appearances, Koo is 24 of 29 on field-goal attempts, with four of his misses coming from beyond 50 yards.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Perfect in Carolina

    Boswell converted his lone field-goal attempt while making all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 24-16 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Boswell's lone field-goal attempt was blocked last week, but he drilled a 50-yarder in the fourth quarter Sunday to put the Steelers up by two scores late in the game. Over his two appearances since returning from injury, he's made one of two field-goal attempts while converting all five of his extra-point tries.

  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Saints' Wil Lutz: Few opportunities Week 15

    Lutz did not attempt a field goal, and nailed all three extra-point tries during Sunday's 21-18 win versus the Falcons.

    Lutz was denied his best opportunities for field goals Week 15, as the Saints fumbled and turned the ball over on downs during two of their four trips within the Atlanta 30-yard line. Otherwise, New Orleans' offense came away with two touchdowns to tight end Juwan Johnson in the red zone. Lutz remained efficient, as he has now missed just one kicking attempt over the last six games. For the season, the 28-year-old has gone 20-for-26 on field-goal attempts while making all 28 of his point-after tries. Lutz will look to keep up this solid run of kicking against Cleveland in Week 16.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Makes one field goal in win

    McManus made one of his two field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 24-15 win over the Cardinals.

    McManus accounted for six of the Broncos' 24 points Sunday, but the veteran could have had a bigger day if not for a miss from 38 yards out at the end of the first quarter. In 14 games, the 31-year-old kicker has made 24 of his 32 field-goal attempts this season. His 75 percent field-goal percentage is his lowest mark since the 2017 season. McManus will look to have a more productive outing in Week 16 when the Broncos visit the Rams.

  • Panthers' Eddy Pineiro: Another big game

    Pineiro made all three of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Steelers.

    Pineiro's field goals all came in the fourth quarter, when he was successful from 29, 32 and 52 yards. The veteran has been hot lately, totaling 49 points over his last five games.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Perfect again

    Fairbairn made his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Chiefs in Week 15.

    Fairbairn has been perfect the last eight games, converting 13 of 13 FGA and 10 of 10 XPA. He's 16th in kicker scoring with 95 points, but Fairbairn is saddled with one of the league's worst offenses. He's third among qualified kickers, converting 92.6 percent (25 of 27) of his FGA, including five of five from beyond the 50.

  • Graham Gano K | NYG

    Giants' Graham Gano: Comes through in huge win

    Gano made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries Sunday in a 20-12 Week 15 win over Washington.

    Points were at a premium in the primetime divisional clash with significant playoff implications, so Gano's ability to convert when called upon was a major factor in New York's victory. The veteran kicker nailed a 50-yard field goal late in the third quarter to give the Giants an eight-point lead, then hit another 50-yarder with less than two minutes remaining in the fourth to push the team's lead back up to eight. Gano has hit 24 of 27 field-goal tries on the season and has gone 7-for-8 from 50-plus yards. The seven makes from that distance tie the single-season career-high mark he set last season.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Scores two points in loss

    Santos converted two of three extra-point attempts in the Bears' 25-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

    Santos has not surpassed seven points in a game in any of his last seven games, and his lack of upside makes him an unreliable fantasy option.

  • Cade York K | NO

    Browns' Cade York: Misses two FGAs

    York made two of four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Saturday's 13-3 win over Baltimore.

    York was in position for a big day but missed from 38 and 46 yards on successive possessions in the fourth quarter. There was some December weather in Cleveland -- winds at 12 MPH from the northeast, freezing temperatures and snow -- but York refused to use it as an excuse. "I mean, it really wasn't that bad," York told Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal. "A little windy, snow came in, had nothing to do with anything that happened. Honestly, I thought I was handling really well and kicking the ball well into that fourth quarter." Fortunately for the Browns, the rookie kicker's miscues had no impact. York's made just 73 percent (22 of 30) of his field-goal attempts and missed a total of 10 kicks this season.
