  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Cleared for Week 15

    McManus doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against Arizona.

    For a second straight week, McManus was limited to start prep due to a quad issue but has been cleared for game action after submitting a full practice Friday. Across 13 appearances, he's 23-for-30 on field-goal attempts, with five of his seven misses coming from beyond 50 yards.

    Saints' Wil Lutz: Back to full practice

    Lutz (illness) practiced fully Thursday.

    After sitting out Wednesday's session due to an illness, Lutz was back operating on all cylinders one day later, all but clearing him Sunday's matchup with the Falcons. On the season, Lutz sits in a tie for 20th among kickers with at least 12 appearance with the Broncos' Brandon McManus at 6.5 points per game.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Limited by quad injury

    McManus (quadriceps) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Ellie Kinney of the Broncos' official site reports.

    McManus is back on the injury report to start Week 15 prep, just like he was one week ago. He ultimately suited up in the Broncos' loss to the Chiefs and made all four of point-after tries. Barring a setback, McManus should be cleared to play in this Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Saints' Wil Lutz: Sidelined with illness

    Lutz didn't practice Wednesday due to an illness, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    The severity of the aliment remains unclear, but Lutz will have two more opportunities to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's game against Atlanta. The Saints don't have another kicker on the 53-man roster or practice squad, so any signing heading into the weekend would be an indication that Lutz isn't on track to play.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Nets 11 points

    Dicker made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 23-17 win over the Dolphins.

    Dicker converted field goals from 33, 31 and 28 yards. In six games with the Chargers, he's missed just one of 26 attempts, racking up an impressive 51 total points.

  • Tyler Bass K | BUF

    Bills' Tyler Bass: Another clean game

    Bass made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jets.

    Bass converted from 38 and 49 yards on his field goals. With four games remaining, his 115 points leads all kickers this season.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Makes four PATs in loss

    McManus did not attempt a field goal and made all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-28 loss to the Chiefs.

    Though McManus was perfect on his extra-point attempts Sunday, his production was limited by a surprisingly effective day for Denver's offense. Going forward, it's unlikely that the Broncos will all of a sudden be a team that consistently finishes drives in the end zone. For that reason, McManus remains a solid play based on Denver's tendency to stall in scoring range. The 31-year-old kicker will look to bounce back for fantasy purposes when the Broncos host the Cardinals in Week 15.

  • Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Nails all six attempts

    Butker went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on point-after tries during Sunday's 34-28 win against the Broncos.

    Butker has missed just one kick over the last four games and has made multiple field goals in three of the last four. He remains one of the top options at the kicker spot in fantasy leagues and sees some good matchups over the season's final weeks.

  • Nick Folk K | ATL

    Patriots' Nick Folk: Perfect in Monday night win

    Folk converted both of his field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries during Monday's 27-13 win over the Cardinals.

    Folk has converted 27 of 32 field-goal attempts through 13 appearances this season, and he remains perfect on his 27 extra-point tries. The veteran could again see solid scoring opportunities against the Raiders in Week 15.

  • Matt Prater K | BUF

    Cardinals' Matt Prater: Misses one field goal in loss

    Prater converted two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Monday's 27-13 loss to the Patriots.

    Prater's opportunities were limited due to Kyler Murray (knee) exiting Monday's loss early and Arizona's offense stalling after that. The veteran has missed just two out of 14 field-goal attempts on the season, but his lack of consistent opportunities keeps him off the fantasy radar heading into a tough Week 15 matchup against Denver.
