Myers made two of three field-goal attempts and all six of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 48-45 win over the Lions.

Myers nailed a 56-yarder but went wide left from 39 yards on his second field-goal attempt. In rebounding with a 25-yard make later, along with a bunch of PATs along the way, Myers still finished with a season-high 12 points, hitting double digits for the second game in a row.

Maher made all four of his field-goal attempts but missed one of two extra-point tries in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Commanders.

Maher converted from 53, 45, 28 and 29 yards on his field goals, which, despite missing a PAT, helped him accumulate a season-high 13 points. Through four games, Maher now sports 35 points, ranking third among kickers league-wide.

Badgley signed with the Lions' practice squad Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Badgley was cut by the Bears on Monday after making all four of his field-goal attempts in their loss to the Giants in Week 4. With Austin Seibert (groin) questionable for Sunday against the Patriots, Badgley would likely be the man to replace him if Seibert is unable to play.

Dicker signed with the Eagles' practice squad Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Dicker was a 2022 undrafted free agent out of Texas, who had spent time with the Rams and Ravens during camp. With Jake Elliott (leg) questionable for Sunday against the Eagles, Dicker will likely be the Eagles' kicker, if he's unable to go.

The Colts signed McLaughlin to the 53-man roster Tuesday.

After Indianapolis cut incumbent kicker Rodrigo Blankenship following Week 1, McLaughlin took over the role and was elevated from the practice squad ahead of each the Colts' last three games. McLaughlin converted three of four field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point attempts over that three-week stretch, which was enough for him to keep the job and earn a more permanent spot on the roster now that the Colts have exhausted his elevations from the practice squad.

Gay connected on all three field-goal attempts during Monday's 24-9 loss to the 49ers.

It was another perfect performance for Gay, who opened the game with a 39-yard field goal before adding two short field goals in the second and third quarter, respectively. The Rams have struggled offensively to start the year, which is reflected in Gay's limited usage. Week 5 brings the Cowboys to town featuring a defense hasn't given up more than 17 points in a game this season, so scoring opportunities may be at a premium again for the big-legged kicker.

Elliott sustained an apparent leg injury in Sunday's 29-21 win over the Jaguars, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Though Elliott wasn't forced to exit Sunday's contest, he was clearly affected by the injury, which may have been a factor on his missed extra-point attempt late in the second quarter. According to McLane, Eagles special teams coordinator Michael Clay said Tuesday that Elliott has a chance to play in Philadelphia's upcoming matchup with the Cardinals, but the kicker's status likely won't be determined until he's evaluated in practice over the next few days. The Eagles will return to the field Wednesday for a walk-through session to kick off Week 5 prep.

Tucker was perfect Sunday against the Bills, converting both of his field-goal attempts along with both of his extra-point attempts.

Sunday marked Tucker's first multi-field goal game of the season as well as his third week in a row with a made field goal of 50-or-more yards. Tucker surprisingly ranks outside the top 10 among kickers in fantasy production thus far this season but he has been effective as usual when called upon, going 5-for-5 on field goals and 14-for-15 on extra points. The Ravens host the Bengals on Sunday night.

Pineiro made his only field-goal attempt and extra-point try in Sunday's 26-16 loss to the Cardinals.

Pineiro nailed a 54-yard field goal, continuing his strong start with the Panthers. Through four games, the veteran has made all 14 of his kicks, totaling 30 points along the way.

Bass made all three of his field-goal tries -- including the game-winner as time expired -- in Sunday's win over the Ravens. He also made both extra-point tries.

The capable Bass has only missed one kick all season, with a 7-for-8 performance on field goals while making all 13 of his extra-point tries. In fact, Bass is perfect on 64 extra-point tries over the last two seasons and hasn't missed one since Week 14 of 2020. Bass is currently tied for fifth in the league with 34 points, as he continues to be a reliable fantasy kicker.
