Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Racks up 14 points in win
Carlson made all four of his field-goal attempts and converted two of three extra-point tries in Sunday's 32-23 win over the Broncos.
Carlson missed an extra point after the Raiders scored their first defensive touchdown since 2019, but he's now a perfect 12-for-12 on field-goal attempts through the first four games of the season. He'll look to remain a reliable fantasy asset at Kansas City in Week 5 on Monday Night Football.

Younghoe Koo K | NYG
Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Perfect in win
Koo converted on all three of his field-goal attempts and both point-after tries during Sunday's 23-20 victory over the Browns.
Koo opened the scoring with a 30-yard field goal on the Falcons' first offensive possession, and after connecting on back-to-back PATs, he added a game-tying 21-yard chip shot and a game-winning 45-yard field goal in the fourth quarter. Atlanta's offense continues to move the ball well, but they've struggled mightily in the red zone, which bodes well for Koo's overall fantasy potential. Through four games, the fifth-year kicker has made 10 of 12 field-goal attempts and all nine of his extra-point tries.

Ka'imi Fairbairn K | HOU
Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Misses first FGA
Fairbairn converted one of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Chargers in Week 4.
A first-quarter kick from 46 yards was wide left, Fairbairn's first miss of the season. He nailed a 40-yarder in the fourth to bring Houston within one score, but the defense couldn't prevent the Chargers from tacking on a final touchdown. Fairbairn has successfully converted eight of nine field goal attempts and 31 points through four games.

Cade York K | NYJ
Browns' Cade York: No misses Week 4
York converted two of two field-goal attempts and both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Atlanta in Week 4.
York returned to being perfect after missing extra points in each of the last two weeks. The rookie kicker could have had a third field goal, but head coach Kevin Stefanski went for seven points on 4th-and-goal from the four-yard line on the first drive of the game, which ended with an incomplete pass. York is a perfect 8-for-8 on field goals and has 33 points through four weeks.

Graham Gano K | NYG
Giants' Graham Gano: Hits two of three FG tries
Gano made two of three field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries Sunday in a 20-12 win over the Bears.
Gano converted a 44-yard try in the third quarter and a 43-yarder in the fourth. He could have sealed the win with a 37-yarder with less than 30 seconds remaining in the fourth and New York up by eight points, but he hit the left upright. It was just his second miss inside 40 yards over the past three seasons but didn't end up costing New York in the win column. Gano has converted 9-of-11 field-goal tries and all five of his extra-point attempts so far this season.

Mike Badgley K | BUF
Bears' Michael Badgley: Big performance
Badgley was perfect on four field-goal attempts in the Bears' 20-12 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
With Cairo Santos missing this game for personal reasons, Badgley score all of Chicago's points. He'll likely retain the kicking role until Santos is able to return. However, with the Bears being a low-volume offense, it's unlikely the Bears' kicker will have many big games.

Greg Zuerlein K | NYJ
Jets' Greg Zuerlein: Accurate since shaky debut
Zuerlein made his only field-goal attempt and all three of his PAT attempts in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Steelers.
Zuerlein has made all six of his field-goal attempts and all seven PAT tries over the past three games following a rocky Jets debut in which he missed one of each. New York continued to move the ball reasonably well in quarterback Zach Wilson's (knee) season debut, so fantasy managers who had been relying on Zuerlein with Joe Flacco leading New York's offense should feel comfortable continuing to do so with Wilson under center.

Matt Prater K | BUF
Cardinals' Matt Prater: Active Sunday, per usual
Prater (hip) is listed as active Sunday in Carolina.
After his practice reps were capped during Week 4 prep, Prater entered the weekend with a questionable designation, but he'll nonetheless handle placekicking duties for the Cardinals on game day. He hasn't got much work this season due to circumstances beyond his control, but he has made all four field-goal attempts and both point-after tries through three games.

Mike Badgley K | BUF
Bears' Michael Badgley: Set for Week 4 kicking duties
Badgley will serve as the Bears' placekicker in Sunday's game against the Giants, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Badgley signed with the Bears on Saturday and will now start for the team in place of Cairo Santos (personal). The veteran converted 18 of his 22 field-goal tries across 13 games between the Colts and Titans last season, but rain and wind could impact Sunday's contest and therefore limit kicking opportunities.

Cairo Santos K | CHI
Bears' Cairo Santos: Downgraded to out
The Bears have downgraded Santos (personal) to out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Santos didn't officially travel with the team, so it's not too surprising to see him be ruled out after having initially been listed as questionable. In his absence, Michael Badgley, who signed with Chicago yesterday, will handle kicking duties versus New York.
