Tyler Bass K | BUF
Bills' Tyler Bass: Misses first kick of season
Bass was 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made both of his extra-point kicks in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins.
The miss was Bass's first of any type on the season, but it was a costly one as the Bills lost by two points. Bass is now 4-of-5 on field-goal tries while hitting all 11 of his extra-point attempts on the campaign. He remains one of the elite kickers in fantasy, though it's worth noting the high-powered Buffalo offense did suffer a series of injuries in the loss.

Graham Gano K | NYG
Giants' Graham Gano: Converts three field goals
Gano made three of four field-goal attempts, including two 51-yarders, while converting his lone extra-point try in a loss to the Cowboys on Monday.
Gano had a 47-yard field-goal try blocked on New York's first possession of the game, marking just his second miss on 52 attempts inside 50 yards since 2020. However, the veteran kicker bounced back my making his final three field-goal tries, including two from 51 yards out. He also made his lone extra-point attempt following a Saquon Barkley touchdown run in the third quarter. Through three weeks, Gano has converted all four of his field-goal kicks beyond 50 yards and is 7-for-8 overall while also making 3-of-3 extra-point attempts.

McLaughlin reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Pineiro made all three of his field-goal attempts as well as his only extra-point try in Sunday's 22-14 win over the Saints.

Justin Tucker K | BAL
Ravens' Justin Tucker: Rare missed extra point Sunday
Tucker went 4-for-5 on extra-point attempts Sunday against the Patriots and converted a 56-yard field-goal attempt.
It was a surprise for Tucker to miss an extra point Sunday, though he did salvage his day from a fantasy perspective by hitting a 50-plus-yard field goal for the second week in a row. Tucker did not miss an extra point in 32 tries last season and hadn't missed one since Week 14 of 2020. Even with the rare miss Sunday, Tucker is tied for the league lead in extra points made and tied for second in the NFL in 50-yard field goals made. The Ravens host the Bills in Week 4.

Jake Elliott K | PHI
Eagles' Jake Elliott: Scores six points again
Elliott made his lone field-goal attempt and converted all three of his extra-point efforts in Sunday's win over Washington.
Elliott opened the scoring with a 32-yard kick early in the second quarter. The Eagles would add three more touchdowns that quarter, with Elliott adding a point each time. He's now 3-for-4 on field goals and 11-for-11 on extra points this season.

Jason Sanders K | NYJ
Dolphins' Jason Sanders: No field-goal tries again
Sanders did not attempt a field goal during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Bills. He converted all three of his extra-point tries.
Sanders has now gone back-to-back weeks without a field-goal attempt. While that certainly won't be the norm for Sanders this season, it does leave the kicker as a low-floor fantasy option for Thursday's game against the Bengals. In Week 1 versus the Patriots, Sanders converted his pair of field-goal attempts.
