  • Matt Gay K | SF

    Rams' Matt Gay: Another perfect performance

    Gay connected on two field-goal kicks and both extra-point attempts during Sunday's 20-12 victory against the Cardinals.

    Gay kicked off the scoring for the Rams, punching in a 22-yard field goal in the first quarter, and he added a 40-yard field goal in the second quarter. Gay is a perfect 4-for-4 on field goals and 7-for-7 on extra point attempts on the season thus far, par for the course from one of the more accurate kickers in the NFL.

  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Makes two field goals in win

    McPherson made two of three field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-12 win over the Jets.

    McPherson made two field goals in the second quarter, making one from 22 yards and another from 43. He later missed a 41-yard attempt in the fourth quarter. The kicker was also a perfect 3-for-3 on PATs and will continue to be a viable fantasy option on an explosive offense.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Commanders' Joey Slye: No action in loss

    Slye did not attempt a field goal or PAT in Sunday's 24-8 loss to the Eagles.

    Slye went a third consecutive week without a field-goal attempt to open the 2022 campaign and didn't have an opportunity to kick a PAT when the team went for two following their only touchdown of the game in the fourth quarter. The kicker remains one of the least appealing fantasy options at his position.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYG

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Perfect in win

    Koo converted both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his point-after tries during Sunday's 27-23 win against the Seahawks.

    Koo tied the game at 10 with a 41-yard field goal at the end of the first quarter and tied the game again at 20 with a 54-yard boot in the third quarter, saving a potential disastrous possession after Marcus Mariota was strip-sacked on a manageable third-down play. The Falcons offense has scored at least 25 points in each game this season and have proven capable of moving the ball efficiently, which bodes well for Koo's overall fantasy potential moving forward.

  • Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Kicks three field goals Sunday

    Carlson converted all three of his field-goal attempts and added an extra point in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Titans.

    Carlson remained perfect on the season and he's now produced 21 total points over the past two weeks, though he didn't attempt any field goals longer than 35 yards Sunday. He'll look to maintain the early momentum back home indoors against the Broncos in Week 4.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Knocks home five kicks

    Myers made all three field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Falcons.

    All three of Myers' field goals came within 32 yards. Last season, Myers hit three field goals in a game just once. The Seahawks' offense shouldn't make anyone optimistic about Myers, but it's worth noting that his next two games are in dome environments of Detroit and New Orleans.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Remains perfect

    Fairbairn converted two of two field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bears in Week 3.

    Fairbairn connected from 39 and 23 yards and remains perfect for the season on all kicks. He's tied with Cleveland's Cade York for sixth among placekickers with 25 points through three weeks.

  • Chargers' Dustin Hopkins: Hits short field goal

    Hopkins made his only field-goal attempt and extra-point attempt in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Jaguars.

    Hopkins has yet to make a field goal beyond 31 yards, but the Chargers have either been incredibly efficient offensively or completely non-existent, which was the case Sunday. Expect more kicking opportunities in what should be a high-scoring Week 4 matchup against the Texans.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Scores 11 points

    Santos was perfect on three field-goal attempts in the Bears' 23-20 win over the Texans on Sunday.

    Santos attempted just one field goal over the Bears' first two games of the season, totaling five points over those contests. His double-digit performance shows his potential upside, but with the Bears having consistent struggles on offense, Santos is difficult to trust as a reliable fantasy option.

  • Jets' Greg Zuerlein: Busy and effective in Week 3

    Zuerlein made all four of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 27-12 loss to Cincinnati.

    New York moved the ball well but couldn't get into the end zone, settling for field goals of 50, 40, 52 and 43 yards. If Zuerlein can continue to convert reliably from 50-plus yards, he should have some sneaky fantasy value on a Jets offense with enough playmakers to get into scoring range.
