  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Perfect in loss

    Boswell converted his lone field-goal attempt while making all three of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Colts.

    Boswell put the Steelers on the board Sunday with a 50-yard field goal to close out the first half, and he's now gone 5-for-6 on attempts from 50-plus yards over the first four weeks of the regular season. The 33-year-old was also perfect on extra-point tries once again. He's been a reliable option early in 2024, making 11 of 12 field-goal attempts while converting all six of his extra-point tries.

  • Commanders' Austin Seibert: Busy in victory

    Seibert made all four of his extra-point tries and both of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals.

    Seibert has been perfect since taking over for Cade York in Washington and has stayed busy on the field. The Oklahoma product was successful from 45 and 38 yards out in the win, making him 10-for-10 on FGAs this season and 9-for-9 on PATs over three games.

  • Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Misses first FGA of the season

    Butker made both of his extra-point tries but missed one of two field-goal attempts in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers.

    Butker's miss was a 65-yard attempt that came up short just before halftime, a kick that would have tied the game at 10-10 had it been successful. However, he was good from 37 yards out in the third quarter, bringing him to 8-for-9 on FGAs this season.

    Patriots' Joey Slye: Nails long field goal

    Slye made his lone extra-point try and both of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the 49ers.

    Slye's performance came in a losing effort, but it was impressive nonetheless. Before making a 54-yard attempt in the fourth quarter, the Virginia Tech product successfully hit a 63-yard try going into halftime, a kick that qualifies as the fourth-longest made field goal in NFL history and the second-longest field goal in an outdoor setting.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: No field goals needed

    Tucker made all five of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 35-10 win over the Bills.

    Tucker never got the chance to kick a field goal, but he converted when needed on PATs, as the Ravens scored five touchdowns in their easy victory over Buffalo. He's made all 13 of his extra-point tries this season, but field goals have been an issue with his 5-for-8 performance.

  • Matt Gay K | IND

    Colts' Matt Gay: Misses one in win

    Gay made all three of his extra-point tries but missed one of his three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Steelers.

    Gay connected on FGAs of 33 and 35 yards, but he missed a 54-yard attempt in the third quarter that would have given the Colts a 20-3 lead. The Utah product is now 0-for-2 from 50-plus yards on the season, but he is 7-for-7 on PATs.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Six points in win

    Fairbairn successfully converted his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 24-20 win over Jacksonville in Week 4.

    Houston has been good at finishing drives once it's inside the red zone, but Fairbairn was needed Sunday to drill a 30-yard chip shot. It was his first FGA inside the 40 yard-line. After going for double-digit points the first two weeks, Fairbairn has been held to seven points the last two games.

  • Jets' Greg Zuerlein: Critical miss leads to Week 4 loss

    Zuerlein made three of four field-goal attempts in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos.

    Zuerlein scored all of the Jets' points in this one, but his makes from 23, 35 and 40 yards were overshadowed by his missed 50-yard field-goal attempt with 47 seconds remaining, which ended the Jets' hopes of improving to 3-1. Instead, the Jets are 2-2 and Zuerlein's just 5-for-7 on field-goal attempts heading into a Week 5 trip to London to face the Vikings.

  • Packers' Brayden Narveson: Misses two more kicks

    Narveson missed two field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Vikings.

    Narveson was errant from both 37 and 49 yards out, and those misfires proved costly in a game that was decided by only two points. He has made all nine of his extra-point tries this season, but he is now just nine of 13 when trying to put three points on the board -- and he had another miss wiped out by a penalty. Head coach Matt LaFleur, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, said following Sunday's game that he has "a lot of confidence" in Narveson, but the door is open for a kicking change in Green Bay.

  • Browns' Dustin Hopkins: Costly XP miss

    Hopkins successfully converted his lone field-goal attempt and one of two extra-point kicks in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Las Vegas in Week 4.

    Hopkins rebounded from his first FGA miss in Week 3 by driving one through the uprights from 56 yards away, but the extra-point fail was costly. He was wide left early in the fourth quarter, a kick that would have left the Browns one score down instead of two had it been successful. That later proved to be critical when when Deshaun Watson was sacked inside the red zone on fourth down on the team's final possession. It's unlikely the miss will impact Hopkins' job, and the 1-3 Browns have many more pressing issues to address than their placekicker.
