  • Mike Badgley K | BUF

    Colts' Michael Badgley: Makes all seven kicks

    Badgley made his only field-goal attempt and all six of his extra-point tries in Week 9's 45-30 win over the Jets.

    Badgley converted from 39 yards on his lone field goal and otherwise benefitted from Indy's offense putting the ball in the end zone. The veteran has made his only field-goal attempt in four straight games but has racked up 17 PATs over the same span, helping him accumulate 29 points since joining the Colts.

  • Matt Prater K | BUF

    Cardinals' Matt Prater: Nets seven points

    Prater made his only field-goal attempt as well as all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-17 win over the 49ers.

    Prater converted from 26 yards on his lone field goal and has now gone four straight games without a miss. His 73 points through nine games currently places him fourth league-wide at his position.

  • Cowboys' Greg Zuerlein: Goes on COVID-19 list

    The Cowboys placed Zuerlein on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Rob Phillips of the team's official site reports.

    The report doesn't disclose whether Zuerlein's placement on the list is a result of a positive test of the virus or due to exposure to an infected person, but at least for the time being, the Cowboys will have to plan for the kicker not being available for Sunday's game against the Falcons. According to The Dallas Morning News, the Cowboys are set to hold workouts for multiple kickers Wednesday with the hope of settling on one as a potential replacement for Zuerlein, who has converted on 14 of 18 field-goal attempts and 21 of 23 extra-point tries this season.

  • Chargers' Dustin Hopkins: Kicks game-winning field goal

    Hopkins made both of his field-goal attempts while converting only one of his two extra points in Sunday's 27-24 win over Philadelphia.

    Along with Hopkins' clutch game-winning field goal with only two seconds left on the clock, he executed a 30-yard field goal in the third quarter after the Chargers stalled in the red zone. The former Washington kicker has been perfect on field goals since joining Los Angeles, going 3-for-3 in just two games. However, the veteran kicker's inconsistencies on extra points continued as his Week 9 miss dropped him to 14 of 17 on the season. With five teams on bye in Week 10, Hopkins could be a solid fantasy option in an explosive Chargers offense.

  • Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Another clean kicking effort

    Butker nailed his two field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try Sunday versus the Packers.

    Butker has just one misfire in the kicking game all season, and that came on an attempt from more than 50 yards away. He's one of the more reliable kickers at this point, though the Chiefs' offense has been a bit of a letdown this season, shrinking his opportunities to post fantasy points.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Drills game-winner against Bears

    Boswell converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making two of three extra-point attempts in Monday's 29-27 win over the Bears.

    Boswell missed an extra-point try late in the third quarter, but he bounced back by making three field goals in the final quarter. The 30-year-old has made all 10 of his field-goal attempts while converting nine of 10 extra-point tries across the last five games.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Football Team's Joey Slye: New kicker in D.C.

    Slye signed with Washington on Tuesday.

    Since being waived by Carolina in the preseason, Slye has now spent time in three organizations, as he had stints in Houston and San Francisco before signing on in Washington. Seeing action in six games between his two prior squads, Slye connected on 11 of 13 field-goal attempts -- including a 3-for-3 mark from 50-plus yards -- and nine of 12 extra-point tries. Washington is hoping Slye can provide an upgrade at the kicker position over Chris Blewitt, who was released Tuesday after missing three kicks in two games.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Converts one field goal

    Sanders converted his lone field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries during Sunday's 17-9 win over the Texans.

    Sanders only has two games this season with more than one converted field goal, so he remains off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of formats. The Dolphins take on the Ravens on Thursday Night Football in Week 10, in what could be a low-scoring affair for Miami.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Makes three field goals

    McManus connected on three of his four field-goal attempts, while making one of his two extra-point attempts in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Cowboys.

    McManus made field goals from 27, 42 and 53 yards Sunday. After going perfect in field-goal attempts to start the year, McManus has now missed kicks in back-to-back games. The Denver offense showed some life against Dallas, and the veteran kicker could benefit from being in field-goal range more often if the team can carry over this success. McManus and the Broncos will host the Eagles in Week 10.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Another strong performance

    Santos converted two of three field-goal attempts in the Bears' 29-27 loss to the Steelers on Monday.

    Santos attempted a 65-yard field goal at the end of regulation, as the Bears tried to earn a late victory, but the ball hit the crossbar, resulting in his only miss of the evening. Although he averaged just five points per game through Week 7, he's posted 10 and nine points over the past two weeks, and as Justin Fields shows improvement, Santos' scoring ceiling may be on the rise as well.
