Jason Myers K | SEA
Seahawks' Jason Myers: Connects on 56-yarder
Myers connected on one of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 24-3 win versus the Dolphins.
Myers missed a 53-yard kick but managed to hit a 56-yarder, which was his second field goal from beyond 50 yards this year. His fantasy ceiling may be lower in Week 4 versus the Lions, who have allowed just 17.7 points per game this year.

Chase McLaughlin K | TB
Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Victim of circumstance Sunday
McLaughlin did not log any field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
The veteran kicker hasn't been used to spending the majority of a game on the sideline during his year-plus Buccaneers tenure, but Sunday was a forgettable day all the way around for Tampa Bay. The significantly subdued offensive performance -- Baker Mayfield threw for only 163 yards and took seven sacks -- kept McLaughlin from any field-goal opportunities, only the fourth time that's happened since the start of last season and the second in which the scenario also featured just a sole point-after attempt. McLaughlin should have more scoring chances in a Week 4 home matchup against the Eagles.

Jake Moody K | SF
49ers' Jake Moody: Misses deep attempt in loss
Moody went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 on point-after tries in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.
Moody nailed a chip shot from 26 yards out in the fourth quarter, but he wound up missing his final attempt from 55 yards out in the three-point loss. Similar to his missed PAT in the Super Bowl last season, the outcome of this game might have been altered had the 2023 third-round selection converted this tougher kick Sunday. It was the sophomore's first miss through three weeks, keeping Moody in the upper tier of kicking options heading into Sunday's tilt against the Patriots.

Brandon Aubrey K | DAL
Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Sets franchise record Sunday
Aubrey converted both his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's loss to the Ravens.
The Cowboys failed on a pair of two-point conversions in the fourth quarter as they tried to rally from a 28-6 deficit, costing Aubrey a couple points, but the second-year kicker remains perfect on the season, going 10-for-10 on field goals and 5-for-5 on PATs. His first FG on Sunday also came from an incredible 65 yards out -- the longest kick in Dallas history, and the second longest in NFL history after Justin Tucker's 66-yarder from 2021. Aubrey could be a lot busier against a less fearsome opponent in Week 4's clash with the Giants on Thursday night.

Younghoe Koo K | ATL
Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Nails 50-yarder in loss
Koo made both extra-point tries and his only field-goal attempt during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Chiefs.
Koo hasn't missed a kick this season and nailed his first attempt from 50-plus yards. Last year, the veteran kicker went just 3-for-6 from beyond 50, so his effortless boot in the fourth quarter on Sunday Night Football against the reigning champs was an encouraging sign for Koo's upside moving forward.

Greg Joseph K | NYG
Giants' Greg Joseph: Misses in debut with team
Head coach Brian Daboll was non-committal on Joseph's future with the Giants after he missed a 48-yard goal in Sunday's 21-15 win over the Browns, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
Joseph was signed off the Lions' practice squad to replace Graham Gano (hamstring) during his IR stint. However, after missing his lone FGA, it seems like the team may be open to bringing in other options. On a positive note for Joseph, he did make all three of his PATs in the win Sunday. The Giants face the Cowboys on Thursday, so if they do decide to make a switch at kicker, they'll need to do so quickly.

Joshua Karty K | LAR
Rams' Joshua Karty: Drills game-winning FG
Karty connected on both of his field-goal attempts and converted all three of his extra point-tries during Sunday's 27-24 victory against San Francisco.
Karty only managed to practice once during the week before Sunday's contest according to Stu Jackson of the team's official site. The lack of practice time and a nagging groin injury didn't deter the rookie kicker from showing why the team invested a sixth-round pick on him, as he came through with a 37-yard field goal with five seconds left to give the Rams their first victory of the season. Karty is a perfect 5-for-5 on field goals and 6-for-6 on extra points so far this season and looks ready to go for a Week 4 showdown with Chicago.

Chris Boswell K | PIT
Steelers' Chris Boswell: Productive once again
Boswell converted two of his three field-goal attempts while making both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 20-10 win over the Chargers.
Boswell was perfect on eight field-goal attempts over the first two weeks of the regular season, including four conversions from 50-plus yards. However, he missed a 62-yard attempt just before halftime during Sunday's Week 3 matchup. Despite Sunday's missed kick, the 33-year-old has still been reliable early in the season and should continue to be utilized regularly as the season progresses.

Nick Folk K | TEN
Titans' Nick Folk: Quiet day
Folk made both of his extra-point tries but didn't get to attempt a field goal in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Packers.
Folk hasn't had many opportunities to start the 2024 campaign, but he's gotten the job done when called upon. Through three weeks he's 2-for-2 on FGAs and 6-for-6 on PATs. Next up for Folk and the Titans is a trip to Miami to take on the Dolphins in a Monday night Week 4 matchup.

Harrison Butker K | KC
Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Three field goals Sunday
Butker missed one of two extra-point tries but made all three field goal attempts in a 22-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Butker just missed a PAT, a first for him since 2022, but he was otherwise perfect in the Week 3 victory. He connected from 53, 44, and 21 yards out, bringing him to 7-for-7 on the season on FGAs. Next week, Butker and Chiefs will travel to Los Angeles for a divisional matchup with the Chargers.
