Prater made his only field-goal attempt as well as his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Panthers.

Prater's opportunities were limited due to Arizona's offensive struggles without starting quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle). The veteran converted from 47 yards on his field goal, helping bring his season tally to 77 points through 10 games.

Folk (knee) is listed as limited on Tuesday's practice report.

Folk has appeared on the injury report with the knee problem since Week 3. It has yet to keep him out of a game.

The Lions signed Patterson to their active roster off the Patriots' practice squad Tuesday.

With Austin Seibert (hip) on injured reserve, Ryan Santoso was promoted from the practice squad for Week 10, but he missed a PAT that would've likely ended the game in regulation, and he missed a potential game-winning 48-yard field goal in overtime. Santoso was released by the Lions on Tuesday, making room for Patterson to join the active roster. Patterson will likely operate as the primary place kicker in Week 11.

The Saints signed Maher to their practice squad Tuesday, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.

Maher has yet to kick in a game this season, though he spent time with New Orleans during the preseason prior to suffering an injury. He could become the team's new kicker as early as Sunday's matchup against the Eagles after Brian Johnson missed two extra-point attempts in Week 10 against the Titans.

Hopkins converted on both his field-goal attempts along with both extra points in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Vikings.

Hopkins was able to drill a 46-yard field goal early in the second quarter while also making a chip-shot 24-yard field goal in the fourth quarter. Unlike last week in which the veteran kicker missed an extra point, Hopkins made both of his extra-point attempts this go around, moving him to 16-of-19 on the year for extra points. The 31-year-old continues to benefit from his change of scenery to a more high-powered offense where he's had many more kicking opportunities.

Butker finished 2-for-3 on field goals and 5-for-5 on extra-point attempts Sunday versus the Raiders.

Butker's miss Sunday evening marked just his second of the season and his first from inside of 50 yards. On the positive side of things, the Chiefs' offense seems to be headed in the right direction again, giving Butker a season-high eight combined kicking attempts between field goals and extra points Sunday. With Dallas up next, the Chiefs will likely need to light up the scoreboard again in a battle of two high-powered offenses.

Carlson converted both of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 41-14 loss to the Chiefs.

Carlson did not attempt a field goal Sunday as the Chiefs' defense held its opponent under 20 points for a third consecutive week. The Raiders will remain in Las Vegas for another home tilt against the Bengals, who are coming off their bye week.

Gay hit a 37-yard field goal and connected on his lone extra-point attempt during Monday's 31-10 loss to San Francisco.

It was a down fantasy showing for Gay, as head coach Sean McVay tried to fake a field goal at the end of the first half, and the Los Angeles offense was never able to find a consistent groove Monday. The Rams don't play again until Week 12 against Green Bay, and while Gay projects to finish the season strong, he might not be worth a stash on fantasy benches for Week 11.

McManus connected on two of his three field-goal attempts, with one being blocked in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Eagles.

McManus made his lone extra-point attempt in the contest. The veteran made field goals from 28 and 21 yards. With Denver's offense struggling against Philadelphia, McManus did not see enough opportunities to have a big game for fantasy purposes. Heading into the team's bye in Week 11, the 30-year-old kicker has hit 18 field goals on 21 attempts.

Wright made one of two field-goal attempts and missed his lone PAT during Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Colts.

Wright missed wide right on the extra point following Jacksonville's first touchdown, and he was wide right again from 51 yards during the third quarter. The 25-year-old did convert from 56 yards to close out the first half. Wright has attempted only two fields goals from inside 40 yards in six games, though he is 4-for-6 on attempts from 50-plus yards.
