    Patriots' Nick Folk: Makes one FG in Week 4

    Folk made one of his two field-goal attempts in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Buccaneers, en route to recording five points.

    As time wound down in the contest, Folk, who had made 36 consecutive field-goal tries, had a chance to put the Patriots on top, but his 56-yard attempt hit the upright and deflected wide to the left. The veteran kicker and the Patriots will now look to rebound in Week 5 versus a Houston squad that has dropped three straight games.

  • Graham Gano K | NYG

    Giants' Graham Gano: Bounces back after early miss

    Gano made two of his three field-goal attempts and his only extra point during Sunday's 26-20 overtime win over the Saints.

    Gano couldn't open the scoring with a 35-yard field goal, as he missed it wide left. However, the 34-year-old bounced back and made his final three kicks, including a 48-yarder to tie the score at 21 with 31 seconds remaining. Gano remains a reliable kicker, but his fantasy production is limited due to the Giants' inconsistent offense.

  • Football Team's Dustin Hopkins: Misses two extra points

    Hopkins made one field goal and went 1-for-3 on extra-point attempts during Sunday's 34-30 win over the Falcons.

    Hopkins' only miss of the season before Sunday was a 50-plus yard attempt in Week 1. His extra-point struggles are concerning, but Washington will likely let the seven-year veteran work through his woes. The 31-year-old kicker has never made less than 92 percent of his extra-point attempts, so expect him to bounce back in Week 5.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYG

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Remains perfect through Week 4

    Koo made his only field-goal attempt and all three of his extra points during Sunday's 34-30 loss to Washington.

    Koo has yet to miss this season, as he is a perfect 5-for-5 on field goals and 7-for-7 on extra points. The 27-year-old's hot start shouldn't be surprising as he made well over 90 percent of his kicks last year. However, his fantasy production remains limited due to Atlanta's sporadic offense.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Converts only FG attempt

    Sanders made his lone field-goal try and both extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Colts.

    Sanders remains as reliable as ever in terms of accuracy, though he continues to see too few weekly opportunities to be trustworthy for fantasy purposes. Through the first four games of the 2021 season, Sanders has only recorded four field goals. The Dolphins have a tough matchup in Tampa Bay on deck Week 5.

  • Cowboys' Greg Zuerlein: Doesn't miss in Sunday's win

    Zuerlein connected on his only field-goal attempt and all three of his extra points in Sunday's win over the Panthers.

    He calmly drilled a 37-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter for the Cowboys' final points of the afternoon, but Zuerlein wasn't asked to do too much before that. Despite the fact Dallas is averaging 31.5 points a game, fourth in the league, most of that production has come in the end zone -- Zuerlein has only six FGs (on eight attempts) through four weeks compared to a 12-for-14 showing on PATs. Those with fantasy shares in the kicker will hope for just a little less efficiency from Dak Prescott and company in Week 5 against the Giants.

  • Panthers' Zane Gonzalez: Misses field goal

    Gonzalez missed his only field-goal attempt but made all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 36-28 loss to the Cowboys.

    Gonzalez went wide left from 54 yards on his lone field-goal opportunity. Although another miss won't help Gonzalez' job security, it being a long-distance misfire is at least more excusable and the veteran made his four other kicks Sunday. Through three games with the Panthers, Gonzalez now boasts 18 points.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Makes one PAT in loss

    McManus didn't attempt a field goal in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Ravens but made his only PAT attempt.

    McManus didn't get the opportunity to kick any field goals Sunday, as the Denver offense struggled to move the ball throughout most of the contest. The 30-year-old kicker will look to make the most of his opportunities while continuing his perfect streak in a Week 5 matchup against the Steelers.

  • Browns' Chase McLaughlin: Keeps dialing it in long distance

    McLaughlin made two of two field-goal attempts and was not asked to kick an extra point in Sunday's 14-7 win over the Vikings.

    McLaughlin, who has not missed a kick yet, converted from 48 and 53 yards in the win. It was his third successful attempt from beyond the 50. The Browns lined up for an extra-point kick following their lone touchdown, but a defensive delay-of-game penalty changed their thinking. With the penalty enforced, Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski opted to go for a two-pointer from the one-yard line, and the team was successful.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Perfect on three kicks

    Boswell converted his lone field-goal attempt while making both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Packers.

    Boswell missed a kick in last week's loss to Cincinnati, but he got back on track in Week 4 by making three kicks, including a 52-yard field goal in the second quarter. The veteran has made 85.7 percent of his field-goal attempts while converting each of his seven extra-point tries across the first four games of the 2021 campaign.
