  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Saints' Wil Lutz: Misses field goal

    Lutz missed one of his two field-goal attempts but made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 24-9 win over the Falcons.

    Lutz converted from 22 yards on his first field goal, but then hit the left upright with a 53-yard attempt to close the next drive. Despite that miscue, the veteran still sports 91 points on the season, ranking fourth among kickers league-wide.

  • Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Notches seven points

    Carlson made his only field-goal attempt and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 35-31 loss to the Chiefs.

    Carlson converted from 35 yards on his lone field goal, but, otherwise being limited to PATs, Carlson's seven points actually tied his season low. That evidences how consistent and impactful the 25-year-old has been thus far, as he now sports 94 points through 10 outings.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Makes all four kicks

    McManus made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Dolphins.

    McManus' pair of field goals both came in the second quarter, from 29 and 47 yards. The veteran has been tremendously consistent this season, and now sports 78 points through 10 games.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: Hits double figures

    Tucker made all three of his field-goal attempts as well as his only extra-point try in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Titans.

    Tucker converted from 30, 27 and 29 yards on his respective field goals, which helped him hit double digits in points for the first time since Week 6. In doing so, he brought his tally to 86 points this season, tying him for eighth among kickers this season.

  • Mike Badgley K | BUF

    Chargers' Michael Badgley: Nails both field goals

    Badgley made both of his field-goal attempts and added four extra points in Sunday's 34-28 win against the Jets.

    This week's matchup against the Jets allowed for the Chargers' offense to thrive, giving Badgley a handful of opportunities to score. While this season has been pretty back and forth for Badgley, it has been two games now since the kicker has missed a field-goal attempt. The 25-year-old has now completed 16 of his 21 field-goal attempts this season.

  • Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Another barren field goal day

    Butker didn't attempt a field goal but knocked home all of his five extra-point attempts during Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

    Butker has now attempted no field goals in two of the last three games after attempting at least one in each of the first seven contests and a total of 14 over that span. He was at least perfect on his extra-point tries and could be needed more frequently next week versus a Tampa Bay squad coming off of a tough loss Monday to the Rams.

  • Matt Gay K | SF

    Rams' Matt Gay: Tops former team

    Gay connected on two of his three field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks during Monday's 27-24 win over Tampa Bay.

    This was Gay's debut with Los Angeles after spending his rookie season with Tampa Bay in 2019, and while he did miss a 44-yard field goal in the third quarter, he rebounded with the game-winning kick from 40 yards with 2:40 remaining. Fantasy managers will want to ensure Gay retains his role for a Week 12 matchup against San Francisco before locking him into lineups. The sophomore does offer some upside.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Limited to one field goal yet again

    Elliott made his lone field-goal attempt as well as both extra-point tries in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Browns.

    The good news is Elliott is perfect on field-goal attempts over the last three weeks. The bad news is he's only tried two. The Eagles offense simply isn't productive enough to make Elliott a fantasy-relevant kicker this season.

  • Matt Gay K | SF

    Rams' Matt Gay: Handling kicking duties Monday

    Gay will serve as the Rams' kicker Monday at Tampa Bay, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.

    Gay is making his season debut and will be the third kicker used by the Rams on the campaign. He joined L.A. last week in the wake of Kai Forbath (ankle) landing on injured reserve, but the question remained whether the team would elevate Austin MacGinnis from the practice squad instead. It has opted not to, leaving Gay to handle kicking duties in Week 12. Last season, Gay hit 27 of 35 field-goal attempts and 43 of 48 point-after tries as a member of the Bucs.

  • Cowboys' Greg Zuerlein: Likely to play Thursday

    Coach Mike McCarthy believes Zuerlein (back) will be available Thursday against Washington, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports. "He looks to be OK. He was here today," McCarthy said Monday. "I don't see him being in jeopardy of (not) playing on Thursday."

    Zuerlein tweaked his back during this past Sunday's win at Minnesota at the end of a kickoff. The injury caused the kicker to be listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report, putting him on track to uphold McCarthy's prediction. Zuerlein will have two more chances to prove his health before the Cowboys either clear him or give him a designation for Week 12.
