Graham Gano K | NYG
Giants' Graham Gano: Misses kick in close loss
Gano made two of three field goals and his lone extra-point attempt in Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Bears.
Gano missed a 57-yard field goal wide left in the waning seconds of the first half, a mistake that is highlighted further by the Giants' four-point loss in which they were on the 10-yard line as time expired. Still, Gano has a strong track record, and his job won't be in jeopardy at this time. He'll look to bounce back in Week 3 versus the 49ers' depleted defense, although the Giants' offense will be without Saquon Barkley (knee) and possibly Sterling Shepard (toe) as well.

Nick Folk K | ATL
Patriots' Nick Folk: Misses long field goal
Folk made two of three field goals and all three extra points in Sunday's 35-30 loss to the Seahawks.
Folk sent a 51-yard field goal wide left late in the second quarter, a miss that had reprecussions on the final score. This comes after Folk misfired ona 45-yard attempt in Week 1. However, coach Bill Belichick reiterated Monday that "[Folk] is our kicker," according to Doug Kyed of NESN.com. Expect the veteran to be in the lineup for Week 3's showdown against the Raiders, but his leash could be getting shorter with rookie fifth-round pick Justin Rohrwasser on the practice squad.

Dustin Hopkins K | CLE
Football Team's Dustin Hopkins: Drills lone kick
Hopkins connected on a 24-yard field goal -- his lone kick -- in Sunday's 30-15 loss to the Cardinals.
The Football Team never got into field-goal range in the first half, and they entered halftime down 20-0. As a result, Hopkins was only afforded one field-goal try, as Washington attempted two-point conversions following both touchdowns in the fourth quarter. These sorts of game scripts won't be unusual for Washington this season, but considering the Browns have let up at least 30 points in both games this year, Hopkins could have a decent opportunity in Week 3.

Jason Myers K | SEA
Seahawks' Jason Myers: Drills five extra points
Myers made all five extra-point tries in Sunday's 35-30 win over the Patriots.
The Seahawks took three trips to the red zone, but Russell Wilson tossed a touchdown each time, adding two more deep TD passes as well. That meant Myers didn't get any field-goal opportunities in Week 2, although he was perfect on extra points. It's disappointing for fantasy managers, but the Seahawks are highly unlikely to sustain Sunday's red-zone efficiency, meaning Myers is likely due for positive regression in Week 3 versus the Cowboys.

Matt Prater K | BUF
Lions' Matt Prater: Misses from long distance
Prater missed his only field-goal attempt but converted all three extra-point tries during Sunday's 42-21 loss to Green Bay.
Detroit has struggled to move the ball in the absence of two key offensive pieces, receiver Kenny Golladay (hamstring) and lineman Halapoulivaati Vaitai (foot). Combined with the Lions' inability to find the end zone when they were able to get into scoring position Sunday, Prater ultimately wound up with a single field-goal attempt from 57 yards out, which he missed wide right. If Golladay and Vaitai are able to return in Week 3 -- which seems possible -- Prater could be in for a bounce-back performance against a Cardinals team that has pushed the tempo (79.5 offensive snaps per game) through two weeks into the 2020 campaign.

Tyler Bass K | BUF
Bills' Tyler Bass: Flawless Week 2
Bass connected on his only field-goal try -- a 39-yarder -- and made all four extra-point attempts in Sunday's win over Miami.
The field goal was ultimately the difference in the 31-28 win, as Bass looked a lot more comfortable than a shaky Week 1 that might have had some questioning why he was kept over longtime veteran Stephen Hauschka. Bass should have some leash as an actual draft pick -- rare for a kicker -- though playing for a team that should be in contention this season and having a number of important games will mean he'll have to produce like he did in Week 2.

Jason Sanders K | NYJ
Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Banks two long FGs in loss
Sanders converted both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 33-28 loss to the Bills.
Sanders made a kick from 52 yards just before halftime, and he then nailed his final try from 45 yards on the first drive of the fourth quarter. The third-year pro is perfect on the year through two contests, and he could see a slight uptick in opportunities against the Jaguars on Thursday if the contest evolves into a low-scoring affair.

Greg Zuerlein K | NYJ
Cowboys' Greg Zuerlein: Boots game-winning FG in Week 2
Zuerlein connected on both his field-goal attempts and all four of his PATs in Sunday's comeback win over the Falcons.
His final kick was clutch, as Zuerlein calmly drilled a 46-yard field goal with zeros on the clock to secure the improbable 40-39 victory. The 32-year-old is off to a solid start to his Dallas tenure, and he should continue to get plenty of scoring opportunities alongside one of the most talent-laden offenses in the NFL.

Joey Slye K | TEN
Panthers' Joey Slye: Makes all three kicks
Slye made his lone field-goal attempt as well as both his extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Buccaneers.
Slye, who missed an extra point in Week 1, was perfect on his three kicks Sunday, converting from 23 yards on his only field goal. Through two games, the second-year kicker now sports 15 points.

Chris Boswell K | PIT
Steelers' Chris Boswell: Perfect in win
Boswell made his lone field-goal attempt and a trio of extra-point tries in Pittsburgh's 26-21 win over Denver Sunday.
He converted two PATs and a 21-yard field goal that gave Pittsburgh a 17-3 halftime lead. He remained perfect on the day after halftime, making good on his one point-after attempt in the second half. Allowing a league-worst 12.5 points per game to opposing kickers, Week 3 opponent Houston makes Boswell a must-start option in all formats.
