The Dolphins released Patterson Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Miami will part ways with Patterson coming out of its Week 6 bye, after the kicker converted on seven of nine field-goal tries and five of six extra-point attempts through the team's first five games. Per NFL reporter Jordan Schultz, the Dolphins are expected to replace Patterson with Zane Gonzalez, who worked out for the team Tuesday and will be signed either to 53-man roster or practice squad.

Elliott made both of his extra-point attempts during the Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

With Jalen Hurts (calf) out for the year, Sunday was the Eagles' first game with Tanner McKee under center. The offense labored to get up and down the field, and it was the fifth time in six games that Elliott attempted zero or one field goals. Week 7 against the Cowboys on Monday, Oct. 26 could be a better night offensively for the Eagles, given that Dallas' defense ranks in the bottom-3 in the league in yards allowed per game.

Folk made his sole PAT in the Falcons' 31-23 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

Folk attempted no field goals and kicked just one PAT in the loss. The kicker is still 9-for-12 on field-goal attempts and remains a perfect 13-for-13 on PATs through six regular-season contests in 2026.

Szmyt went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made his only PAT during Sunday's 13-10 win over the Ravens.

Szmyt made multiple field goals for the fifth week in a row. The kicker made his first try from 48 yards in the third quarter before missing another 48-yard try wide left with 3:44 left in regulation. Szmyt was able to get the last laugh though, nailing a game-winning 37-yard field goal as time expired in the fourth quarter. On the year, Szmyt has gone 12-for-13 on field-goal tries while making eight of nine extra-point attempts over six games.

Dicker made both of his field-goal attempts in the Chargers' 22-6 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.

Dicker's 23-yard and 30-yard field goals were the only points scored by the Chargers in the team's blowout loss. While the offense could not get going, Dicker remained reliable. The 26-year-old moves to 9-for-11 on field-goal attempts and a perfect nine-for-nine on extra-point attempts over six regular-season games in 2026.

Borregales made both of his field-goal attempts and went 2-for-3 on extra-point tries during the Patriots' 26-19 win over the Jets on Sunday.

All of Borregales' kick attempts came from within 35 yards, with his longest field goal coming from 32 yards. He missed his first extra point of the season, and through six games he has gone 8-for-10 on field-goal attempts and 14-for-15 on extra-point tries. The Patriots will operate on a short practice week ahead of Thursday's road tilt against the Bears.

Zvada made both of his field-goal attempts and his sole PAT in the Giants' 34-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Zvada had a strong Week 6 bounceback after going 2-for-5 on field-goal attempts in Week 5. The kicker made 30-yard and 41-yard field goals in the loss, so he still may struggle with distance and consistency as the season continues.

Gay converted all three of his field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries during Las Vegas' loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Gay had a strong outing despite the loss, as he was perfect kicking the ball, although all of his kicks came from close range, with his longest being 35 yards out. The 32-year-old has gotten off to a strong start this season, converting 14 of his 15 field-goal attempts and all 14 extra-point tries across his first six outings.

Santos made one of his two field-goal attempts and all four PATs in the Bears' 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Santos missed a 56-yard field-goal attempt in the second quarter before redeeming himself with a 50-yard make in the fourth quarter. The kicker is now 8-for-11 on field-goal attempts and a perfect 18-for-18 on PATs over six regular-season games in 2026.

Shrader made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his PATs in the Colts' 26-20 loss to the Titans on Sunday.

While the Colts' story of the day was a special teams failure due to a blocked punt returned for a Titans touchdown, Shrader had no part in the error. The kicker made 23-yard and 43-yard attempts in the contest that kept the game close. Shrader is a perfect 18-for-18 on field-goal attempts and 12-for-13 on PATs through six regular-season contests in 2026.
