  • Redskins' Dustin Hopkins: Remains perfect

    Hopkins converted all three extra-point attempts in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys.

    Hopkins now has made both field-goal attempts and all six extra-point tries this season. The Redskins will host the Bears, who have allowed three field goals and 24 points over the first two games, in Week 3.

  • Rams' Greg Zuerlein: Perfect in win over Saints

    Zuerlein converted on both field goals and all three extra points in Sunday's win over the Saints.

    Zuerlein wasn't truly tested in this outing, as his field goals came from 24 and 22 yards -- shorter than the extra points. He has now made five of six field goals and all six extra points, and he'll look to continue that success against the Browns in Week 3.

  • Cardinals' Zane Gonzalez: Nails trio of short kicks

    Gonzalez converted all three field-goal attempts but didn't try an extra point in Sunday's loss to the Ravens.

    Two of Gonzalez's field goals came from 21 yards and another came from 22. Although the Cardinals did score a touchdown, game flow called for a two-point conversion so Gonzalez was left on the sideline. Gonzalez has now made all seven field goals this year and his only extra point.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Rides bench Week 2

    Sanders did not attempt a field goal or extra-point try during Sunday's 43-0 loss to the Patriots.

    Sanders fell victim to a second straight blowout, with New England running up the score so high Sunday that the Dolphins could not consider attempting a field goal. Nor was the team able to reach the end zone, resulting in Sanders being kept off the scoreboard entirely. The second-year pro won't warrant fantasy consideration until Miami's offense achieves some sort of consistency.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Misses 58-yard try

    Myers made all four extra points but missed a 58-yard field-goal attemptl in Sunday's 28-26 win over the Steelers.

    This was Myers' first field-goal attempt of the season, and it was a lengthy one. Myers had the leg to get it there, but he pushed it wide left as time expired in the first half. He has still converted all seven extra points this year.

  • Brett Maher K | LAR

    Cowboys' Brett Maher: Perfect in Week 2 win

    Maher connected on his lone field-goal attempt and all four of his extra points in Sunday's win over Washington.

    The field goal was a 25-yard chip shot, so the second-year kicker remains relatively untested on the year, but Maher has been perfect nonetheless -- 1-for-1 on FGs and 9-for-9 on PATs. With the Dallas offense looking explosive in the early going, there should be plenty of opportunities for Maher to rack up points as the season progresses.

  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Saints' Wil Lutz: Perfect on three attempts

    Lutz made all three of his field-goal attempts in the Saints' 27-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday.

    For the second week in a row, Lutz hit a 50-yarder, with his makes coming from 34, 42, and 52 yards out. He was the Saints' only source of offense on a day where the team couldn't move the ball downfield, particularly after Drew Brees (hand) exited. Lutz is an elite option at kicker each week, given his accuracy and range.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Has first field-goal attempts

    Fairbairn converted both field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Sundays' 13-12 win over the Jaguars in Week 2.

    Fairbairn was not called upon to attempt a field goal in Week 1, so these two attempts were his first of the season. He remains perfect after two weeks, nailing all seven of his kicks (five extra points, two field goals), although he was bailed out on an extra-point miss in Week 1 by a penalty.

  • Matt Bryant K | ATL

    Falcons' Matt Bryant: Misses one kick in Sunday night win

    Bryant went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his point-after tries during Sunday's 24-20 win against Philadelphia.

    The 44-year-old placekicker sunk his first field-goal try of 2019 by knocking down a 50-yard attempt on Atlanta's first drive of the night. He pulled another 50-yarder wide left later in the contest, only to see Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz gift the ball right back to the Falcons with an interception on the subsequent play. Week 3 brings a matchup against an Indianapolis defense that's conceded just five field-goal attempts over its past five regular and postseason games.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Titans' Cairo Santos: Misses first field goal

    Santos made of one of his two field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in Week 2 against Indianapolis.

    While Santos made the majority of his kicks on the day, his missed field goal was very costly. With 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, he was called upon to convert a 45-yard field goal to put the Titans up seven, however, he pushed the kick wide left -- ultimately allowing Indianapolis to take the lead late in the game. Nevertheless, he's made three of his four field-goal attempts for the season and is perfect in converting seven extra points.
