Myers did not attempt a field goal, but converted all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 21-20 win over the Bengals.

Myers did all that was required of him to help the Seahawks squeak out a close victory. He'll hope Week 2's matchup against the Steelers affords him more scoring opportunities.

McManus converted his lone extra-point try and three of his four field-goal attempts in Monday's 24-16 loss to the Raiders.

The only miss for McManus happened when he tried to make a 64-yarder in the waning seconds of the first half. All three of the six-year-pro's successful field goals came from under 40 yards out, including two from under 30 yards away.

Carlson converted his lone field-goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries in Monday's victory over Denver.

Carlson was tendered by Oakland to an exclusive-rights contract in early March, and it seems to already be paying off for the Raiders. The 24-year-old set a franchise record for accuracy last season (94 percent), although he only attempted 17 field goals over 10 games.

Lutz made three of four field goal attempts and all three of his extra point attempts in the Saints' 30-28 win over the Texans on Monday.

Lutz was the hero of Monday's dramatic showdown, as he hit a career-long 58-yarder as time expired to lift the Saints to a two-point victory. He'll have plenty of chances for field goals and extra points in this high-octane offense, and he can be safely deployed as a top-12 option at his position each week.

Fairbairn successfully converted all four extra-point kicks in Monday's 30-28 loss to the Saints in Week 1.

Fairbairn narrowly escaped with his perfect night after the Saints were whistled for a roughing the kicker penalty on his final attempt. The infraction played no role in the miss, which Fairbairn pushed wide right with the game tied at 27-27, occurring after the kicker executed the kick unhindered. Given a second chance, the 25-year-old gave Houston a one-point lead before Drew Brees took the Saints downfield for a winning field goal. Fairbairn was the league-leader in field-goal attempts in 2018, but there were no such opportunities in the regular-season opener, as the Texans finished off all four drives that reached New Orleans' side of the field.

Head coach Anthony Lynn said Monday that Badgley (groin) has a chance to play in Sunday's Week 2 contest against Detroit, Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com reports.

Williams also notes that Lynn was pleased with fellow kicker Ty Long's performance Week 1. The kicker/punter hybrid converted all three of his extra-point attempts and his only field-goal attempt in Sunday's overtime win. Badgley was added to last week's injury report with a groin injury, an issue serious enough to keep him sidelined Sunday. If the second-year-pro can't play against the Lions in Week 2, Long would once again take over the kicking duties for Los Angeles.

Tucker connected on a 34-yard field goal attempt Sunday and converted all eight of his extra-point attempts.

The eight extra points won't be the norm, but it was encouraging nonetheless for Tucker to be perfect on what was an extremely busy day for the star kicker. Tucker returns home for Week 2 when the Ravens host the Cardinals. He was 19-for-20 on field goals, including a perfect 3-for-3 on attempts of 50 or more yards, at M&T Bank Stadium in 2018.

Butker made all four of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's victory over the Jaguars.

Coming off of a 2018 season that saw Butker pace the NFL in extra-point makes (65) by a wide margin, Butker picked up right where he left off in Week 1. His four field goals also matched the most he had in a game all of last season, so he's well on his way to outproducing his sophomore season.

Prater made both field-goal attempts and all three extra-point attempts in Sunday's 27-27 tie at Arizona.

Prater drilled a 55-yard field goal to start the scoring in the second quarter but didn't have a second chance at a field goal until overtime. The 35-year-old has been one of the more reliable long-range kickers in the league over the last few years, and that seems unlikely to change in 2019.

Gonzalez converted all four field-goal attempts and one extra-point attempt in Sunday's 27-27 tie against the Lions.

Gonzalez provided the Cardinals their only points until the fourth quarter, as he finished the day with field goals from 20, 28, 34 and 42 yards. Arizona had only 58 yards of offense during the first half, but the offense came alive during the fourth quarter to overcome a 24-6 deficit. The 24-year-old missed out on one PAT as the Cardinals had a successful two-point conversion in the final minute of regulation to force overtime. Baltimore's stifling defense awaits next week, making Gonzalez a riskier fantasy option in Week 2.
