Eddy Pineiro K | SF
49ers' Eddy Pineiro: Connects on all four field goals
Pineiro made all four of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try during the 49ers' 30-19 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Three of Pineiro's four field goals came in the first half -- two of which were from 50-plus yards -- which helped keep the 49ers in striking distance heading into halftime. He connected on a 29-yard chip shot midway through the third quarter to cut the deficit to one point, but he wasn't brought out to kick after that, as the 49ers offense sputtered down the stretch. Pineiro has connected on four field goals in back-to-back games and is a perfect 15-for-15 across five regular-season contests. Pineiro and the 49ers will head back to San Francisco to host the Falcons on Sunday, Oct. 19.

Lucas Havrisik K | GB
Packers' Lucas Havrisik: Filling in for McManus in Week 6
Havrisik will serve as the Packers' placekicker Sunday against the Bengals with Brandon McManus (right quadriceps) inactive for the contest, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.
McManus tweaked his right quad at Wednesday's session and then was limited in practice throughout Week 6 prep. The situation spurred the Packers to host tryouts for Havrisik and Greg Joseph on Thursday, and the team signed the former to the active roster one day later. Now that McManus is confirmed to be inactive, Havrisik will fill in for him. Havrisik last kicked in the NFL in 2023 for the Rams, with whom he connected on 15 of 20 field-goal attempts and 19 of 22 point-after tries in nine appearances.

Brandon McManus K | GB
Packers' Brandon McManus: Inactive in Week 6
McManus (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
McManus tweaked his right quadriceps at Wednesday's practice and went down as a limited participant on all three of the Packers' Week 6 injury reports. The Packers held tryouts for kickers Greg Joseph and Lucas Havrisik on Thursday, and the team signed the latter to the active roster Saturday as insurance in the event McManus couldn't go this weekend. Now that McManus has been confirmed to be unavailable, he'll hand off placekicking duties to Havrisik for at least one contest.

Jets' Nick Folk: Perfect in London
Folk made all three of his field-goal tries during the Jets' 13-11 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
The Jets offense struggled to move the ball down the field Sunday, but Folk helped New York keep pace with field goals from 52, 41 and 38 yards. His three made field goals were his most in a game in 2025, and the veteran kicker has converted on all 12 of his field-goal attempts and all seven of his extra-point tries through the first six games of the regular season.
