Dustin Hopkins K | CLE
Redskins' Dustin Hopkins: Perfect in win
Hopkins made both his field-goal attempts (26 and 29 yards) as well as all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-11 win over the Broncos.
Hopkins has scored at least eight points in every game besides Week 1 this season. That makes him a reliable fantasy commodity heading into Sunday's season finale at the Giants.

Seahawks' Blair Walsh: Scores three points
Walsh did not attempt a field goal but made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 21-12 win over the Cowboys.
Walsh has gone back-to-back games without attempting a field goal, limiting his recent fantasy performances. With just 94 points on the season, however, owners shouldn't have been expecting too much from him.

Ka'imi Fairbairn K | HOU
Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Shut out in Week 16
Fairbairn did not have a scoring attempt in Monday's 34-6 loss to the Steelers.
Fairbairn was not called on for a scoring opportunity, as the Texans attempted a two-point conversion on their lone touchdown. He has just one point over the last two games and is suffering behind an unproductive offense. There's promise in Week 17 against Indianapolis' 31st-ranked scoring defense, but the offense is a mess and can't be trusted to present Fairbairn with many scoring chances.

Chris Boswell K | PIT
Steelers' Chris Boswell: Perfect in win
Boswell made both field-goal attempts (34, 36) and all four PATs in Monday's 34-6 win at Houston.
Few kickers have posted better numbers than Boswell this season but, for fantasy owners still playing in Week 17, consider that he has averaged just three points over his last two games against the Browns.
