Greg Zuerlein K | NYJ
Rams' Greg Zuerlein: Questionable to play Cardinals
Zuerlein (groin) is considered doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, ESPN's Nick Wagoner reports.
Zuerlein's groin injury prevented him from practicing both Wednesday and Thursday, casting doubt over his status again this week. If he's unavailable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, expect Zach Hocker to serve as the Rams' kicker.

Jaguars' Jason Myers: Listed as probable for Sunday
Myers (back) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Myers will be out there if you need him this weekend and is an option for those looking for a boost at kicker, having recorded double-digit points (11,10, 13 and 13) in each of his last four games.

Falcons' Shayne Graham: To kick Sunday
Graham will serve as the Falcons' kicker once again this Sunday against the Buccaneers, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Graham will once again fill in for the injured Matt Bryant (quad), who has already been ruled out for Sunday's NFC South showdown. In his Falcons debut last weekend, Graham made one field goal and one extra point.

Matt Prater K | BUF
Lions' Matt Prater: Expected to play Thursday
Prater (illness) is expected to play Thursday against the Packers, Albert Breer of NFL Network reports.
Prater signaled that a return was possible with a limited practice session Wednesday, and considering the Lions haven't inked another kicker to the 53-man roster, he seems poised to fulfill his typical game-day duties. After being presented with just three field goals over the first five contests, he's knocked through all 11 chances in the past six outings.

Greg Zuerlein K | NYJ
Rams' Greg Zuerlein: Misses practice Wednesday
Zuerlein (groin) missed practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Zuerlein's recovery effort from a groin injury has extended into this week, which could place kicking duties on the right leg of Zach Hocker for a second game in a row Sunday versus the Cardinals. However, Zuerlein could end the suspense by making an appearance at practice either Thursday or Friday.

Jaguars' Jason Myers: Practices in limited fashion
Myers (back) was limited in practice Wednesday, John Oehser of jaguars.com reports.
The Jaguars learned about Myers' injury Monday after the kicker informed the team about a lingering back ailment, although it's unclear when the 24-year-old rookie may have suffered the injury. As of now, it seems as if Myers will be able to play in the Jaguars' upcoming contest against the Titans, but the team may look into bringing in another kicker.

Matt Bryant K | ATL
Falcons' Matt Bryant: No practice Wednesday
Bryant (quadriceps) didn't practice Wednesday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.
Bryant has yet to take part in any drills since injuring his right quadriceps in last Wednesday's practice. If he fails to make the requisite progress by the end of the week, the Falcons will likely turn to Shayne Graham to handle kicking duties Sunday at Tampa Bay.
