    Browns' Travis Coons: Had two field goals in loss to Rams

    Coons stayed perfect on the season, sinking two field goals in Sunday's loss to the Rams.

    Coons is 14/14 on field goal attempts through the first seven games, and 11/11 on extra point attempts. While he is a solid option at kicker, there are many in line ahead of him in most fantasy leagues due to a stagnant Browns offense that seldom allows for his amazing prowess in the kicking game.

  • Rams' Greg Zuerlein: Struggling with accuracy

    Zuerlein missed a pair of field goals and made a third attempt in Sunday's 24-6 win against Cleveland.

    One of those misses was excusable, as it was a 63-yard attempt, but he also missed a 35-yarder. He has now missed five field goals in his last two weeks and seems to have lost his early-season confidence.

    Panthers' Graham Gano: Perfect Week 7 performance

    Gano converted both of his field goal attempts and all three extra point tries en route to nine points against the Eagles on Sunday night.

    Gano's pair of field goals both came during the fourth quarter, from 35 and 29 yards, respectively. In doing so, Gano brought his season conversion rate to 10-of-13 field goals. With 18-of-19 extra point tries successful as well, Gano totes 48 points on the campaign.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Remains perfect in loss

    Boswell converted his two field goal attempts (24, 36) and his lone extra point attempt Sunday against the Chiefs.

    Boswell remained perfect on the season, and is now 7-of-7 on field goal attempts and 5-of-5 on point after attempts. He has an attractive match-up against division rival Cincinnati in Week 9, against whom Pittsburgh has scored 99 points in their last three meetings.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: Misses another field goal

    Tucker made two of his three field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the 49ers.

    Tucker probably has the longest leash of any kicker in the NFL, and he's still 11-for-14 on field-goal attempts this season, with two of the misses coming from beyond 50 yards and the other from 40-49. The Ravens may not be good enough to win games, but the offense has at least been competent enough for Tucker to remain a top-10 kicker. He does get a tough matchup this week, with the Ravens traveling to Arizona.

    Browns' Travis Coons: Five total points in defeat

    Coons converted his only field goal try (26 yards) and went 2-for-2 on extra point attempts in Sunday's loss to the Broncos.

    Coons remained perfect on the season, but didn't really have a lot of opportunities to break his streak. The Denver defense largely kept the Browns' offense in check, which limited the output of the kicking game. Coons will be kicking in a dome when the Browns head to St. Louis for a Week 7 contest against the Rams.

  • Zach Hocker K | TB

    PK Zach Hocker released by Saints

    Placekicker Zach Hocker has been released by the Saints, reports Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports.

    Hocker becomes the latest kicker casualty, as his release comes after missing four of his 13 field goal attempts and sending an extra point awry as well. Most recently, Hocker went 1 for 3 on field goals Thursday against the Falcons, ultimately costing him a roster spot.

  • Broncos' Brandon McManus: Accounts for 14 points in win

    McManus went 4-for-5 on his field goal attempts, connecting from 29, 25, 39 and 34 yards while missing from 51 at the end of the first half, and 2-for-2 on extra points Sunday against the Browns.

    McManus' miss was his first this season, and he's a solid 16-for-17 through six games, though fantasy owners will have to look elsewhere in Week 7, as the Broncos are off before facing the Packers in Week 8.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Four field goals in win

    Boswell converted 4-of-4 field goals (28, 47, 48, 51) and made his only extra point attempt in the Steelers' 25-13 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    It only took the Steelers four tries to find their kicker, with Boswell going a perfect 5-of-5 on field goals and 4-of-4 on extra points in two games. He'll have a favorable matchup in Week 7 against the Chiefs, who have allowed opposing kickers to score 41 points in six games (6.8 PPG).

  • Nick Folk K | NYJ

    Jets' Nick Folk: Scores 10 points

    Folk connected on 2-of-3 field goal attempts along with four extra points Sunday against Washington.

    His field goals were from 35 and 39 yards, but his only miss was short from 49 yards away. The Jets have been able to move the ball well on offense this season, and now he's had multiple field goal attempts in three of his last four games.
