The Giants elevated Crosby from the practice squad Saturday in advance of Sunday's game versus the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

Crosby thus will serve as the Giants' placekicker for a third straight contest to end the campaign. On the first two occasions, he struck true on three of four field-goal attempts and three of four point-after tries.

Patterson was elevated to the Browns' active roster Saturday.

Patterson is set to kick for the Browns in the regular-season finale versus the Bengals, as Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) has been ruled out. The 24-year-old Patterson was with the Lions for the first 13 games of the season, where he converted 15 of 17 field goals and 35 of 37 extra points.

Hopkin (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Hopkins will sit out a second consecutive game to close out the regular season. Riley Patterson filled in for him in Week 17 and will likely do so again Sunday, while Hopkins will set his sights on trying to heal up in time for the wild-card round of the playoffs after making 33 of 36 field-goal attempts in the regular season.

Pineiro (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Pineiro failed to practice in any capacity throughout the week and is unlikely to play in Sunday's season finale. Matthew Wright will be elevated from the practice squad to replace Pineiro if Carolina's usual kicker is inactive for the contest, as expected. Pineiro has made 25 of 29 field-goal attempts this season.

Hopkins (hamstring) did not participate at the Browns' practice Thursday.

Hopkins remained sidelined Thursday, and he's yet to return to practice following the hamstring injury he suffered in Week 16 against the Texans. At this point, it seems like Riley Patterson will operate at Cleveland's starting kicker again in Week 18 versus Cincinnati.

Pineiro (hamstring) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Pineiro wasn't able to handle his usual placekicking duties this past Sunday at Jacksonville after experiencing some tightness in his right hamstring in pregame warmups. He's yet to practice this week, and if the Panthers end up ruling him out for Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, the team has an insurance policy in Matthew Wright on the practice squad.

Pineiro (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Pineiro didn't see the field in this past Sunday's loss to the Jaguars after experiencing hamstring tightness in warmups, and the injury continues to bother him as the Panthers prepare to host the Buccaneers in Sunday's season finale. Carolina signed Matthew Wright to the practice squad as insurance Tuesday, so Wright would handle kicking duties if Pineiro is unable to play this weekend.

Hopkins (hamstring) didn't participate in practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Hopkins missed the Browns' win versus the Jets in Week 17 due to the left hamstring issue, which is now also putting his availability for Week 18 in question. He'll probably need to practice Thursday or Friday to have a chance to play in Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Bengals.

Moody made both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Commanders.

Moody hit field goals from 38 and 22 yards. With only Sunday's finale versus the Rams remaining, Moody ranks 10th among kickers with 121 points.

Gay made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Raiders.

Gay converted field goals from 40, 38 and 33 yards. With three games of double-digit points over his last five outings, Gay's tally of 125 on the season ranks eighth among kickers heading into Week 18.
