  • Nick Folk K | NYJ

    Jets kicker Nick Folk makes 2 of 3 field goals Week 4

    Jets kicker Nick Folk made 2 of 3 field goals Sunday against the Dolphins.

    Folk missed a field goal from 40-yards, keeping him from producing a double-digit performance. However, he was good from 48 yards, and he also hit a 22-yarder. In addition, he made good on each of his three extra point attempts.

  • Josh Scobee out as Steelers kicker; team signs Chris Boswell

    Kicker Josh Scobee has lost his job as the Steelers' kicker, Pro Football Talk's Michael David Smith reports.

    He missed two field goals in the fourth quarter Thursday and is 3-for-7 on field goals beyond 40 yards this year, so it is not surprising that the Steelers are making a change. Chris Boswell will sign with the team Saturday to become the new kicker.

  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Chiefs K Cairo Santos limited to two extra points in Week 3

    Chiefs kicker Cairo Santos didn't attempt any field goals Monday against the Packers, but he did make both of his extra point tries.

    Santos has attempted just four field goals and seven extra points through three weeks this season, placing him below average among kickers. The Chiefs face another tough opponent in the Bengals on Sunday, but defensive stops for Cincinnati could lead to more field goal attempts for Santos.

  • Rams K Greg Zuerlein accounts for the team's scoring in Week 3

    Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein hit both of his field goals as the Rams fell to the Steelers 12-6 on Sunday. 

    Zuerlein has yet to miss an attempt this season, making five field goals and five extra points. Twenty points in three games is not going to do a ton for anyone's fantasy team, but he would be a decent option if St. Louis ever gets its offense together.

  • Travis Coons K | LAR

    Browns kicker Travis Coons make two FGs in Week 3 loss

    Browns kicker Travis Coons converted both field goal attempts (41, 24) and went 2 for 2 on extra points in Sunday's loss to the Raiders.

    Coons continues to prove he was the man for the job in Cleveland after fighting for it during camp, as he has yet to miss any kick this year. Sunday afternoon represented his best scoring output of the season, as the 23-year-old was able to rack up eight total points.

  • Zach Hocker K | TB

    Saints kicker Zach Hocker makes both of his kicks Week 3

    Saints kicker Zach Hocker made his only field goal attempt, a 31-yard kick, in the first quarter of Sunday's loss to the Panthers. He also converted an extra-point try.

    After a game to forget in Week 2, in which he missed a field goal and had an extra point blocked, Hocker was successful on both his tries in Week 3. The solid showing may improve Hocker's job security, but the inexperienced kicker is hardly out of the woods yet.

    Further, with the Saints' offense currently sputtering, Hocker is probably no better than a middling option among kickers.

  • Graham Gano K | NYG

    Panthers kicker Graham Gano finishes with nine points Week 3

    Panthers kicker Graham Gano made both of his field goal attempts and all three extra points en route to nine points against the Saints.

    Gano converted from 20 and 47 yards on his respective field goal kicks Sunday, which marked his first performance without a miss this season. Additionally, Gano's nine points gave him a new single-game-high through the first three weeks of the campaign.

  • Nick Folk K | NYJ

    Jets kicker Nick Folk converts one field goal Sunday

    Jets kicker Nick Folk kicked a 53-yard field goal Sunday against the Eagles. Folk also made each of his two extra point attempts to give him five points in the game.

    The 53-yard kick was his longest this season, and he now has connected on four of his five field goal attempts this year.

  • Ravens kicker Justin Tucker remains perfect through two weeks

    Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has been perfect thus far, going 6 for 6 and making all four of his extra point chances this season.

    Tucker has been one of the most consistent kickers since entering the league in 2012 and that hasn't changed a bit this year as Tucker has made the most out of his opportunities.

    While the Ravens offense hasn't found its way in the endzone very often this year, they've been able to move up and down the field enough to provide Tucker some decent fantasy value. He remains one of the safest kickers in all of fantasy football.

  • Nick Folk K | NYJ

    Jets K Nick Folk connects on two field goals in Week 2 win

    Jets kicker Nick Folk made two field goals and two points after touchdown Monday against the Colts.

    Folk connected on kicks of 35 and 46 yards, but missed a 48 yard attempt wide right. His eight- point effort was solid, but the missed kick kept him from recording a double-digit night.
