  • Mason Crosby K | NYG

    Giants' Mason Crosby: Moves back to practice squad

    The Giants reverted Crosby to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Crosby has been New York's gameday kicker each of the past two weeks, going 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-4 on extra-point tries over that span. The veteran missed a 54-yard field-goal attempt late in the fourth quarter that could have won the game for the Giants on Sunday, but he did drill a 52-yarder Week 16 against Philadelphia. Unless New York opts to look for another option ahead of its final game of the season Sunday versus the Eagles, Crosby will likely kick for the team again in that contest.

  • Nick Folk K | TEN

    Titans' Nick Folk: Makes lone attempt

    Folk made his lone field-goal attempt in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans. He did not attempt an extra point.

    The Titans struggled to move the ball and had minimal scoring opportunities in Sunday's loss. As a result, Folk was only called upon once, though he did manage to convert. He's now been limited to one or fewer attempts in five of his last seven games.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Makes all five kicks vs. Pittsburgh

    Myers made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Steelers.

    All three of Myers' field goals came in the second half when he connected from 24, 42 and 43 yards out. He's converted on 82.5 percent of his field-goal tries this season and has made all of his kicks in four straight games. Myers is tied with Dustin Hopkins for the second-most made field goals this season.

  • Mike Badgley K | DET

    Lions' Michael Badgley: Converts two field goals

    Badgley converted both of his field-goal attempts and his lone PAT during Saturday's 20-19 loss to Dallas.

    After missing an extra-point try last week in Minnesota, Badgley redeemed himself with a flawless game that could have been bigger if not for Detroit's aggressiveness on fourth down and two-point attempts. The strong-legged Badgley will again have some upside as a fantasy option when the Lions' high-powered offense returns home for a regular-season finale against the Vikings in Week 18.

  • Steelers' Chris Boswell: Productive in Week 17

    Boswell converted all three of his field-goal attempts while making all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 30-23 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

    Boswell didn't have any field-goal attempts over 39 yards during Sunday's matchup, but he was still perfect on six kicks for a second consecutive week. The 32-year-old has been reliable for most of the 2023 campaign, converting 28 of 30 field-goal attempts while making 25 of 26 extra-point tries.

  • Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Another perfect effort Saturday

    Aubrey converted both his field-goal attempts and both his extra-point attempts in a Week 17 win over the Lions.

    Neither field goal was a chip shot, either, as the rookie kicker drilled a 51-yarder just before halftime before giving Dallas its final points with a 43-yard FG inside the final two minutes of the fourth. Aubrey has already made history by going 35-for-35 on field goals to begin his NFL career, but he's closing in on tying or even surpassing Mike Vanderjagt's perfect 37-for-37 season with the Colts in 2003, which is the record for most conversions in a season without missing a field goal. Aubrey also needs just two more points in Week 18 to set a new rookie record for a season, which would put him ahead of Cody Parkey's 150 for the Eagles in 2014.

  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Kicks field goal in loss

    McPherson made a field goal and two extra-point attempts in Sunday's 25-17 loss to the Chiefs.

    McPherson's lone FGA came from 34 yards out on the Bengals' opening drive, which gave them a 3-0 lead. He chipped in two PATs in the second quarter, but other than the kickoff to open the second half, the Flordia product didn't take the field again, as Cincinnati was shut out the rest of the way. Next up for McPherson and the Bengals is a Week 18 divisional clash with the Browns.

  • Matt Prater K | ARI

    Cardinals' Matt Prater: Makes two in win

    Prater connected on both of his field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 35-31 win over the Eagles.

    Prated made a 28-yard field goal in the first quarter and was good again from 34 yards out in the second, which was all the Cardinals' scoring in the first half. The 39-year-old then contributed successful PATs on three of Arizona's second-half touchdowns.

  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Patriots' Chad Ryland: Misses lone FG attempt Sunday

    Ryland missed his only field-goal attempt and made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-21 loss to the Bills.

    Ryland's miss in the contest was from 47 yards out, and overall the rookie kicker has made 15 of his 24 field-goal tries and 24 of his 25 extra-point opportunities through 16 games. As the Patriots' season finale against the Jets approaches, Ryland profiles as a risky fantasy lineup option in Week 18.

  • Joey Slye K | NE

    Commanders' Joey Slye: Makes field goal in loss

    Slye made his only field-goal attempt and extra-point try in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the 49ers.

    Washington scored all 10 of its points in the second quarter, first on a 47-yard field goal from Slye and then via a Terry McLaurin touchdown catch that Slye followed with an extra point. The Commanders close out the season by hosting the Cowboys in Week 18.
