Jets kicker Nick Folk hit his only field-goal attempt Sunday, nailing a 52-yarder while adding three extra points in his team's 31-24 loss to the Packers. He's now converted all three of his field-goal attempts this season, with the shortest coming from 42 yards away.

Falcons kicker Matt Bryant, who kicked three field goals in Week 1, didn't have as many opportunities to contribute Week 2 at Cincinnati. He made his only field goal attempt -- a 46-yarder in the first quarter -- and also had one extra point.

Broncos kicker Brandon McManus converted his only field-goal attempt and all three of his extra points in his team's 24-17 win over the Chiefs in Week 2.

McManus didn't receive a field-goal try until late in the game, hitting from 20 yards out to extend the team's lead to seven points late in the fourth quarter. He's converted two short field-goal attempts in two weeks while filling in for Matt Prater. The Broncos travel to Seattle in Week 3.

Dolphins kicker Caleb Sturgis had a quiet game in Week 2's 29-10 loss to the Bills.

Sturgis connected on his only field-goal attempt of the game, from 34 yards, while added an extra point. He has yet to miss on five field-goal attempts this season, heading into Week 3 against the Chiefs. 

Saints placekicker Shayne Graham was perfect on a Sunday afternoon in which his team was far from it.

Graham booted a 27-yard field goal in his lone attempt and added three extra points in the loss to Cleveland.

Ravens kicker Justin Tucker picked up four field goals Week 2 against the Steelers.

Tucker got in a lot of work during the contest. After hitting an early extra point attempt, Tucker also nailed a 30 yard field goal to open the second quarter. After hitting his second extra point, Tucker got most of his work. On the Ravens next three drives, Tucker managed to hit three field goals. He hit from 20, 22 and 23 yards out. 

Tucker will take on the Browns Week 3. 

Broncos kicker Brandon McManus booted a 21-yard field goal and four PATs in the Week 1 win over the Colts. With Matt Prater suspended, McManus will be in the lineup again Week 2 when Denver hosts Kansas City.

Falcons kicker Matt Bryant came through in the clutch twice Week 1 against the Saints, kicking a 51-yard field goal as time expired to send the game to overtime and a 52-yard field goal in overtime to win it. He had three field goals in all, also hitting a 4-yarder in the second quarter. He also had four extra points.

He'll try to take advantage of the Falcons' high-scoring offense again Week 2 at Cincinnati.

Saints kicker Shayne Graham, who the team cut at the end of the preseason only to bring back for the start of the regular season, played an integral role Week 1 at Atlanta, going 2 for 2 on field goals and 4 for 4 on extra points. One of the field goals was a 50-yarder.

He should continue to benefit from the Saints' high-scoring offense Week 2 at Cleveland.

Panthers kicker Graham Gano scored eight points in a Week 1 victory over Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Gano nailed a 28-yard field goal as time expired in the first half. He missed a 48-yard attempt in the fourth quarter but bounced back with a 33-yard kick with 23 seconds remaining to put the game out of reach. He was 2 of 3 in field goal attempt, and converted two extra points in a 20-14 victory.
