Dolphins kicker Caleb Sturgis knocked down all three his field goal attempts in his team's 20-16 defeat to Detroit in Week 10.

Sturgis nailed a 23-yard kick in the second quarter, followed by a 50-yard shot in the third quarter. He drilled a 20-yard kick with 4:19 remaining in the game to out the team ahead by three points, before Matthew Stafford marched his team down for the game-winning score. Sturgis also added two extra points, finishing the game with 10 points.

Ravens kicker Justin Tucker finished with a season-low three points during a 21-7 win Week 10 vs. Tennessee. Tucker attempted no field goals and converted all three of his extra-point attempts.

Sunday was the first time all season Tucker didn't attempt a field goal. He has totaled five or less points in two straight games.

The Ravens are on a bye Week 11 before returning to action Week 12 at New Orleans.

Lions kicker Matt Prater knocked down a pair of field goals in his team's win over Miami in Week 10.

Prater converted a 26-yard kick in the opening quarter. He had his second attempt blocked, but bounced back with a 50-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to tie the game with 12:02 remaining. He converted 2 of 3 field foal attempts and added two extra points in a 20-16 victory. He has knocked down 5 of his last 6 field goal attempts in the past two games.

Chiefs rookie kicker Cairo Santos hit a 36-yard field goal and two PATs in Sunday's win at Buffalo. He's 12 of 14 on field goals this year. Santos plays the Seahawks in Week 11.

Linebacker Nate Irving (knee) is the lone Broncos player ruled out for the Sunday game in Oakland. Only running back Montee Ball (groin), tackle Paul Cornick (shoulder) and tight end Virgil Green (calf) are questionable.

The probables are headlined by wideout Wes Welker (back). The others are safety Quinton Carter (hamstring), linebacker Steven Johnson (ankle), kicker Brandon McManus (groin) and running back Juwan Thompson (knee).

Ravens kicker Justin Tucker made his only field-goal attempt Sunday and added two extra points in his team's 43-23 loss to the Steelers in Week 9.

Tucker was successful from 46 yards out in the second quarter, but he wasn't given much else to do in the blowout loss. He's 19 for 22 on field goals for the season but has made all six of his attempts over the last three weeks. He'll square off with the Titans in Week 10.

Broncos kicker Brandon McManus missed his only field goal chance Week 9.

McManus missed from 41 yards out in the second quarter. He did not receive another opportunity at a field goal during the contest. McManus did manage three extra point attempts, though.

He'll look for more Week 10 against the Raiders. 

Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein made both of his field-goal attempts Sunday and added one extra point in his team's 13-10 win over the 49ers in Week 9.

Zuerlein answered a 49ers' first-quarter field goal with one of his own from 37 yards out. His next shot came with five-and-a-half minutes left in the game, when he delivered from 39 yards out to break a 10-10 tie and give his team a lead that the Rams wouldn't relinquish. Zuerlein had missed his only field-goal attempt in each of his previous two games before turning in a perfect performance Sunday. He'll square off with the Cardinals in Arizona in Week 10.

Chiefs kicker Cairo Santos finished with six points during a 24-10 win Week 9 vs. N.Y. Jets. Santos converted a 19-yard field goal in the fourth quarter and three extra points.

Santos has finished with less than 10 points just twice in the last five games. The Chiefs are back in action Week 10 at Buffalo.

Jets kicker Nick Folk kicked one field goal and finished with four points during a 24-10 loss Week 9 at Kansas City. Folk made a 39-yard field goal as time expired in the first half.

Folk has managed five or less points in five of his last six games. The Jets are back in action Week 10 vs. Pittsburgh.
