Folk is dealing with a Grade 1 quadriceps strain and is not expected to play Thursday against the Bills, Newsday reports.

After suffering a quad injury in warm-ups in advance of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Folk was limited to holding duties, while punter Ryan Quigley served as the team's place-kicker in the contest. With Folk currently ailing, look for the Jets to sign another kicker in short order.

McManus connected on his lone field goal attempt, a 29-yarder, and was 3 for 3 on extra points Sunday against the Colts.

McManus' streak of kicking multiple field goals ends at four, as he's not 19-of-20 on the season, while also going 19-of-19 on extra points. The Broncos' offense hasn't been nearly as dominant this year as in season's past, but McManus is still likely to get enough opportunities to keep him a viable option in most fantasy formats. Up next is a Week 10 home game against the Chiefs.

Folk (quadriceps) was injured during pre-game warm-ups and never had a chance to kick Sunday against the Jaguars,

Folk is set to undergo an MRI on Monday. In his absence, Ryan Quigley took over kicking duties against the Jaguars, but it wouldn't be a surprise if the Jets worked out free agent kickers this week.

Folk (quadriceps) strained his quad during pregame warmups on Sunday.

Folk will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of the injury. The Jets may have to free up a roster spot to bring in a second kicker if Folk is not ready to go by Thursday's game against the Bills.

Folk (quadriceps) is not expected to be available for field goals or kickoffs, but will be the holder on kick attempts Sunday against the Jaguars, ESPN.com reports.

With Folk unable to kick, it wouldn't be a surprise to see the Jets pass up on longer field goal attempts during the rest of the game.

Barth was perfect on three field goal attempts in Sunday's 23-20 overtime victory over the Falcons, hitting from distances of 38, 23, and 31 yards. He also converted both of his extra-point attempts.

Barth's record in his second Bucs stint remains flawless, and his third field goal of the day, in overtime, turned out to be the game-winner. As expected, the veteran is a key part of an improving Bucs offense that is nevertheless still finding its way under rookie Jameis Winston.

Santos kicked just one field goal Sunday, knocking it home from 33 yards out, but also made six extra points against the Lions.

While one field goal generally winds up being a poor fantasy day for kickers, Santos' was at least respectable due to the large amount of PATs. The Chiefs offense benefited from facing an atrocious Lions team Sunday, so don't expect to see as many extra point attempts against a Broncos defense generally considered to be the best in the league currently.

Bryant made two chip-shot field goals and two extra points in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.

Both of his field goals were actually a shorter distance than his extra point attempts, as he hit from 24 yards and 21 yards. He has a nice matchup against the woeful 49ers in Week 9.

Coons went two for three on extra points in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, missing his first attempt of the season.

Coons was perfect from the field going into Sunday's game, but nobody is perfect - especially in sports. The Browns' offense rarely allows Coons to put points on the board, but when he does get a shot, he more often than not sinks his attempts. However, Coons' missed extra point attempt doesn't change much - because the Browns don't put him in a position to score often - Coons is not as valuable as many other kickers from a fantasy standpoint.

Walsh made all three field-goal attempts, including a game-winning 36-yard field goal as time expired, in Sunday's win over Chicago. He also made both two extra-point attempts.

After struggling in the preseason and in the team's first few games (missing two field goals and an extra point), Walsh has turned his season around the past three games. He's make all 11 field goal attempts the past three games including six from 40 yards or more.
