Cairo Santos K | CHI
Bears' Cairo Santos: Makes all six kicks on SNF
Santos made his lone field-goal attempt and all five PATs in Sunday night's 42-38 loss to the 49ers.
Chicago and San Francisco were trading punches all night on offense. Santos' lone field goal was good from 29 yards, and his five PATs tied a season-high mark from Week 9 against the Bengals. On the year, Santos has made 25 of 30 field-goal tries and all 39 of his extra points.

Andre Szmyt K | CLE
Browns' Andre Szmyt: Converts two FGAs in victory
Szmyt went 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and made his only PAT in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Steelers.
Szmyt was able to make multiple field goals for the second straight week, converting a 50-yarder in the first quarter before later adding a 33-yard make in the fourth. The kicker has now gone 22-for-25 on field-goal attempts, including 6-for-7 from 50-plus yards, while making 23 of 24 extra-point tries over 16 contests in his first NFL campaign.

Nick Folk K | NYJ
Jets' Nick Folk: Makes both kicks in Week 17
Folk made his lone field-goal attempt and his only PAT in Sunday's 42-10 loss to the Patriots.
Folk's field goal was good from 39 yards. That was just about the extent of his action, as the Jets once again failed to threaten the end zone for much of the afternoon. Through 16 games this season, Folk is 28-for-29 on field goals and a perfect 22-for-22 on extra points.

Ryan Fitzgerald K | CAR
Panthers' Ryan Fitzgerald: Converts only FGA in loss
Fitzgerald made his only field-goal attempt and extra-point try in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Seahawks.
Fitzgerald was limited to one field-goal attempt for the third time in the last four contests and eighth time overall this season, converting a 35-yard try in the second quarter. The rookie kicker has now gone 24-for-28 on field-goal tries, including 2-for-4 from 50-plus yards, while making 25 of 28 PATs over 16 contests.

Daniel Carlson K | LV
Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Makes pair of kicks in loss
Carlson made his lone field-goal attempt and only PAT in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants.
Carlson's field goal was good from 42 yards. Kicking in Las Vegas' anemic offense, Carlson has made just 18 of 23 field-goal tries and 21 of 22 PATs across 16 games this season. The tanking Raiders again figure to try hard to lose in Week 18 to the Chiefs.

Jake Elliott K | PHI
Eagles' Jake Elliott: Nails two FGAs in narrow win
Elliott made both his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Bills.
Elliott was able to conquer the heavy rain in Buffalo, converting field goals from 47 and 28 yards in the second quarter. It was just the second time in the last six contests that the kicker has made multiple field goals. Elliott has now gone 19-for-26 on field-goal tries, including 4-for-8 from 50-plus yards, while making 39 of 40 PATs over 16 games this year.

Blake Grupe K | IND
Colts' Blake Grupe: Perfect again in Week 17 loss
Grupe made his lone field-goal attempt and both PATs in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Jaguars.
Grupe's field goal was good from 33 yards. In four games since signing with the Colts following his ouster from New Orleans, Grupe has righted the ship on his 2025 season and is a perfect 8-for-8 on field goals and 7-for-7 on extra points. He gets a tough Week 18 matchup with Houston.
-
Riley Patterson K | MIA
Dolphins' Riley Patterson: Makes all four kicks in win
Patterson made both of his field-goal attempts and both PATs in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bucs.
Patterson converted field goals from 29 and 31 yards. Through 16 games as Miami's kicker this season, Patterson has made 26 of 28 field-goal tries and 33 of 34 extra-point attempts. He won't be an exciting fantasy kicker next Sunday on the road against the Patriots.
-
Mike Badgley K | BUF
Bills' Michael Badgley: Misses PAT in Week 17 loss
Badgley missed his lone extra-point attempt in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles.
Buffalo was held scoreless until deep into the fourth quarter, and Badgley had his PAT blocked following a two-yard touchdown run by Josh Allen. In two games with the Bills, Badgley has looked shaky, making his lone field-goal try while missing two of his four extra-point attempts. It's unclear if Matt Prater (quadriceps) will be back for Week 18 against the lowly Jets.

Chad Ryland K | ARI
Cardinals' Chad Ryland: No FGAs in loss
Ryland did not attempt a field goal and made both of his PATs in Sunday's 37-14 loss to the Bengals.
Ryland went without a field-goal try for the second time in three weeks and fourth time overall this season. The kicker earned the nod over Joshua Karty in Week 17 after Karty was signed to the practice squad earlier in the week. Ryland has gone 23-for-31 on field-goal tries, including 5-for-9 from 50-plus yards, while making all 34 of his PATs over 16 contests this year.
