    Lions' Jake Bates: Makes only FGA in loss

    Bates made his only field-goal try and missed his only PAT in Sunday night's 16-9 loss to the Eagles.

    Bates had a mixed bag of a performance in Week 11. He missed an extra-point attempt for the second week in a row, albeit from 48 yards, after wide receiver Jameson Williams was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct following a touchdown in the second quarter. The kicker was able to connect on a 54-yard field goal in the fourth quarter however, notching his first make from 50-plus yards since Week 7. Bates has now gone 13-for-17 on field-goal attempts, including 3-for-6 from 50-plus yards, while making 33 of 35 extra-point tries over 10 games this year.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Makes three FGAs in win

    Elliott went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made his only PAT in Sunday night's 16-9 win over the Lions.

    Elliott was able to convert field goals from 27 and 34 yards in the first half before later adding a 49-yard make in the fourth quarter. The three field goals were a season high for the kicker, and the performance marked his first contest since Week 2 that he made multiple field goals. Elliott has now made 11 of 13 field-goal tries over 10 games this season.

  • Packers' Lucas Havrisik: Shaky performance in win

    Havrisik did not attempt a field goal and went 1-for-3 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Giants.

    Havrisik was called upon to make a start in place on Brandon McManus (right quadriceps) in Week 11, and he didn't necessarily have a great day. The kicker missed PATs in both the second and third quarters, with the misses at least likely in part due to the windy conditions at the Meadowlands. Havrisik had gone a perfect 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 6-for-6 on extra-point tries over two starts with Green Bay earlier this year, and if McManus remains out, he has a shot to get back on track in Week 12 versus the Vikings.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYJ

    Giants' Younghoe Koo: No FGAs in defeat

    Koo did not attempt a field goal and went 2-for-3 on PATs in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Green Bay.

    Koo went without a field-goal try in his second start with the Giants, and he did miss an extra-point attempt for the first time in three games this season. The kicker has now gone 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts while making four of five PATs over two contests with New York. With Graham Gano (neck) done for the year, Koo has a straightforward path to consistent work for the remainder of the season.

  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Makes pair of FGs in loss

    McPherson converted both of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 34-12 loss to the Steelers.

    McPherson's field goals came from 43 and 48 yards, and through 10 games this season, McPherson has made 15 of 18 field goals and all 23 of his extra points. Kicking in Cincinnati's offense, McPherson is an attractive fantasy option at the position.

  • Rams' Harrison Mevis: No FGAs in win

    Mevis did not attempt a field goal and made all three of his PATs in Sunday's 21-19 win over the Seahawks.

    Mevis was once again unable to try a field goal in Week 11, marking the second consecutive game that he's failed to do so as the Rams' kicker. The 23-year-old has been operating ahead of Joshua Karty with Los Angeles, and Mevis can be elevated one more time before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster. Mevis has done nothing to lose the job to this point, making all nine of his extra-point tries over two contests.

  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Cardinals' Chad Ryland: Converts one field goal in loss

    Ryland went 1-for-2 on field-goal tries and made his only PAT in Sunday's 41-22 loss to the 49ers.

    Ryland pushed a 58-yard attempt wide left in the first quarter before later connecting on a 26-yard try in the second. The kicker has now gone back-to-back weeks without making multiple field goals for the first time this season. Ryland has now gone 16-for-19 on field-goal attempts while making all 22 of his PATs over 10 contests this year.

  • Cam Little K | JAC

    Jaguars' Cam Little: Makes five PATs in win

    Little did not attempt a field goal and went 5-for-5 on PATs in Sunday's 35-6 win over the Chargers.

    Little was held without a field-goal try for the first time this year, but his five extra-point makes were a new season high for the kicker. Little has now gone 16-for-20 on field-goal attempts, including 3-for-5 from 50-plus yards, while making 24 of 25 PATs over 10 games.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Converts only FGA in loss

    Reichard made his only field-goal attempt and both of his PATs in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Bears.

    Reichard connected on a 31-yard field goal in the first quarter, but it would prove to be his only field-goal try of the day. The kicker had attempted at least two field goals in four consecutive games prior to Sunday. On the year, Reichard has gone 19-for-21 on field-goal attempts, including 6-for-8 from 50-plus yards, while making all 19 of his extra-point tries over 10 contests this year.

  • Matt Prater K | BUF

    Bills' Matt Prater: Uneventful day in blowout win

    Prater made his only field-goal attempt and went 5-for-5 on PATs in Sunday's 44-32 victory over Tampa Bay.

    Prater had a relatively quiet day while the team put up 44 points, making his only field-goal try from 39 yards in the third quarter. The kicker has now attempted one or fewer field goals in three consecutive games and four of the last five overall. Prater has now gone 13-for-15 on field-goal tries, including 1-for-2 from 50-plus yards, while making 31 of 32 extra-point attempts over 10 contests this year.
