McLaughlin made all three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.

The kicker connected from 46, 34 and 42 yards as he accounted for a majority of his team's points. McLaughlin has yet to miss this season, hitting 19 field goals and 17 extra points through eight games.

Aubrey made three of his four field-goal attempts and all three PATs in the Cowboys' 33-30 overtime loss to the Cardinals.

Aubrey missed a 61-yard field goal before the half in a game that ended with a three-point difference. The kicker converted from 31 yards, 35 yards and 41 yards in the contest as the Cowboys' offense ended up stalling after long drives multiple times. Aubrey moves to 15-for-19 on field-goal attempts and 20-for-21 on PATs through eight regular-season games in 2026.

Loop (groin) was estimated as DNP on Monday's injury report.

Loop is not expected to kick Thursday night against the Jaguars, and there's a chance he lands on injured reserve. Jake Moody will be elevated from the practice squad to handle kicking duties against Jacksonville, coach Jesse Minter said Monday. After winning the kicking job over the summer, Loop has struggled through eight games, making just 13 of 17 FGAs.

Hill (groin) was estimated as a limited participant on Monday's practice report.

It's a new injury for Hill, as it's the first time this season he's been listed on the injury report. In Sunday's loss to the Bills, Hill rushed three times for 15 yards and caught posted season-highs in catches (four) and targets (eight) for 20 receiving yards.

Vidal rushed eight times for 23 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Rams.

The Chargers continue to use a fantasy-unfriendly three-man backfield, giving all three of Vidal, Omarion Hampton and Keaton Mitchell meaningful touches and snaps. In a broken Los Angeles offense and crowded backfield, Vidal has minimal fantasy appeal outside of deeper formats.

Sanders made all four of his field-goal attempts and three PATs in the Jets' 38-33 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

Sanders made four shorter field goals from 21 yards, 36 yards, 39 yards and 31 yards in a perfect outing. The kicker worked to redeem himself after a crucial field-goal miss in a three-point loss to the Dolphins during Week 7. Sanders is 17-for-19 on field goals and 13-for-13 on PATs through eight 2026 regular-season games.

Ayomanor caught three of five targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals.

Even with Carnell Tate (shoulder) inactive against Cincinnati, Ayomanor's role didn't grow much, as Wan'Dale Robinson, Gunnar Helm and Chimere Dike combined to see 22 of the team's 39 targets. Through eight games this season, Ayomanor has 13 grabs for 211 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets.

Giddens racked up 43 yards on six carries in Indianapolis' Week 8 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday.

Giddens entered Sunday having not logged a snap this season, but he got an opportunity in the blowout loss and made the most of it, ripping off a pair of 12-yard runs on the way to a team-leading 43 rushing yards. However, it must be noted that he didn't enter until the game was far out of reach in the fourth quarter, so all of his production came in garbage time. Still, it was a meaningful performance by Giddens in the context of Indianapolis fielding trade offers for star RB Jonathan Taylor amidst a lost season. Should Taylor indeed be dealt, Giddens would immediately take on a more prominent role in the Colts' backfield along with seventh-round rookie Seth McGowan.

Stevens made four of his five field-goal attempts and converted his only extra-point try during Sunday's 27-10 win versus the Eagles.

Stevens had just one blemish in an otherwise great game in Week 8, as he missed a 55-yard attempt after the Commanders' first drive of the game. Regardless, he set a new career high in field goals made in a game. Washington's offense will try to keep up the momentum against a tougher defense in Week 9 versus the Rams.

Bass made all three of his field-goal attempts as well as three PATs in the Bills' 36-10 win over the Ravens on Sunday.

Bass converted multiple long-range field goals for the Bills after the offense stalled several times due to drops. The kicker succeeded from 56 yards, 22 yards and 51 yards in the contest. Bass has converted all 16 of his field-goal attempts and is 21-for-23 on PATs through seven games this season.
