  • Cairo Santos K | CHI

    Bears' Cairo Santos: Makes all five kicks in Week 12 win

    Santos made his lone field-goal attempt and all four of his extra-point tries in Chicago's 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.

    Santos drilled a 47-yard field goal at the end of the first half to give the Bears a 21-17 lead going into the locker room. On the season, Santos has made 17 of 21 field-goal tries and all 25 of his extra points. Santos doesn't have a huge leg but is typically pretty consistent from inside 50 yards. The Bears travel to Philadelphia on Black Friday for Week 13.

  • Jalen Hurts QB | PHI

    Eagles' Jalen Hurts: Three scores in loss

    Hurts completed 27 of 39 passes for 289 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys. He added seven rushes for 33 yards and two additional scores.

    Hurts appeared to be in for a huge fantasy performance, as all three of his touchdowns came in the first 19 minutes of game time. While the offense stalled from there, Hurts logged both his most pass attempts and completions of the season to post his second-highest yardage total of the campaign. That led to an excellent fantasy performance, though it masked his ongoing inconsistency as a passer, as he had topped out at 183 passing yards over his previous three contests. Hurts also continues to rely primarily on touchdowns for his rushing production, racking up fewer than 35 rushing yards in seven straight games.

  • Brock Bowers TE | LV

    Raiders' Brock Bowers: Gains 55 yards Sunday

    Bowers had six receptions on nine targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns.

    Bowers produced a modest receiving line while finishing second on the team behind WR Tre Tucker in targets (10) and RB Ashton Jeanty in receptions (eight). While the final results were digestible, Bowers' managers are left wondering what could have been had QB Geno Smith looked the star tight end's way more often instead of taking numerous unsuccessful deep shots to Tucker. Poor playcalling and quarterback play aside, Bowers remains an elite fantasy option week in, week out based on pure talent alone. Expect Bowers to remain a focal point of the passing offense for the struggling Raiders in next Sunday's road tilt against the Chargers.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYJ

    Giants' Younghoe Koo: Makes all five kicks in defeat

    Koo converted both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries in the Giants' 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    Koo's field goals were good from 21 and 44 yards out, and he's now made all four field-goal tries and nine of 10 extra points in three games with the Giants. New York will travel to New England two Monday nights from now for a Week 13 date with the Patriots. New England has been stingy against kickers in fantasy this season.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Supplies entire offense in loss

    Reichard went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts in Sunday's 23-6 loss to the Packers.

    Reichard supplied all of the offense for Minnesota in Week 12, making field goals from 52 and 59 yards in the first half. The performance marked the first time this season that he made multiple 50-plus yard attempts in one game. Reichard has now gone 21-for-23 on field-goal tries, including 10-for-12 from 50-plus yards, while making all 19 of his PATs over 11 contests this year.

  • Falcons' Zane Gonzalez: Perfect on four kicks vs. NOLA

    Gonzalez went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made his lone extra-point try during the Falcons' 24-10 win over the Saints on Sunday.

    Gonzalez opened Sunday's scoring with a 56-yard field goal early in the first quarter and added two more field goals from 41 and 54 yards in the second frame. The veteran kicker has been perfect since joining Atlanta in early November, having made all six of his field-goal attempts (three of which have come from 50-plus yards) and each of his six point-after tries across three regular-season games.

  • Cam Little K | JAC

    Jaguars' Cam Little: Hits two long field goals in OT win

    Little made both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries during the Jaguars' 27-24 overtime win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Both of Little's made field goals came from 52 yards, the second of which took place in overtime in what ended up being the game-winning kick. The second-year kicker has shown off his range this season and is now 5-for-7 on field goals from 50-plus yards. In the four games since the Jaguars' Week 8 bye, Little has made all eight of his field-goal attempts (four of which have come from 50-plus yards) and has gone 13-for-13 on extra-point tries.

  • Titans' Chig Okonkwo: Tallies 40 yards in Week 12 loss

    Okonkwo caught three passes (on four targets) for 40 yards during the Titans' 30-24 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

    Okonkwo was cleared to play Sunday after working through a foot injury during Week 12 prep. He was one of four Titans pass catchers to log at least 40 receiving yards, though notably, he was outproduced by rookie tight end Gunnar Helm, the latter of whom led Tennessee with six catches for 51 yards while tying Chimere Dike for a team-high seven targets. Okonkwo has caught at least three passes in three of his last four games, and for the year he has accumulated 35 catches (on 46 targets) for 377 yards and zero touchdowns across 11 regular-season games. Next up for the Titans is a Week 13 clash against the Jaguars, whose defense yielded a 9-79-0 line (on 10 targets) to Trey McBride in an overtime win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

  • Isaiah Hodgins WR | NYG

    Giants' Isaiah Hodgins: Secures TD in loss to Detroit

    Hodgins caught two of six targets for 42 yards and one touchdown in the Giants' 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.

    Hodgins' six targets were a distant second on the team behind Wan'Dale Robinson's 14 looks from Jameis Winston. Hodgins, however, did find the end zone from 12 yards out in the second quarter to give the Giants a 17-7 lead. Hodgins has drawn six targets in back-to-back games since signing with the team off the Steelers' practice squad. He appears to be locked into three-wide sets alongside Robinson and Darius Slayton, as the Giants seem to again be moving away from Jalin Hyatt.

  • Jaguars' Brenton Strange: Leading receiver in OT win

    Strange (hip) finished with five receptions on as many targets for 93 yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win against Arizona.

    Strange made a triumphant return from a five-game injury absence, finishing as Jacksonville's leading receiver with a season-high 93 yards in a thrilling overtime victory. The 24-year-old was averaging 4.8 receptions and 45.5 yards in four games prior to going down in Week 5, so it was a great sign for fantasy managers to see their tight end maintain a large role on offense following his lengthy layoff. With a clean bill of health and the starting job intact, Strange checks in as a startable option in most formats for next Sunday's tilt against the Titans.
