  • Wil Lutz K | DEN

    Broncos' Wil Lutz: Connects on game-winning FG

    Lutz made both of his extra-point attempts and his lone field-goal try during the Broncos' 33-32 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    The Broncos' offense struggled for most of Sunday's game but came alive in the fourth quarter with 33 points. Quarterback Bo Nix led a four-play drive late in the fourth quarter to set up Lutz for a 39-yard field goal, which the latter hit right through the middle of the uprights to improve Denver's record to 5-2. Lutz has not missed a kick in six of the first seven games of the regular season and is 9-for-10 on field-goal attempts and 16-for-16 on extra-point tries.

  • Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Quiet day in Week 7

    Butker made his only field-goal attempt and all four of his PATs in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders.

    Butker went a third straight week without attempting multiple field goals in a game, connecting on his only attempt from 38 yards in the victory. The kicker has now made 12 of 15 field-goal tries while going 18-for-21 on PATs over seven games this season.

  • Keenan Allen WR | IND

    Chargers' Keenan Allen: Season-best numbers in Week 7 loss

    Allen caught 11 of 14 targets for 119 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

    The targets, catches and yards were all season highs for the veteran wideout, who was Justin Herbert's most reliable option in the second half as the Chargers tried to mount a comeback from a 23-3 halftime deficit. Allen snapped a three-game scoring drought with the performance, and he'll carry a 44-435-4 line on 65 targets through seven contests into a Week 8 clash with a Vikings secondary that just surrendered a combined 13-304-3 line to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

  • Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Finds end zone in return

    Johnston caught two of six targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

    Making his return from a one-game absence due to a hamstring strain, Johnston struggled with drops and didn't see a lot of volume, but he was still able to make an impact with a seven-yard TD reception from Justin Herbert in the third quarter. Johnston will take a 28-407-5 line on 46 targets through six contests into a Week 8 meeting with the Vikings, who just surrendered a combined 13-304-3 line to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Makes every kick Sunday

    Dicker hit his only field-goal attempt and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

    The kicker's field goal came from 43 yards out. Dicker has yet to miss a kick in 2025, going 15-of-15 on field-goal tries and 14-of-14 on extra-point attempts. He'll try to stay perfect on Thursday Night Football this week against the Vikings.

  • Ladd McConkey WR | LAC

    Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Season-high nine grabs Sunday

    McConkey caught nine of 15 targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

    The second-year wideout set new season highs in targets and receptions, although the increased volume didn't result in increased production -- McConkey finished third on the Chargers in receiving yards behind rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden (7-164-1 on nine targets) and Keenan Allen (11-119-1 on 14 targets), while Quentin Johnston was on the other end of Justin Herbert's third TD. It's been a disappointing sophomore campaign so far for McConkey, but he's posted a 21-206-2 line on 31 targets over the last three games, giving him momentum heading into a Week 8 clash with a Vikings secondary that just surrendered a combined 13-304-3 line to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

  • Tua Tagovailoa QB | ATL

    Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa: Another three picks in defeat

    Tagovailoa completed 12 of 23 passes for 130 yards with no touchdowns and three interceptions while adding three rushes for six yards in the Dolphins' 31-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

    The Dolphins offense hit its 2025 nadir to date in the lopsided defeat, and Tagovailoa's play stood out front and center. The sixth-year veteran's first interception of the day -- which resulted in a pick-six -- came on a deflection off De'Von Achane's hands, although Tagovailoa's throw was high and off target. The subsequent pair of picks transpired on back-to-back possessions in the fourth quarter, and head coach Mike McDaniel opted to keep the 2020 first-round pick on the sideline after the second of those miscues. Tagovailoa came into the afternoon fresh off another three-interception tally at home versus the Chargers in Week 6, and it may be fair to question his hold on the starting job heading into a thorny Week 8 road matchup against a talented Falcons defense.

  • Kimani Vidal RB | LAC

    Chargers' Kimani Vidal: Stifled by Indy

    Vidal carried the ball nine times for 20 yards and caught four of five targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Colts.

    After a huge Week 6 performance against the Dolphins as the Chargers' lead back, Vidal had much less success in Week 7. While he still led Los Angeles in carries, Justin Herbert actually led the team in rushing yards with a meager 31. With Omarion Hampton (IR, ankle) likely still more than a month away from his return, Vidal will maintain his spot at the top of the depth chart heading into a Week 8 clash with a Vikings defense that just held Saquon Barkley to 44 rushing yards and 2.4 yards per carry.

  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Cardinals' Chad Ryland: Perfect in Week 7 loss

    Ryland made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during the Cardinals' 27-23 loss to the Packers.

    Ryland opened Sunday's scoring with a 32-yard chip shot midway through the first quarter, and the third-year kicker connected on two more field goals from 40 and 39 yards in the second and fourth quarters, respectively. It was the first time this season that Ryland connected on three field goals in a game, and he has not missed a kick in each of his last four outings. The 2023 fourth-rounder is 13-for-15 on field-goal tries and 16-for-16 on extra-point attempts through the first seven games of the regular season.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Makes five field goals

    Reichard hit all five field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Eagles.

    The kicker made a 59-yarder in the first quarter before hitting from 34, 28, 35 and 29 yards, respectively. Reichard has only missed one kick this year, going 13-of-14 on field goals and 12-of-12 on extra points. He should get more opportunities in Minnesota's Week 8 Thursday night clash with the Chargers.
