McManus made three field goals and three extra points in Sunday's 30-13 victory over the Seahawks.
Green Bay's offense slowed some after scoring touchdowns on its first two drives, but they remained effective enough to give McManus three field-goal attempts for the second time in three weeks and the fourth time in his eight games with the team. McManus and the Packers will next face a Saints team that ranks middle-of-the-pack against opposing kickers both over the last four weeks and over the course of the campaign.

Rotowire

McManus made every kick he attempted for the fourth time in as many chances and for the sixth time in seven appearances with the Packers.

Packers' Brandon McManus: Perfect in Week 13
Rotowire
McManus made all three of his field-goal tries and converted all three of his extra-point attempts during Thursday's 30-17 win versus the Dolphins.
McManus' first field goal of the day was a 46-yarder with time expiring in the first half to give Green Bay a 24-3 lead. He has now gone three straight games without a missed kick and will be trying to keep that streak alive when the Packers travel to take on Detroit's resilient defense in Week 14.

Packers' Brandon McManus: Perfect in victory
Rotowire
McManus made a 51-yard field goal and all five extra points he attempted in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers.
McManus was perfect for the fourth time in five chances since joining Green Bay in late October, and the eight points he recorded were his second-most over that span.

Packers' Brandon McManus: Hits two extra points
Rotowire
McManus made both extra points he attempted in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Bears.
Possessions were limited for the Packers on Sunday and they attempted a two-point conversion on one of their three touchdown drives, so McManus was limited to only the two extra-point attempts in Week 11. Green Bay will next face a San Francisco team that ranks middle-of-the-pack against opposing kickers, both in recent weeks and over the course of the season.

Packers' Brandon McManus: Misfires for first time
Rotowire
McManus made two of three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions.
Sunday's rainy conditions at Lambeau Field certainly were not ideal for kicking, but nonetheless, McManus misfired from 46 yards out in the second quarter -- his first miss in three games with the Packers. Green Bay will be on bye in Week 10, so those who have added him to their fantasy rosters will need to look for another option. There is reason to replace him altogether, but it should be noted that since McManus made his season debut in Week 7, only five more kickers -- pending the results of the Monday night game -- have attempted more field goals.

Packers' Brandon McManus: Buries another game-winner
Rotowire
McManus made all three field goals he attempted -- including a game-winning 24-yarder as time expired -- and three extra points in Sunday's 30-27 victory over the Jaguars.
McManus buried a game-winning kick against the Texans in Week 7, and he accomplished the same feat just seven days later. He has made all 10 kicks he has gotten up -- four field goals and six extra points -- since joining the Packers, which is exactly what Green Bay was looking for when adding him to the roster in mid-October.

Packers' Brandon McManus: Makes game-winning kick
Rotowire
McManus made all three extra points he attempted and a game-winning 45-yard field goal as time expired in Sunday's 24-22 victory over the Texans.
McManus replaced Brayden Narveson as Green Bay's kicker last week, and it took him no time at all to make an impact for his new team. The Packers have been seeking consistency at the kicker spot for a while, so he figures to hold down the job for a team that ranks seventh in the league at 26.6 points per game with two games to go in Week 7.

Packers' Brandon McManus: New kicker for Green Bay
Rotowire
McManus agreed to a one-year deal with the Packers on Tuesday and is expected to serve as the team's kicker for Sunday's game against the Texans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
McManus spent his first nine seasons with the Broncos before catching on with Jacksonville during the 2023 campaign. He converted 30 of 37 field goal attempts and all 35 extra-points during his stint with the Jaguars. The veteran then landed with the Commanders in the offseason but was subsequently let go one week after reports surfaced that he was the subject of a civil lawsuit. With the NFL conducting an investigation that found insufficient evidence of McManus violating the league's personal conduct policy, the Packers apparently felt comfortable with bringing the 33-year-old aboard to upgrade their kicking game. Green Bay will waive Brayden Narveson to make room on the roster for McManus.

Commanders' Brandon McManus: Joins Commanders
Rotowire
McManus agreed to terms on a one-year, $3.6 million contract with Washington on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
McManus' deal presumably indicates Joey Slye will not be brought back by Washington. The 32-year-old McManus spent his first nine seasons in Denver before converting 30 of 37 field goals and all 35 extra points for the Jaguars in 2023. It remains to be seen if the Commanders will bring in any competition for the veteran kicker.

Jaguars' Brandon McManus: Perfect in season finale
Rotowire
McManus made both field-goal attempts and both PATs against the Titans in Week 18. He played in all 17 games and went 30-for-37 on field goals and 35-for-35 on PATs.
The 32-year-old tied a career high with 125 points, and it was the first time since 2018 he didn't miss an extra point. Five of McManus' misses came from beyond 50 yards, with the other two being from 40-to-49 yards, so he should be able to secure a contract for 2024 somewhere after kicking for the Jags on a one-year deal.
