Slye made one of his two field-goal tries and converted both of his two extra-point attempts during Sunday's 30-17 loss at Arizona.
On the Patriots' first drive of the game, Slye hooked a 53-yard attempt wide to the left and extended his streak of games with at least one missed kick to four. Even when New England's sluggish offense has moved the ball this season, he's been inconsistent, making him an unappealing option for what remains of the fantasy playoffs.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Misses two FGAs in loss
Rotowire
Slye went 3-for-5 on field-goal tries while making his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Colts.
Slye began his day with three straight field-goal makes from 35 yards, 31 yards and 54 yards versus Indianapolis. He then missed a chip-shot 25-yarder on the team's final possession of the first half before later missing a nearly impossible 68-yard attempt to end the game. The kicker has now made 22 of 28 field-goal tries while going 17-for-18 on PATs in 2024.
Slye missed his only field-goal attempt but converted his only extra-point try during Sunday's 34-15 loss at Miami.
Slye's only shot at a field goal in Week 12 came towards the end of the first quarter, and he drove the 45-yard kick off the right upright. He has now missed a kick in three of his last four games heading into a Week 13 matchup versus the Colts.

Rotowire

Patriots' Joey Slye: Perfect versus Bears
Rotowire
Slye made all four of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during New England's 19-3 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Slye was perfect through all five of his kicks during Sunday's victory, and he outscored Chicago's entire team. He will look to build off this performance during the team's Week 11 matchup versus the Rams.
Slye made one of his two field-goal tries and converted both of his two extra-point attempts during Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss at Tennessee.
Both of Slye's field-goal tries in Week 9 came from longer than 50 yards out, a tough ask for any kicker. But after such a close loss, the Patriots will probably look back on the 56-yarder he missed in the first quarter as a squandered opportunity. New England's struggling offense will get another stiff test in Week 10 at Chicago.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Quiet day in Week 8 win
Rotowire
Slye made his only field-goal attempt and converted on both extra-point tries in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Jets.
Slye was successful on a 23-yard chip shot in the fourth quarter, which gave the Patriots a one-point lead with 7:36 left to play in the game. Slye is now 11-for-13 on field-goal attempts and 11-for-11 on extra-point tries through the first seven games of the regular season.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Not heavily involved in loss
Rotowire
Slye made his only field-goal try and converted his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 32-16 loss to the Jaguars.
Slye's 41-yarder early in the second quarter put the Patriots up 10-0, but momentum quickly swung in Jacksonville's favor afterwards, leaving Slye without any further scoring chances. Though New England's office has improved since Drake Maye took over as starter, it remains one of the worst in the league by many metrics so far this season, rendering Slye non-viable in most fantasy formats.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Not a big factor Sunday
Rotowire
Slye made all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 41-21 loss versus the Texans.
Slye did not attempt any field-goal attempts for the first time this season. However, New England looked improved on offense with rookie Drake Maye under center, and if that's sustained, it could provide a boost to Slye's fantasy value in the long run.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Nails long field goal
Rotowire
Slye made his lone extra-point try and both of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the 49ers.
Slye's performance came in a losing effort, but it was impressive nonetheless. Before making a 54-yard attempt in the fourth quarter, the Virginia Tech product successfully hit a 63-yard try going into halftime, a kick that qualifies as the fourth-longest made field goal in NFL history and the second-longest field goal in an outdoor setting.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Converts only FG attempt Week 3
Rotowire
Slye made his only field-goal try and didn't attempt any extra points in last Thursday's Week 3 loss to the Jets.
Slye accounted for New England's only points in the defeat with a 44-yard field goal in the second quarter. The veteran kicker has gone 6-for-7 in field-goal tries through three weeks, with his only miss being a 48-yard attempt that was blocked. Though the Patriots are averaging only 13.0 points this season, Slye has managed to maintain moderate productivity since the team has struggled to score TDs when managing to get into the red zone.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Misses one in loss
Rotowire
Slye made both of his extra-point tries but missed one of three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to the Seahawks.
Slye hit early from 29 and 28 yards, respectively. However, with the Patriots leading 20-17 and four minutes to go in the game, he had a 48-yard attempt blocked, keeping the Seahawks within a field goal. Jason Myers kicked a field goal for Seattle with less than a minute to go, and New England ultimately lost in overtime. Slye and the Patriots will travel to New York for Week 3 with a game against the Jets on Thursday.

Rotowire

Joey Slye: Replaced by rookie
Rotowire
The Jaguars released Slye on Tuesday.
Slye inked with Jacksonville as a free agent back in March, but he's now lost his spot on the roster to rookie sixth-round pick Cam Little. Meanwhile, Riley Patterson remains with the Jaguars as potential offseason competition for Little. Slye converted 19 of 24 field-goal tries and 32 of 35 extra-point attempts across 17 games with Washington last season.

Jaguars' Joey Slye: Signing with Jacksonville
Rotowire
Slye is signing a one-year contract with the Jaguars, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The Jags and Commanders now have swapped kickers, after Brandon McManus signed with Washington last week. The difference is that McManus figures to essentially be handed a starting job, whereas Slye is less proven and may have to compete with reserve/future signee Riley Patterson. Slye's career field-goal percentage (82.3) and PAT percentage (88.5) both are subpar by modern standards, though he does have a strong leg and has made 20 of 32 tries from 50-plus yards in his career.

Commanders' Joey Slye: Makes field-goal attempt in defeat
Rotowire
Slye made a field goal and an extra point in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Cowboys.
Slye's lone field goal came from 36 yards out, bringing his tally to 19-for-24 on the season (79 percent). The Virginia Tech product didn't see much work this season, with 28 other kickers seeing more FGAs. The 27-year-old is set to be a free agent this offseason after signing a two-year contract with the Commanders in April 2022.

Commanders' Joey Slye: Again held without a field goal
Rotowire
Slye did not attempt a field goal and made all four of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 30-28 loss to the Jets.
Slye is on a three-game streak without a field goal, a pattern that would be concerning even if Washington wasn't finishing out the regular season with two difficult defensive matchups against the 49ers and Cowboys. Through 15 games this season, Slye has made just 17 of 22 field-goal tries for a career-worst 77 percent conversion rate.

Commanders' Joey Slye: Knocks down only field goal in loss
Rotowire
Slye converted on a 43-yard field-goal try and his lone extra-point attempt during Thursday's 45-10 loss to Dallas.
Slye wasn't presented many scoring opportunities in Thursday's blowout loss, with the Commanders finding themselves trailing significantly from an early stage. Washington's offense will look to get back on track versus the Dolphins in Week 13, though Miami's defense has notably improved of late.

Commanders' Joey Slye: Perfect in close win
Rotowire
Slye converted both of his two field-goal attempts and both of his two extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-17 win at New England.
None of his kicks approached the range of the 61-yarder he made in Week 8, but Slye did enough in Week 9 to help Washington secure the win. In Week 10, the Commanders offense draws a favorable matchup against a below-average Seattle defense.

Commanders' Joey Slye: Gets job done in win
Rotowire
Slye made his only field-goal attempt and all of his three extra-point tries in Sunday's 24-16 win at Atlanta.
Slye's toughest task of the day was a 37-yard field goal after the first drive of the game, and he drove it dead center between the uprights. He has struggled somewhat on longer kicks through six games this season, but that might not matter much when Washington travels to take on a weak Giants defense in Week 7.
