  • Giants' Dominic Zvada: Four PATs in debut

    Zvada made all four of his PATs and attempted no field goals in Sunday's 28-20 win over the Cowboys.

    Zvada displayed consistency as he knocked in all four point-after tries during his NFL debut. The kicker has yet to be tested from any range, however, and it remains unclear how the undrafted rookie out of Michigan will handle the longer challenges he will face in the NFL.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Perfect in close win

    Elliott made his sole field-goal attempt and converted all three of his PATs in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Commanders.

    Elliott made a 35-yard field goal and provided the consistency that Washington's Drew Stevens could not on PATs, something that ultimately decided the game in the Eagles' favor. The kicker heads into Week 2 without being tested from range, and it remains to be seen how the 31-year-old will fare on 50-yarders or more in 2026.

  • Drew Stevens K | WAS

    Commanders' Drew Stevens: Struggles in loss

    Stevens missed one of his two field-goal attempts and one of his two PATs in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

    Stevens missed four total points of value in a game that was decided by two points. The undrafted free agent out of Iowa made a 55-yard field goal but missed one from 54 yards. The rookie's consistency will be something to watch as the Commanders head into a Week 2 matchup with the Cowboys that once again could come down to special teams execution.

  • Trey Smack K | GB

    Packers' Trey Smack: Buries 59-yarder in debut

    Smack made all three of his field-goal attempts while missing one of two PATs in Sunday's 39-22 loss to the Vikings.

    Smack made field goals from 59, 43 and 26 yards but fell short of a flawless night after missing an extra-point try. The sixth-round rookie had a strong debut overall with 10 total points.

  • Dolphins' Riley Patterson: Misses field goal versus Raiders

    Patterson converted two of his three field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries during Miami's loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

    Patterson made kicks from 41 and 37 yards out but failed to convert on a second 41-yard attempt during the third quarter. The 27-year-old served as the Dolphins' kicker last season as well, making 27 of his 29 field-goal attempts and all but one of his 35 extra-point tries.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Titans' Joey Slye: Solid in loss

    Slye made his only field-goal try and his sole extra-point attempt during Sunday's 23-10 loss versus the Jets.

    Tennessee was able to muster only 195 total yards Week 1, leaving just two opportunities for Slye to add to the score. His field goal, a 42-yarder, came on the Titans' first drive of the game. Until his team's offense demonstrates it can consistently move the ball, Slye does not project as a great fantasy option.

  • Nick Folk K | ATL

    Falcons' Nick Folk: Misses two field goals

    Folk went 2-for-4 on field-goal attempts and hit his only extra-point try in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Steelers.

    The kicker did connect from 43 and 51 yards, respectively, but he also missed from 45 and 54. Folk missed only one field-goal try in each of the last three regular seasons.

  • Andre Szmyt K | CLE

    Browns' Andre Szmyt: Makes both kicks in Week 1

    Szmyt made his only field-goal attempt and extra-point try in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Jaguars.

    Szmyt provided the team with their first points of the regular season, knocking through a 26-yard field goal with 8:31 left in the third quarter. With Cleveland expected to be in for a long year, the kicker is likely on track to have limited opportunities this season.

  • Colts' Spencer Shrader: Converts lone field-goal attempt

    Shrader converted his only field-goal attempt and two of his three extra-point tries during Indianapolis' loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

    Shrader's lone make came from 58 yards out, which was a new career long for the 27-year-old. He spent time with three different teams across the last two seasons before beating out Blake Grupe for the Colts' kicking job during training camp, and Shrader will look to keep producing as the season goes on.

  • Saints' Daniel Carlson: Nearly hero in overtime loss

    Carlson made one of two field-goal tries and converted all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 31-30 overtime loss at Detroit.

    Carlson's last field-goal try of the day came on the last play of regulation with the score tied 24-24, and he pushed the 62-yarder just a bit wide to the right. His make was a 28-yard chip shot in the middle of the fourth quarter. He has struggled somewhat attempting longer kicks in recent years, but he'll be looking to bounce back in a Week 2 matchup at Baltimore.
