Tucker converted on his lone field-goal attempt and all four of his extra-point tries during the Ravens' 31-2 win over the Texans on Wednesday.

Tucker nailed a 52-yard field goal late in the first quarter to give the Ravens a 10-0 lead. The All-Pro kicker has been uncharacteristically innaccurate this season, converting on just 73.3 percent of his field-goal attempts. However, he hasn't missed a kick since the Ravens' Week 14 bye, going 3-for-3 on field-goal tries and 13-for-13 on his extra-point attempts over Baltimore's last three games. Tucker will look to finish the regular season strong against the Browns in Week 18.

Boswell converted his lone field-goal attempt while making his lone extra-point try during Wednesday's 29-10 loss to Kansas City.

Boswell remained perfect for a fourth consecutive week Wednesday, but he didn't see many opportunities as the Steelers' offense struggled to generate much offensive production. Heading into next week's regular-season finale against the Bengals, Boswell has converted 40 of 43 field-goal attempts while making all 33 of his extra-point tries this year.

The Titans signed Wright to their practice squad Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

Wright arrives in Tennessee having previously appeared in three games between stops with the 49ers and Chiefs, during which he converted on 11 of 12 field-goal attempts and five of five extra-point tries. He'll give Tennessee another option at kicker after the team waived Brayden Narveson, who filled in for an injured Nick Folk (abdomen) in Week 16 and hit both of his extra-point tries but misfired on his lone field-goal attempt in a 38-30 loss to the Colts. Wright will likely be elevated to the active roster and serve as the Titans' kicker for Sunday's game against the Jaguars if Folk isn't cleared to play.

Prater (knee) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Prater now has been listed as a limited participant on five consecutive injury reports dating back to last Wednesday, but it's unclear if he needs to get back to full participation in order for the Cardinals to feel comfortable enough for him to resume kicking for the first time since undergoing meniscus surgery on his left knee in October. Arizona will need to activate him from injured reserve by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday in order for him to play later that evening versus the Rams, but if he doesn't get back on the active roster for that contest, Chad Ryland will continue to handle placekicking duties for the Cardinals.

Folk (abdomen) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice estimate, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Folk missed the team's Week 16 loss versus the Colts with an abdomen injury and is now in danger of missing his second straight contest. If the 40-year-old ends up being unable to return for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars, Brayden Narveson will handle the kicking duties once again.

Little converted both of his extra-point attempts during the Jaguars' 19-14 loss to the Raiders this past Sunday.

Coming off a 4-for-4 performance on field-goal tries against the Jets in Week 15, Little did not attempt a field goal during this past Sunday's loss. Little has been one of the most accurate kickers in the league, converting on all 23 of his extra-point attempts and going 22-for-24 on field-goal tries. He should have more opportunities to score points Sunday against a Titans team that gave up 38 points to the Colts in Week 16.

Aubrey went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and made both his extra-point tries in Sunday's 26-24 win against the Buccaneers.

Aubrey was responsible for over half of Dallas' points in the narrow victory, and none of his field goals were easy. The big-legged kicker converted from 58, 49, 58 and 53 yards, respectively. Aubrey now has 14 successful field goals from 50-plus yards this season, the most in NFL history. Houston's Ka'imi Fairbairn is right behind him with 13 such field goals this year, while Pittsburgh's Chris Boswell is also within reach with 12.

Myers went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries during the Seahawks' 27-24 loss to the Vikings this past Sunday.

Myers connected on a 43-yard field goal early in the third quarter to tie the game at 17. He had another opportunity late in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 27, but his 60-yard field-goal attempt came up short. It was Myer's fourth missed field goal of the season and his first since Week 5 against the Giants. In the six games since the Seahawks' Week 10 bye, Myers has gone 11-for-12 on field-goal tries and 12-for-14 on extra-point attempts. He should have plenty of scoring opportunities Thursday against a Chicago defense that has given up 30 points in four of its last five games.

Santos made his only field-goal attempt and converted both his extra-point tries in Sunday's 34-17 loss to Detroit.

Santos was successful when called upon, nailing a 30-yard field goal in the third quarter after making both of his extra-point attempts earlier in the contest. The veteran kicker is 19-for-23 on field-goal tries this season, which puts him on pace for his first season below a 90 percent success rate since 2021. Santos is also 22-for-23 on point-after attempts this year.

Prater (knee) was estimated as a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Prater is practicing for the second week in a row after the Cardinals designated him for return from injured reserve Dec. 18. He was listed as a limited participant in all three of the Cardinals' Week 16 practices but wasn't activated from IR ahead of this past Sunday's 36-30 overtime loss to the Panthers, so Prater will presumably need to upgrade to full participation Wednesday or Thursday to have a shot at playing Saturday versus the Rams. If Prater misses a 12th consecutive contest this weekend, Chad Ryland would once again handle kicking duties for the Cardinals.
