  • Packers' Brandon McManus: Misfires for first time

    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.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Rough outing Sunday

    Dicker missed his only field-goal try and converted three of his four extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-10 win at Cleveland.

    Dicker's missed field goal came from 44 yards out, but since the Chargers already had a 20-3 lead in the fourth quarter, it wasn't very meaningful. What's slightly more concerning is that Sunday's game was Dicker's second in a row with a missed extra point. He'll be looking to bounce back in Week 10 versus the Titans.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Faultless in road loss

    Sanders made both of his two field-goal tries and converted all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 30-27 loss at Buffalo.

    Sanders made multiple field goals for his second straight contest in Week 9, further demonstrating his accuracy on short kicks this season. The Dolphins' offense appears to be back on track with Tua Tagovailoa under center again, and Sanders will get the benefit of kicking indoors in Week 10 against the Rams.

  • Cam Little K | JAC

    Jaguars' Cam Little: One PAT in loss

    Little did not attempt a field goal and converted his lone PAT during Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles.

    The Jaguars had successful two-point conversions on their first two touchdowns after trailing 22-0, and Little's only opportunity came after the third touchdown late in the fourth quarter. It's the first time all season the rookie sixth-round pick didn't attempt a field goal, and he remains a volatile fantasy option due to Jacksonville's erratic offense.

  • Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Perfect in Sunday's loss

    Aubrey converted both his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's loss to the Falcons.

    He drilled a 34-yard field goal in the first quarter and a 57-yarder right at the end of the third, and Aubrey hasn't missed a kick since Week 5 in Pittsburgh. The second-year kicker has seen fewer PATs and more FGs this season due to the struggles of the Cowboys' offense, and that doesn't seem likely to change with both Dak Prescott (hamstring) and CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) banged up heading into a Week 10 clash with the Eagles.

  • Commanders' Austin Seibert: Reliable in road win

    Seibert made both of his two field-goal tries and all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-22 win against the Giants.

    Both of Seibert's field goals were shorter than extra points, so he wasn't tasked with anything too difficult Sunday. With that said, he has now made multiple field goals in seven of his eight games this season, and his 25 made field goals so far in 2024 are more than any other kicker in the league.

  • Jake Bates K | DET

    Lions' Jake Bates: Perfect in poor weather

    Bates made his only field-goal attempt while converting all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Packers.

    Bates attempted only one field goal for the third game in a row, making a 27-yarder in the second quarter. With swirling wind and rain throughout Sunday's contest in Green Bay, it was a challenging day to be a kicker. Bates has now gone 12-for-12 on field goals while making 30 out of 31 PATs in 2024.

  • Tyler Bass K | BUF

    Bills' Tyler Bass: Makes huge game-winning kick

    Bass made all three of his field-goal tries and converted one of his two extra-point attempts during Sunday's 30-27 win versus the Dolphins.

    Bass's missed extra point in the third quarter would have been high on the list of reasons the Bills couldn't come out on top Sunday, but instead, he later nailed a 61-yard field goal -- a new Bills franchise record -- with five seconds remaining in the game to deliver the win for Buffalo. He'll still be looking to sharpen his accuracy on point-after attempts (he's a disappointing 27-for-30 this season) heading into a Week 10 matchup at Indianapolis.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Patriots' Joey Slye: Misses valuable opportunity Sunday

    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.

  • Matt Gay K | SF

    Colts' Matt Gay: Imperfect in loss

    Gay made two of his three field-goal tries and converted his only extra-point attempt during Sunday's 21-13 loss at Minnesota.

    Gay made multiple field goals for his sixth consecutive game in Week 9, but the struggles from long range he dealt with early in the season resurfaced Sunday when he hooked a 53-yard try left late in the second quarter. He'll be kicking in a dome again in Week 10 when Indianapolis hosts the Bills.
