Sanders converted all four of his field-goal attempts during Sunday's 32-26 win over the Jets. He missed his lone extra-point try.

Sanders' lone miss of Week 14 came on a PAT, as he was otherwise perfect, inducing on a long 57-yard field goal. The veteran has now gone seven straight games without missing a field-goal attempt. On the season, across 13 appearances, Sanders is 26-for-30 on field-goal tries and 20-for-21 on PATs. He'll look to remain accurate on the road against Houston in Week 15.

Reichard (quadricep) is active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Though Reichard carried a questionable tag into Sunday, the Vikings removed most of the mystery about his status by activating him from injured reserve Saturday and waiving John Parker Romo, who had handled kicking duties for each of the last four games. After he was a full participant in practice throughout the week, Reichard looks to have proven his health and will now resume what had been a banner rookie campaign before he landed on IR on Nov. 5. Through his eight appearances on the season, the sixth-round pick out of Alabama converted 14 of 16 field-goal attempts and 23 of 23 extra-point attempts.

The Vikings waived Romo on Saturday.

Romo served as the Vikings' primary placekicker for the last four games due to Will Reichard being on IR with a right quadriceps injury. Romo did a serviceable job over that span, going 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts and 7-for-8 on extra-point tries. Romo shouldn't have much trouble catching on with another team this season that is in need of a kicker.

The Vikings activated Reichard (quadriceps) from injured reserve Saturday.

Reichard was placed on IR in early November after straining his right quad during the Vikings' Week 9 win over the Colts. He's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, but Reichard is set to reclaim his starting kicking duties from John Parker Romo, who was waived Saturday in a corresponding move. Prior to his injury, Reichard went 14-for-16 on field-goal attempts and made all 23 of his extra-point tries across eight regular-season games.

Reichard (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Reichard has been sidelined for the Vikings' last four games due to a quadriceps injury. He was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, and while he's been given the questionable tag for Sunday's game, he's trending towards playing after logging full practices this week.

McManus made a 32-yard field goal and all four extra points he attempted in Thursday's 34-31 loss to the Lions.

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. He and Green Bay will next face a Seattle team that allowed opponents to convert just six field goals over the five games leading up to its Week 14 matchup with the Cardinals.

Prater (knee) underwent a procedure to repair his left meniscus in October, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Prater was placed on injured reserve Oct. 15 and has missed Arizona's last eight games due to a knee injury, and Weinfuss's report Wednesday clarified the issue to be a meniscus. Head coach Jonathan Gannon told reporters Nov. 8 that he expects Prater to return at some point this season; however, he's still yet to return to practice. Chad Ryland will likely continue serving as the Cardinals' kicker until Prater recovers from his meniscus injury.

Reichard (quadriceps) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Reichard was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday after missing the Vikings' last four games due to a right quadriceps strain. He's opened the week with consecutive full practices, and it appears he is on track to be activated off IR ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons. In the eight games prior to his injury, Reichard went 14-for-16 on field-goal attempts and converted all 23 of his extra-point tries.

Reichard (quadricep) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Reichard returned to practice Wednesday for the first time since being placed on injured reserve with a quadricep issue before Minnesota's Week 10 win over the Jaguars. He's missed the Vikings' last four games, but Wednesday's full session suggests he could be available as soon as the Week 14 matchup against the Falcons, if he's activated to the active roster in time. However, if Reichard remains out Sunday, John Parker Romo will likely continue to serve as Minnesota's kicker.

The Bengals signed York to their practice squad Wednesday.

With Evan McPherson (groin) placed on injured reserve Wednesday, York is expected to be elevated to the 53-man roster ahead of Monday's game against the Cowboys. Backed by an offense that scores plenty of points, York will be on the radar in fantasy leagues that roster kickers. York previously kicked in one game for the Commanders earlier this season, knocking down both of his extra-point tries while missing field-goal attempts from 47 and 56 yards before being cut.
