    Cade York: Likely to kick for Giants in Week 16

    York is likely to serve as the Giants' kicker in Monday's game against the Eagles after head coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that he doesn't expect Randy Bullock (hamstring) to be available for Week 16, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    York, who currently resides on New York's practice squad, looks destined to be elevated to the active roster Monday, assuming Bullock doesn't make any major strides in his recovery from the injury in the coming days. The 2022 fourth-round pick hasn't yet appeared in a game this season, but across 17 appearances with the Browns as a rookie, he converted 24 of 32 field-goal attempts and 35 of 37 extra-point tries.

  • Giants' Randy Bullock: Unlikely to play Week 16

    Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that he doesn't expect Bullock (hamstring) to play in Monday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    After connecting on a 56-yard field goal in the first quarter of this past Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Saints, Bullock hurt his right hamstring on the ensuing kickoff and didn't return to the contest. Punter Jamie Gillan ended up stepping in for Bullock on kickoffs and placekicking, converting on his lone field-goal try (from 40 yards). Rather than having Gillan continue to pull double duty in Week 16, the Giants are expected to promote kicker Cade York from the practice squad to replace Bullock. While Daboll's comments suggests Bullock won't be available Monday, his status won't be officially confirmed until the Giants post their final Week 16 injury report.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Makes four kicks

    Myers made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Monday night's 20-17 win over the Eagles.

    Myers hit field goals from 26 and 43 yards. The veteran now sports 112 points this season, ranking fourth among kickers.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: Scores double digits

    Tucker made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 23-7 win over the Jaguars.

    Tucker converted field goals from 43, 26 and 34 yards. With a couple PATs as well, the future Hall of Famer has now notched double-digit points in three of his last four games. With 120 points total, Tucker is topped by only two kickers in scoring through 15 weeks this season.

  • Tyler Bass K | BUF

    Bills' Tyler Bass: Scores seven points

    Bass made his only field-goal attempt and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys.

    Bass's field goal came from 23 yards. After a prolonged slump during the middle of the season, Bass has now notched at least seven points in four straight games. Overall, his 103 points are tied for 13th among kickers league-wide.

  • Matt Prater K | BUF

    Cardinals' Matt Prater: Makes all kicks

    Prater made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 45-29 loss to the 49ers.

    Prater converted field goals from 58, 43 and 28 yards. In doing so, the veteran has now hit eight kicks from 50-plus yards, including a 62-yarder back in Week 3. With 85 total points, though, Prater still places outside the top 25 at his position in scoring.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Quiet day in loss

    Elliott made his lone field goal attempt and both of his extra points in Monday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks.

    The Eagles' offense has been stuck in a rut in recent weeks, scoring less than 20 points in three straight games, all of which have resulted in losses. Elliott made a pair of field goals in the first two games of the losing streak, but his only attempt in Monday's contest was an easy 27-yarder.

  • Mike Badgley K | IND

    Lions' Michael Badgley: Takes over kicking gig

    Badgley is the only placekicker on the Lions' roster after the team waived Riley Patterson on Tuesday.

    Badgley has resided on Detroit's practice squad all season, but he was elevated Saturday and served as the team's kicker for a Week 16 win over the Broncos. Patterson was inactive for that contest and now finds himself in search of a new squad. While Badgley was tasked with only six point-after tries Saturday, he struck true on 20 of 24 field-goal attempts in 12 games for the Lions in 2022. He has two elevations remaining before the team will need to sign him to the active roster.

  • Riley Patterson: Cut loose by Lions

    The Lions waived Patterson on Tuesday.

    For each of the Lions' first 13 games of the season, Patterson served as the team's placekicker, connecting on 15 of 17 field-goal attempts and 35 of 37 point-after tries. The prospect of switching to Michael Badgley was there all along after he joined the practice squad following cut-down day back in August, and Detroit finally made the move this past Saturday against the Broncos, keeping him active and making Patterson inactive. With Patterson now off the roster, he'll be subject to waivers before having his pick at other opportunities elsewhere.

  • Buccaneers' Chase McLaughlin: Double-digit points in win

    McLaughlin drilled field-goal attempts of 39 and 46 yards and made all four of his extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 34-20 win over the Packers on Sunday.

    McLaughlin turned in another unblemished day and pushed his success rate on field goals to an impressive 92 percent for the season. The veteran kicker also kept his PAT ledger perfect while improving to 29-for-29 on the season in that department, and another busy day could await in the Week 16 home battle against the Jaguars.
