  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Just three extra points

    Dicker made all three extra-point attempts in Thursday's 63-21 loss to the Raiders.

    The game got completely out of hand by the Raiders' fourth possession, so Dicker really had zero shot at having a productive fantasy day. The offense looked downright dreary at times with Easton Stick at quarterback, and given the lack of Dicker's range, the second-year kicker has definitely lost some fantasy luster.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Expected back for Week 15

    Fairbairn (quad) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Fairbairn remains on injured reserve but looks ready to return this week after missing the last five games with his pulled quad. On the season, Fairbairn has made 18 of 19 field goals and all 14 of his extra points. Matt Ammendola has been filling in at kicker for Houston in Fairbairn's absence.

  • Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Tallies nine extra points on TNF

    Carlson made all nine of his extra-point attempts in Thursday's 63-21 win over the Chargers.

    Carlson didn't attempt a single field goal for the second straight week, but he contributed nine extra points in the Raiders' blowout victory. A tougher test looms against the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium in Week 16.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Return on schedule

    Fairbairn (quadricep) was designated for return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    Fairbairn is expected to resume kicking duties for the Texans in Week 15 against the Titans, and his return to practice Wednesday after having his 21-day evaluation window opened marks a step toward making that a reality. Assuming Fairbairn experiences no setbacks with his quad in practice over the next three days, Houston will likely formally add him back to the 53-man roster Saturday. Fairbairn converted 18 of 19 field-goal attempts and 14 of 14 extra-point tries in Houston's first eight games before landing on IR.

  • Lions' Riley Patterson: Misses extra point

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal and missed one of his two extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Bears.

    Patterson has now scored three points or fewer in three of his last four outings. That leaves the kicker with 80 points through 13 contests this term.

  • Nick Folk K | NYJ

    Titans' Nick Folk: Makes all four kicks

    Folk made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in Monday's 28-27 win over the Dolphins.

    Folk was only asked to convert from short range, as his field goals came from 28 and 23 yards away. He also made both of his extra point attempts, returning to perfection after missing his first kick of the season in Week 13. Folk has been an extremely reliable option for the Titans and has made multiple field goals in consecutive contests.

  • Mason Crosby K | NYG

    Mason Crosby: Time in L.A. over

    The Rams cut Crosby from their practice squad Tuesday.

    Though the Rams elevated Crosby to the practice squad ahead of this past Sunday's game against the Ravens just days after he signed with the team, he was ultimately inactive for Los Angeles' 37-31 overtime loss. The Rams instead stuck with the struggling Lucas Havrisik as their kicker, and he was able to solidify his job by knocking down both of his extra-point tries and all three of his field-goal attempts, including one from 51 yards. With Havrisik seemingly now secure as the Rams' kicker heading into the final four games of the season, Los Angeles will allow the 39-year-old Crosby to attempt to find work elsewhere.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Extra point made

    Dicker made his sole extra-point attempt in Sunday's 24-7 loss to the Broncos.

    The Chargers' inability to put together meaningful offensive drives handicapped Dicker, as Sunday was his first outing of the year without a field-goal attempt. The 23-year-old is still 19 for 20 on the season with his sole miss a 53-yarder in Week 3, but with Justin Herbert (finger) done for the season, it's hard to imagine the offense somehow looking more effective in the weeks to come.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYG

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Misses two kicks

    Koo missed two of three field-goal attempts and made both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Koo began by converting from 20 yards but subsequently hit the right upright from 50 and went wide left with a 52-yarder. In the end, those misses contributed toward the Falcons falling short. Through 13 games, he now sports 95 points total.

  • Packers' Anders Carlson: Tallies career-best 10 points

    Carlson made three of four field goal attempts and an extra point in Monday's 24-22 loss to the Giants.

    Carlson's missed field goal in the fourth quarter ultimately proved impactful in a game the Packers lost by two points, but on the positive side, he made three field goals and scored 10 points, both for the first time as a professional. Carlson put 19 points on the board over the last two weeks after averaging 5.9 points per contest prior to that, but he will have his work cut out for him in Week 15, as he and the Packers take on a Buccaneers team that ceded just four field goal attempts and two made field goals over its last two contests.
