  • Tyler Bass K | BUF

    Bills' Tyler Bass: Lowest output of season

    Bass made both of his extra-point tries and didn't attempt a field goal in Buffalo's 25-20 loss to Jacksonville in London on Sunday.

    Bass was the victim of the Bills falling behind after the offense got off to a sluggish start, and he finished with a season-low scoring figure. This was also his first game in 2023 without a field-goal attempt. On a more positive note, Bass has yet to miss a single kick all season, making all nine of his FG tries while going a perfect 18-for-18 on extra-point tries. Bass is still a solid seventh in scoring among kickers, with 45 points on the campaign.

  • Jets' Greg Zuerlein: Busy in Week 5 win

    Zuerlein made all five of his field-goal attempts and both PAT tries in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Broncos.

    Four of Zuerlein's field goals were 30 yards or shorter, as New York moved the ball well but frequently stalled out in the red zone. His other make came from 49 yards out in the fourth quarter. The veteran kicker has made 10 of 11 field-goal attempts heading into a Week 6 home game against the Eagles.

  • Nick Folk K | NYJ

    Titans' Nick Folk: Nails 53-yard kick

    Folk made all three of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Colts.

    Folk made kicks from 27, 34 and 53 yards away, and he's now made all 13 of his field-goal attempts for the season. He's been particularly impressive from distance, as six of his field goals have come from 40 or more yards out.

  • Lions' Riley Patterson: No field-goal attempts again

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal but converted six of six PATs during Sunday's 42-24 win over Carolina.

    Detroit found the end zone on six of eight drives, and this offensive efficiency yet against cost Patterson's fantasy investors. Through five games, the Memphis product has attempted just five field goals without a single try from beyond 38 yards. While most kickers attached to this Lions offense would theoretically have significant fantasy potential, the opportunities haven't been there for Patterson thus far into the 2023 campaign. Up next is a Week 6 matchup with Tampa Bay.

  • Jake Moody K | WAS

    49ers' Jake Moody: Limited to PATs on Sunday

    Moody went 6-for-6 on point-after tries without attempting a field goal in Sunday's 42-10 win over the Cowboys.

    Moody finished without a field-goal attempt for the second consecutive week after converting nine attempts over the 49ers' first three games. The rookie kicker stayed perfect by converting PATs on each of San Francisco's six touchdown drives Sunday. Moody should be considered a startable fantasy option against Cleveland this Sunday after successfully converting all 29 of his kicking opportunities through five weeks.

  • Ravens' Justin Tucker: Converts both chances Sunday

    Tucker converted a 23-yard field goal and an extra point in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.

    Tucker's chances were limited Sunday due in part to the offense failing to sustain drives into Steeler territory. There was also a game management gaffe that cost Tucker an opportunity to kick a field goal at the end of the first half. On the year, Tucker is 5-for-7 on field goals and has converted all 12 of his extra-point attempts.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Three more field goals in Week 5

    Elliott went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on extra points in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Rams.

    Elliott didn't have a particularly difficult day, converting one 34-yard attempt and a pair of 26-yarders. The fact that he was yet again asked to attempt at least three field goals is significant, however. He's done so in all five games this season after attempting more than two field goals just once in the entirety of last season. That's a byproduct of the Eagles falling from No. 3 to No. 27 in red-zone touchdown percentage this season, and if that inefficiency persists, it will be to the benefit of Elliott's fantasy managers.

  • Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Nails only field-goal try

    Sanders converted his lone field-goal attempt and all four extra-point tries during the Dolphins' 31-16 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    Sanders continues to benefit from Miami's high-flying offense, with his only missed extra-point attempt having come back in Week 1. The reliable kicker could again be in line for significant PAT opportunities Week 6 against Carolina, though it's worth noting he's only attempted one field goal in his last three appearances.

  • Brett Maher K | LAR

    Rams' Brett Maher: Doesn't attempt a field goal

    Maher converted both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 23-14 loss to the Eagles.

    The veteran kicker was looking for redemption after a shaky start in Week 4, and while he nailed both of his PAT tries in the first half, the Rams offense sputtered after that and Maher never got a chance to score in the second half. The fifth-year pro is a perfect 10-for-10 on PATs on the year and 12-for-16 on field goals, with all four misses coming from 40-plus yards. Week 6 should provide Maher with ample opportunity to produce and solidify his perhaps shaky grasp on the kicking job for the Rams against a porous Cardinals defense.

  • Jaguars' Brandon McManus: Makes FG, two PATs in win

    McManus converted his lone field-goal attempt and both PATs during Sunday's 25-20 win over the Bills.

    Jacksonville successfully converted a two-point conversion after opening the scoring with a touchdown in the first quarter, so McManus lost out on an extra point. The veteran kicker was successful from 44 yards and is now 9-for-11 on field goals and 10-for-10 on PATs through the first five games of 2023. A divisional matchup with the Colts awaits in Week 6.
