    Broncos' Wil Lutz: Perfect on kicks

    Lutz went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts while making all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 35-33 loss to Commanders.

    After an underwhelming performance in Week 1, Lutz bounced back Sunday by making all five of his kicking tries. The veteran connected on field goals from 31 and 32 yards out in the second half of the contest. The Broncos' offense appears to be on the right track under head coach Sean Payton, so its possible Lutz could see more scoring opportunities going forward in 2023. The 29-year-old will look to continue his perfect streak when the Broncos visit the Dolphins in Week 3.

  • Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Perfect in win over Jets

    Aubrey connected on all five of his field-goal attempts and his only extra point in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jets.

    The rookie kicker coolly drilled a 55-yard FG in the third quarter, with his other four field goals coming from 35 yards or less. After missing his very first NFL attempt in Week 1 on a PAT, Aubrey has been perfect since, and the Cowboys have supplied him with plenty of opportunities while outscoring the opposition 70-10 through two games. His fantasy value is rising quickly, and Aubrey could be busy again in Week 3 against the winless Cardinals.

  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Patriots' Chad Ryland: Five points in Week 2

    Ryland made his only field-goal attempt (from 49 yards) in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Dolphins.

    Ryland also made both of his extra-point tries Sunday and now has a total of seven points through his first two games as a pro. As the season progresses there will be weeks where the 2023 fourth-rounder has more scoring opportunities, but for now Ryland is a speculative fantasy option.

  • Younghoe Koo K | NYG

    Falcons' Younghoe Koo: Makes game-winning kick

    Koo made one of his two extra-point tries and all four of his field-goal attempts during Sunday's 25-24 win over the Packers.

    Koo made a 24-yard field goal in the first quarter to open the scoring, but he missed an extra-point attempt after a Drake London touchdown in the second quarter. The veteran kicker bounced back in a big way in the second half and connected on all three of his field-goal attempts, including a go-ahead 25-yarder with under a minute left in the game. Despite the missed PAT, Koo remains a consistent and effective kicker in reality and fantasy.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Commanders' Joey Slye: Rocky performance

    Slye connected on all three of his extra-point tries, but he missed two of his four field-goal attempts in a 35-33 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

    Syle missed wide right on his first FGA from 49 yards out on the team's opening drive. However, the 27-year-old recovered to connect from 44 and then from 49 yards to close out the first half. His last attempt and second miss came from 59 yards halfway through the third quarter with the game tied at 21. His next opportunities will come Week 3 against the Bills.

  • Packers' Anders Carlson: Logs six points in loss

    Carlson made a 33-yard field goal and all three extra points he attempted in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Falcons.

    Carlson fell a bit short of his Week 1 point total, both in the box score and in fantasy lineups, but he could have topped those marks had a penalty on Green Bay's opening drive not caused head coach Matt LaFleur to pass on a 56-yard field-goal attempt in favor of a punt. Carlson -- despite nailing a 52-yarder in Week 1 -- seemingly still has some trust to gain beyond 50 yards, but that should come with time, and he remains perfect two games into his rookie season.

  • Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Perfect once again

    Butker made both of his extra-point tries and connected on his lone field-goal attempt in the Chiefs' 17-9 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Butker's 38-yard make came midway through the fourth quarter, padding the Chiefs lead to eight and making the score 17-9. The veteran kicker is now 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on PATs this season. Next up for Butker is the Bears in Week 3.

  • Matt Gay K | SF

    Colts' Matt Gay: Has productive day

    Gay converted all four of his extra-point tries and hit a 42-yard field goal in Sunday's 31-20 win over the Texans.

    Gay's field-goal attempt and make were his firsts on the season, while he remained perfect in PAT attempts, now at 7-for-7. He'll work to say perfect in Week 3 against the Ravens.

  • Jets' Austin Seibert: Fills in for Zuerlein

    Seibert made his only field-goal attempt from 34 yards and converted his lone PAT try in Sunday's 30-10 loss to Dallas.

    Seibert didn't get many opportunities as the Zach Wilson-led Jets offense was stifled by Dallas' ferocious defense, but he made both of his kicks when called upon. The kicker signed to the Jets' practice squad and was elevated to the active roster Sunday with Greg Zuerlein (groin) unavailable. If Zuerlein sits out again in Week 3 against the Patriots, Seibert should continue to fill in.

  • Bengals' Evan McPherson: Perfect in loss

    McPherson connected on all three of his extra-point tries and his lone field-goal attempt in a 27-24 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

    McPherson was good from 27 yards out in the second quarter to make him 2-for-3 on FGAs for the 2023 season after hitting from 42 but missing from 51 yards out Week 1 against the Browns. He'll look to be perfect again in Week 3 against the Rams.
