    Broncos' Wil Lutz: Extends perfect streak

    Lutz went 2-for-2 on field-goal tries while making his lone extra-point attempt in Sunday's 31-21 loss to the Jets.

    Lutz was perfect on kicks for the fourth-straight week, continuing a solid start to the 2023 campaign. The veteran kicker connected on field goals from 22 and 23 yards out in the contest. Lutz will look to continue his perfect streak in Week 6 when the Broncos visit the Chiefs.

  • Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Rough outing on MNF

    Carlson converted one of three field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Monday's 17-13 win over the Packers.

    Carlson had a 53-yard attempt blocked by the Packers near the end of the first half, and his next field-goal opportunity from 52 yards at the final two-minute warning clanked off the right upright. Although Carlson's three attempts were a season high, he finished the game with just one made field goal for a fifth consecutive week. The Raiders stay in Las Vegas for a Week 6 matchup against the Patriots.

  • Packers' Anders Carlson: Remains perfect on season

    Carlson made two field goals and an extra point in Monday's 17-13 loss to the Raiders.

    Carlson made two field goals for the second week in a row and is now a perfect 7-of-7 on field goals and 10-of-10 on extra points five games into his rookie season. While accuracy has not been an issue for Carlson, opportunity has been, and he has not put more than seven points on the scoreboard since recording eight points in Week 1.

  • 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 | ATL

    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.
