Lutz didn't practice Wednesday due to an illness, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

The severity of the aliment remains unclear, but Lutz will have two more opportunities to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's game against Atlanta. The Saints don't have another kicker on the 53-man roster or practice squad, so any signing heading into the weekend would be an indication that Lutz isn't on track to play.

Dicker made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 23-17 win over the Dolphins.

Dicker converted field goals from 33, 31 and 28 yards. In six games with the Chargers, he's missed just one of 26 attempts, racking up an impressive 51 total points.

Bass made both of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jets.

Bass converted from 38 and 49 yards on his field goals. With four games remaining, his 115 points leads all kickers this season.

McManus did not attempt a field goal and made all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-28 loss to the Chiefs.

Though McManus was perfect on his extra-point attempts Sunday, his production was limited by a surprisingly effective day for Denver's offense. Going forward, it's unlikely that the Broncos will all of a sudden be a team that consistently finishes drives in the end zone. For that reason, McManus remains a solid play based on Denver's tendency to stall in scoring range. The 31-year-old kicker will look to bounce back for fantasy purposes when the Broncos host the Cardinals in Week 15.

Butker went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on point-after tries during Sunday's 34-28 win against the Broncos.

Butker has missed just one kick over the last four games and has made multiple field goals in three of the last four. He remains one of the top options at the kicker spot in fantasy leagues and sees some good matchups over the season's final weeks.

Folk converted both of his field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries during Monday's 27-13 win over the Cardinals.

Folk has converted 27 of 32 field-goal attempts through 13 appearances this season, and he remains perfect on his 27 extra-point tries. The veteran could again see solid scoring opportunities against the Raiders in Week 15.

Prater converted two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try during Monday's 27-13 loss to the Patriots.

Prater's opportunities were limited due to Kyler Murray (knee) exiting Monday's loss early and Arizona's offense stalling after that. The veteran has missed just two out of 14 field-goal attempts on the season, but his lack of consistent opportunities keeps him off the fantasy radar heading into a tough Week 15 matchup against Denver.

Elliott went 6-for-6 on extra points and 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts in Sunday's 48-22 victory over the Giants.

Elliott's eight total kick attempts Sunday represent a new season high. As usual, the Eagles' prolific offense found the end zone often enough to deny a huge fantasy outburst for Elliott, but it was still a very productive day for the kicker. Elliott didn't even have to work too hard to put up his points, as his field-goal attempts came from 29 and 39 yards.

Myers connected on a 27-yard field goal and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Panthers.

Myers was perfect from short range to retain his spot as the league's most accurate kicker this year, as he has hit 24 of 25 field-goal tries, including all nine boots from beyond 40 yards. He's averaging just under two field goals per game, so he should be considered a solid fantasy option down the stretch.

Badgley converted two of three field-goal attempts and four of four PATs during Sunday's 34-23 win over Jacksonville.

Badgley followed up a huge Week 13 performance against the Jaguars with another solid stat line, thanks again to the offensive firepower of a fully healthy Lions offense. With that said, he could have had a bigger day had he not missed a 47-yard attempt at the end of the first half. He'll look to improve upon this performance in a Week 15 outdoors matchup in New York against the Jets.
