Fairbairn went 5-for-6 on field-goal attempts during the Texans' 18-15 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

Fairbairn's 51-yard field goal on the Texans' first offensive drive sailed wide right, but the veteran kicker had no trouble with his next five attempts, all of which came from 41 yards or closer. His five made field goals matched a career high, and he has gone 9-for-10 on field-goal tries over his last two games. Four of his made field goals Sunday came on drives with Davis Mills under center, who came into the game early in the second quarter after C.J. Stroud (concussion) left the game. Fairbairn could be in for another busy day against the Jaguars in Week 10 if Stroud does not clear the league's concussion protocol.

Badgley made both of his field-goal attempts and his two extra-point tries during the Colts' 27-20 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

Badgley connected on field goals from 52 and 53 yards in the fourth quarter as the Colts attempted to battle back from a 17-point deficit. His two makes from 50-plus yards matches a career high he set in 2020 and 2022 with the Chargers and Lions, respectively. Since replacing Spencer Shrader (knee), Badgley has made all five of his field-goal attempts and has gone 14-for-15 on extra-point tries across four regular-season games.

Pineiro made both of his field-goal attempts and connected on all four of his point-after tries during the 49ers' 34-24 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Pineiro nailed a 54-yard field goal late in the second quarter before converting on a 33-yard try early in the third frame. The 30-year-old kicker has started since Week 2 after the 49ers cut Jake Moody, and Pineiro has made all 19 of his field-goal attempts and all but one of his 15 extra-point tries across seven regular-season games.

Reichard made both of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries during the Vikings' 27-24 win over the Lions on Sunday.

Reichard drilled a 50-yard field goal late in the second quarter before adding a 20-yard chip shot in the fourth frame. The second-year kicker has connected on six field goals from 50-plus yards, which is tied for second most in the NFL behind Chase McLaughlin (eight). Reichard is 16-for-18 on field-goal attempts and 16-for-16 on extra-point tries through eight regular-season games.

Havrisik (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

The Packers listed Brandon McManus as questionable for a second week in a row, but he again will be able to play through his lingering right quad injury. Havrisik thus will don street clothes Sunday, and his time on Green Bay's roster could be coming to a close whenever McManus is able to ditch the injury entirely.

McManus (right quadriceps) is listed as active Sunday against the Panthers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

McManus managed a pair of full practices during Week 9 prep for the first time since he tweaked his right quad coming out of the Packers' Week 5 bye, but the team still listed him as questionable for Sunday's contest. Now that his status has been confirmed, he'll look to build upon the nine field goals (on 13 attempts) and 14 extra points (on 15 tries) that he's netted in five appearances this season, while Lucas Havrisik (coach's decision) again will be inactive.

Gay (back) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Gay didn't practice last Saturday due to a back injury and then was ruled out ahead of Monday's eventual loss at Kansas City. Matthew Wright filled in for Gay and connected on his only kick (a PAT), but the former reverted to the practice squad Tuesday and was promptly cut, signaling that Gay was set to return to action Week 9. After progressing from no activity Wednesday to limited Thursday and then full Friday, Gay has done just that and will resume placekicking duties for the Commanders on Sunday.

McManus (right quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Panthers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

After opening Week 9 prep with a limited practice Wednesday, McManus ended it with back-to-back full sessions, but the Packers will wait to make a decision on who will kick Sunday until about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. McManus returned from a two-game absence due to a right quad injury this past Sunday in Pittsburgh, but the results were uneven (2-for-4 FGAs, 3-for-3 PATs). Green Bay continues to carry two placekickers on the active roster (also, Lucas Havrisik), so whoever isn't on the inactive list between the two Sunday morning will be kicking in the afternoon.

Prater (right calf) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

The 41-year-old logged three consecutive limited sessions during the Bills' week of practice due to a calf injury, but it now appears that he'll play through the issue in Week 9. Expect Prater to serve as the Bills' top placekicker Sunday.

Patterson went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts in Thursday's 28-6 loss to the Ravens.

Patterson finished off Miami's first possession of the game with a 49-yard field goal make. He missed a 35-yard try wide right later in the first quarter before adding a 43-yarder before the break. The kicker has now made multiple field goals in four consecutive contests and five of the last six games overall. On the season, Patterson has gone 13-for-15 on field-goal tries and made all 19 of his PATs over nine games.
