Zuerlein connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's win over the Eagles.

The veteran kicker has delivered double-digit points in three straight games, something he'd done only three times in his first 11 games as a Cowboy. Zuerlein will try to stay locked in and help kick Dallas to a possible division title in Week 17 against the Giants.

Hollister made both field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-9 win over the Rams.

Myers connected on field goals from 45 and 49 yards, extending his streak -- which dates back to last season -- to 33 straight made field goals. The 29-year-old kicker has converted 15 field-goal tries from beyond 40 yards this year as well. He'll look to stay perfect in a Week 17 matchup against the 49ers.

Prater did not attempt a field goal but made his only PAT during Saturday's 47-7 loss to Tampa Bay.

With quarterback Matthew Stafford (ankle) exiting the game early, the Lions had to rely on the ground game against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the fewest yards per rush attempt (3.2) leaguewide in 2020. The results clearly weren't pretty, and Prater's output suffered as a result. While it's possible the Lions could find more success in Week 17 against a Vikings defense that allows the ninth-most yards per rush attempt (4.6) - plus the sixth-most yards per pass attempt (7.8) - it's also possible that Stafford's potential absence could again bomb Prater's fantasy contributions.

Wright didn't attempt any field goals but converted on all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Colts.

Wright was filling in for Chris Boswell (groin) for the second time this season, and he was perfect on his four kicks during the comeback win. The UCF product has been effective when needed during limited action this year, but he should return to the practice squad if Boswell is healthy enough to play against the Browns in Week 17.

Blankenship made his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Steelers.

Blankenship made a 28-yard chip shot to start the third quarter, marking his only field-goal attempt of the day. The rookie has now made 30 of 33 field-goal tries this season, including 10 of 12 attempts from beyond 40 yards. Even if the Colts fall short of the playoffs, finding their kicker of the future is a bright spot this season.

Hopkins made both field-goal attempts and a lone extra-point try in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Panthers.

Washington's offense struggled mightily with Dwayne Haskins under center, but Hopkins still managed to hit field goals from 48 and 26 yards before Haskins was benched. Hopkins underwent a rough spell through the middle part of the season, but he's now hit 11 of 12 field-goal tries over the last five games, including six kicks from beyond 40 yards.

Gano made two field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Ravens.

Gano has now connected on 27 straight field-goal tries, including 13 from beyond 40 yards. The 33-year-old has been phenomenal, and he carries a high ceiling in a Week 17 matchup against the weak Cowboys defense.

Carlson made all four of his field-goal attempts and converted one of two extra-points tries in Saturday's 26-25 loss to the Dolphins.

Carlson's first extra-point miss since Week 5 proved costly as the Raiders ultimately suffered a one-point loss to be removed from playoff contention. The Auburn product's four field goals marked a season high, however, but three of them were booted from 23 yards or less. Carlson has now gone three consecutive games without attempting a field goal from 40-plus.

Koo made both of his extra-point tries but missed on a potential game-tying 39-yard field-goal attempt with 14 seconds remaining in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chiefs.

Koo pushed the crunch-time kick wide right, continuing a season of frequent late-game heartbreak for the Falcons faithful. The 26-year-old had missed only one of 36 field-goal attempts this season coming into Week 16, composing a perfect 8-for-8 mark on kicks of 50 yards or more. Koo's 30-for-33 rate on extra-point attempts demonstrates a potential blind spot in his game at the short-to-intermediate level, and unfortunately for Atlanta, that reality reared its ugly head Sunday afternoon.

Fairbairn made his lone field-goal attempt and four of four extra-point kicks in Sunday's 37-31 loss to the Bengals.

Fairbairn's production in Week 16 leaves him with 104 points, the fourth straight season he's crossed the 100-point threshold. With one week left in 2020, the UCLA grad has averaged 111.5 points while connecting on 84 percent of field-goal attempts and 92.4 percent of extra-point kicks.
