Koo made both of his field-goal attempts, including a long of 52 yards, also going 4-for-4 on extra-point tries during Sunday's 34-27 win against the Broncos.

Koo continues to display consistency from deep range, improving to 3-for-3 on field-goal tries of 50-plus yards this season with his Week 9 performance. The Georgia Southern product has been enjoying a marvelous 2020 with the Falcons overall, as he's 21-for-22 on field goals this season after knocking down 23 of 26 tries in eight appearances for Atlanta last year. A sub-90 percent PAT rate the past two seasons provides room for improvement within Koo's game, but the 26-year-old is starting to look like a keeper for the 3-6 Falcons.

Fairbairn successfully converted two of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 27-25 win over Jacksonville.

One of Fairbairn's field goals was from long range, a season-high 54-yarder, his second boot from beyond 50 in 2020. The nine points was Fairbairn's highest total since Week 5, the last time Houston faced Jacksonville.

Boswell made both of his field-goal attempts while missing both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Cowboys.

Boswell's day started on a low note as he missed his first extra-point try of the game with just over a minute remaining in the second quarter, but he converted on a 59-yard field-goal attempt to finish the first half. The 29-year-old had an extra-point try blocked early in the fourth quarter before converting on his final field-goal attempt of the contest. Boswell has now gone 11-for-11 on his field-goal attempts over the first half of the season, but he's converted on just 24 of his 27 extra-point tries.

Santos converted a field goal and two extra-point attempts in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Titans on Sunday.

With Chicago's offensive line missing multiple starters, the team struggled to consistently move the football, resulting in a poor fantasy line for Santos. Although he's had a pair of strong performances over the past four weeks, he's been held to five points or fewer in four of his last eight games, making him a difficult player to trust in weekly lineups.

Castillo is expected to serve as the team's top kicker with Sam Ficken (groin) listed as doubtful for Monday's game, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Castillo is expected to make his third straight start in the absence of Ficken, who continues to be bothered by a nagging groin injury. Week 8 was a solid contest for the undrafted free agent as Castillo converted three of his four field-goal attempts, though he did see a kick blocked late in the first half.

Folk was added to the injury report Saturday with a back injury and is questionable for Monday's game against the Jets, Zack Cox of NESN.comreports.

Folk was unable to practice Saturday, but the fact that he's just listed as questionable should give fantasy managers a bit of confidence regarding his game-time status. If Folk is unable to play, Justin Rohrwasser will likely be called up from the practice squad to fill in.

Gay was signed to the Colts' practice squad Saturday.

The kicker is yet to appear in a game as an official Colts player, though he's had two different stints on the team's practice squad. Darius Jackson was waived in a corresponding move.

The Colts cut Gay from the practice squad Friday.

Gay was jettisoned in order to allow Indianapolis to re-sign Darius Jackson. Though he hasn't yet appeared in a game this season, Gay did convert 27 of 35 field-goal attempts across 16 contests with the Buccaneers in 2019.

Gano made his only field-goal attempt as well as both of his extra-point tries in Monday night's 25-23 loss to the Buccaneers.

Gano converted from 33 yards on his lone field goal, which helped him maintain his record of just one miss on all 28 of his kicks this season. That consistency has enabled Gano to produce a respectable 59 points through eight games.

Tucker converted all three of his extra-point attempts and his lone field-goal attempt -- a 51-yarder -- in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.

Tucker remained automatic Sunday despite sloppy conditions in Baltimore. He has made two field goals of at least 50 yards this season and ranks sixth among all kickers in fantasy points per game (9.3). Tucker will be in a dome next week when the Ravens take on the Colts in Indianapolis.
