Myers made a 48-yard field goal but missed one of five extra-point attempts in Sunday's 37-27 win over the 49ers.

Myers remains perfect on field goals this season, as he's connected on five of five attempts, all coming from beyond 40 yards. He leads the league with 30 extra-point attempts, an expected result of being attached to the league's best offense, but he's rarely trotted out for a field goal because the Seahawks have converted on a league-high 88 percent of red-zone trips. The numbers signal that regression should be on the horizon, as no team has converted on more than 78 percent of red-zone trips since the 2010 season, but this offense shows no signs of slowing down. Myers could be a frustrating, low-upside fantasy kicker as a result, but he's provided some solace by making at least four extra points each week.

Butker knocked home all five of his extra-point attempts Sunday versus the Jets.

Butker didn't have to attempt a field goal Sunday in what turned into a lopsided affair, but he at least busted a string of missed extra-point attempts in four of the last five games. Next up is a Carolina defense that has held opponents to 27 or fewer points in each of the last six games, though there aren't many teams who can match the Chiefs' offense.

Badgley made all three of his field-goal attempts and added three extra points in Sunday's 31-30 loss against the Broncos.

After an extremely bumpy two games, Badgley finally turned it around and made every one of his attempts Sunday. Perhaps more importantly from a fantasy perspective, Badgley converted a 52-yard field goal in the third quarter, just his second field goal of 50 yards or more in two years. It'll be interesting to see if the 25-year-old can continue to be consistent in what figures to be a high octane matchup against the Raiders next week.

Carlson made three of four field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 16-6 win over the Browns.

Carlson extended his streak of eight-plus points to seven games, despite clanking the left upright on a 41-yard field-goal attempt during the Raiders' opening drive. He'll hope for more favorable weather conditions Week 9 in Los Angeles.

Elliott made his only extra-point attempt and did not try a field goal in Sunday's 23-9 win over the Cowboys.

It was Elliott's first game all year without a field-goal attempt, as Carson Wentz' four turnovers seriously reduced possible chances. The 25-year-old has not made more than one field goal since Week 3, has attempted more than two in a game just once all year and is heading into a Week 9 bye.

Sanders did not attempt a field goal during Sunday's 28-17 win over the Rams, though he did make all four of his extra-point tries.

Sanders' accuracy remains perfect on the year, leaving him as the only starting placekicker in the league with a 100 percent completion rate on both field goals and extra points. However, he's now seen two or less field-goal tries in five of seven contests, making him a potential low-floor fantasy option heading into an away game against the Cardinals in Week 9.

McManus made his lone field-goal attempt and all four extra-point tries during Sunday's 31-30 win over the Chargers.

The 29-year-old converted a 35-yard field goal during the first quarter and was successful on all the extra-point tries for Denver's four second-half touchdowns, including the game-winning PAT as time expired. McManus made six field goals Week 6, but he has only two attempts over the past two games. However, he draws an appealing fantasy matchup against the Falcons in Week 9.

Boswell didn't have any field-goal attempts but converted on all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Ravens.

The Steelers didn't attempt any field goals Sunday, but Boswell took care of business after four trips to the end zone as the team remained undefeated in 2020. Sunday marked the first game of the season in which the team didn't line up for a field goal, as the 29-year-old has gone 9-for-9 on his field-goal attempts while converting on 24 of his 25 extra-point tries. He'll face the Cowboys next week, a team that's provided a favorable matchup for opposing kickers this season.

Bass made his lone field-goal attempt and all three-extra point attempts during Sunday's 24-21 win over the Patriots.

The 23-year-old was called upon for eight field-goal attempts last week (he made six), but his only attempt Sunday was the game-winner, as he converted from 28 yards to break a 21-21 tie with four minutes left in the fourth quarter. Bass has endured an up-and-down rookie campaign, going 13-for-18 on field-goal attempts and 21-for-22 on extra-point attempts through eight games. A matchup with the Seahawks next week should provide plenty of opportunities for points for the Buffalo offense.

Lutz connected on four of five field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in the Saints' 26-23 OT win over the Bears on Sunday.

Lutz missed his first kick of the year in this one. He made up for the miss with a game-winning 35-yarder in overtime. Lutz will look to keep up his elite play in Week 9 against Tampa Bay.
