Carlson made two of three field-goal attempts and converted a pair of extra points in Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots.

Carlson missed a 41-yard field-goal attempt wide left for his first failure of the 2020 season after remaining perfect through Week 2, though he still managed to log eight points in New England. The Raiders now return home to Las Vegas for a tough matchup against the undefeated Bills.

Slye made all five of his field-goal attempts but missed his only extra-point try in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Chargers.

Slye nailed kicks from 29, 24, 30, 22 and 31 yards as Carolina's offense failed to score touchdowns from in close. The one time the Panthers did find the end zone, however, Slye's extra-point try was blocked. Although he'll be disappointed by having missed two of his five PATs so far, with a season-high 15 points Sunday, Slye still sports a healthy 30 through three weeks.

Fairbairn did not attempt a field goal and was successful on all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 28-21 loss to Pittsburgh in Week 3.

The Texans' wildly inconsistent offense has rendered Fairbairn unplayable -- he's recorded two, 10 and three points through the first three games. Notably, six of Houston's 10 drives ended in three-and-outs Sunday, naturally capping Fairbairn's upside.

Lutz connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point attempts in the Saints' 37-30 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Lutz continued his accurate ways, nailing all six of his kicks in the loss. Through three weeks, he's perfect on six field-goal tries and all 10 extra-point attempts. A matchup with Detroit in Week 4 should offer plenty of chances for Lutz to keep his hot streak going.

Koo suffered a leg strain prior to Sunday's game against the Bears, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Koo's injury explains why he didn't handle kickoff duties Sunday. The 26-year-old also had a pair of misses during the loss to Chicago, as he converted two of three field-goal tries and two of three extra-point attempts. He'll look to get fully healthy before Week 4's game against the Packers on Monday Night Football rolls around.

Santos made one of two field-goal attempts in Chicago's 30-26 victory over the Falcons on Sunday.

For the second week in a row, Santos missed a field-goal attempt, and it's unlikely that he'll stand in the way of teammate Eddy Pineiro (groin) taking back his roster spot when Pineiro's ready to return from injured reserve. Although Pineiro is eligible to return next week, there has been no word as to when the team will be faced with a roster decision.

Boswell made both his field-goal attempts and both his extra-point tries during Sunday's 28-21 win over the Texans.

He connected on a 33-yard field goal to get Pittsburgh on the scoreboard and closed out his day with a 26-yard field goal, with two PATs sandwiched in between. Boswell has been a must-start option in all fantasy formats this season but faces a Tennessee defense in Week 4 that yields just 4.7 points per game to opposing kickers.

Sanders converted his sole field-goal attempt and all four extra-point tries during Thursday's 31-13 win over the Jaguars.

Sanders remains perfect on the year, though he's now been held to a single field-goal attempt in two of three games. Despite his flawless accuracy, Sanders' low volume of attempts robs him of a reliable fantasy ceiling.

Carlson made both his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Monday night's 34-24 win over the Saints.

Carlson sealed the game by drilling a 54-yarder with just over a minute remaining. The kicker also converted from 28 yards as the first-half clock expired. With 10 points and no misses in back-to-back outings, Carlson is in good form ahead of Week 3's game versus the Patriots.

McManus converted two of three field goals -- from 49 and 27 yards out -- and made an extra-point during Sunday's 26-21 loss in Pittsburgh. He missed a 58-yard attempt.

McManus attempted his first three field-goal tries of the season after signing his megadeal to remain in Denver just prior to the start of the season. No one will begrudge McManus for missing a 58-yarder in a very difficult stadium in which to kick, but how McManus performs with longer kicks bears watching. He's been nearly automatic from inside 50 yards since the start of 2018, converting 47 of his 49 attempts. Despite a huge leg, however, he's just six for 15 from 50 and out.
