Butker hit on all four of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts Sunday against the Vikings.

Butker's last two field goals were the biggest of the day, as he nailed a 54-yard attempt with less than three minutes left to tie it and a 44-yard attempt to win it as the clock ticked to all zeros. He's knocked home 86 percent (19-for-22) of his field-goal attempts on the year, with two of his three misses coming from 50-plus yards out.

Gay made field-goal attempts of 41 and 45 yards, missed a 50-yard try wide left and drilled all four extra-point attempts in the Buccaneers' 40-34 overtime loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

The rookie's one miss came at the end of the first half and served as his first from 50 yards and greater this season. Gay has been an excellent source of fantasy production overall, as the combination of Bruce Arians' aggressive offensive scheme and Jameis Winston's tendency to stall drives on occasion have led to an abundance of kicking opportunities. Factoring in Sunday's miss, Gay still sports a solid 84.2 percent success rate on field goals and has also been true on 20 of 22 point-after tries.

Elliott made all three of his field-goal attempts but just one of his two extra-point tries in Sunday's 22-14 win over Chicago.

Elliott finally got a third field-goal chance in a game and converted all of them but missed an extra point for the second week in a row. Despite his highest point total of the year, he'll need to replaced with a bye coming in Week 10.

Prater converted his lone field-goal attempt and all three PATs during Sunday's 31-24 loss to Oakland.

Prater is now one of three active kickers to have converted at least 15 field goals in 12 consecutive seasons, which is obviously a testament to how long the 35-year-old has been a quality fantasy option. Sunday could have been a bigger day if the Lions hadn't had to go for it on fourth down with three seconds to play, though it's nonetheless disappointing Prater wasn't given more chances to produce in this relatively soft matchup. Make sure the weather isn't a factor, but it's possible he could bounce back on the road in Week 10 against a regressing Bears defense that isn't quite elite in every defensive category anymore.

Badgley (groin) made four of his five field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in the 26-11 win over the Packers on Sunday.

The Chargers were unable to convert in the red zone despite dominating time of possession throughout the first half, Badgley immediately was forced into a heavy workload, connecting on four chip-shot field goals throughout the first three quarters before finally missing a fairly insignificant attempt with the game already well in hand. Badgley missed the first eight games of the season after re-aggravating a groin injury to begin the season, but the second-year kicker was an excellent fantasy option in his rookie campaign thanks to a dynamic Chargers offense that now appears to be picking up steam in 2019.

Hopkins converted all three field-goal tries during Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Bills.

Hopkins accounted for the entirety of Washington's points for a second straight week. In the last two games, Hopkins has exceeded his field-goal count from the first seven weeks of the season. He'll remain difficult to trust for fantasy production as long as the Redskins' inability to consistently move the offense lingers.

Folk made both field-goal tries and both extra-point tries during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Ravens.

Folk converted two field goals, from 22 yards and 19 yards, during his first game with the Patriots. His accuracy is a piece of good news for New England, with long-time kicker Stephen Gostkowski (hip) on IR, but it's worth noting that Folk still remains untested outside of chip shots. After the Patriots' bye, the 34-year-old will look to log another strong performance against the Eagles in Week 11.

McManus converted his only field-goal attempt, from 43 yards, and all three extra-point tries during Sunday's 24-19 win over the Browns.

McManus did all he was asked during the Week 9 victory. He's made 15 of 18 field-goal attempts and 12 of 13 extra-point tries on the year. After the Broncos' bye, McManus is slated for a tough Week 10 contest against the Vikings.

Sanders made one of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries during Sunday's 26-18 win over the Jets.

The Dolphins' first win of the season overshadows Sanders' recent struggles, as he missed his fourth kick of the season Week 9. The 2018 seventh-round pick has converted just six of 10 field-goal tries through eight games, though he has been perfect on all 11 extra-point attempts.

Myers converted two of four field-goal attempts and two of three extra-point tries in Sunday's 40-34 overtime win against the Buccaneers.

Myers missed a field goal from 47 yards in the first half. If Myers would've made that try, he wouldn't have faced so much pressure to connect on a 40-yard attempt as time expired in regulation. He missed that attempt as well, sending the game to overtime. Myers continues to be inconsistent from distance, as he's converted three of seven tries from beyond 40 yards. He'll look to get back on track in Week 10 against the 49ers.
