Lutz made a 29-yard field goal and all four extra-point attempts in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Buccaneers.

Following a monster four field-goal performance in Week 4, Lutz was only called upon for chip shots against the divisional foe. He was perfect, though, and he's now connected on 11 of 12 field-goal attempts and 10 of 11 extra points this year.

Santos missed all four of his field-goal attempts in Week 5 against Buffalo. He did convert his lone extra-point attempt.

Santos had a disastrous day and cost the Titans a chance at victory. Two of his kicks came from 50 and 53 yards, making them a bit more excusable. On the other hand, he also missed a 36-yard attempt and had another 33-yard effort blocked. Overall, it was a disastrous day for Santos, who may now be on the hot seat while filling in for the injured Ryan Succop (knee).

Gonzalez made four of five field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries during Sunday's win over the Bengals.

Gonzalez missed one field goal during Sunday's win, but he more than made up for any mistakes by securing the Cardinals' first win of the season. Due to the struggles of Arizona's offense in the red zone, Gonzalez is benefiting from substantial weekly opportunity.

Slye missed both his field-goal attempts and one of his five extra-point tries in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Jaguars.

Slye had been excellent through his first four NFL appearances, but he showed some rookie vulnerability Sunday. Although his first miss was not only blocked, but was from an excusable distance of 56 yards, he missed wide right from 46 on his second attempt. Slye then sailed it right again on his final extra-point effort, which left the Panthers only up seven with under four minutes left. Overall, it was Slye's worst showing yet, and his first game with under eight points this season. He'll look to improve his accuracy against the Bucs in London in Week 6.

Boswell made all three of his field-goals (29, 33, 41) and both PATs in Sunday's 26-23 overtime loss to the Ravens.

Boswell is now perfect in six straight games dating back to last season, with two or more field goals in five of those games. The offense has been erratic and will likely be led by rookie Devlin Hodges in Week 6 against a Chargers defense that allows opposing kickers just four fantasy points per game, fifth fewest in the league.

Bryant went 3-for-3 on extra-point attempts and made his lone field-goal try of 35 yards during the Falcons' 53-32 loss to Houston on Sunday.

The 44-year-old kicker enjoyed his second performance of 2019 with both a perfect rate on field goals and point-after attempts, but the volume has simply not been there for him to be a viable fantasy leg. Bryant has averaged less than one field-goal make per game, with no more than six points in any outing this season after exceeding that number six times in 13 appearances last year. Week 6 offers a chance for Bryant to establish a new season-best outing, facing an Arizona defense that ranks bottom five in red-zone scoring attempts allowed per game.

Fairbairn went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-7 on extra-point kicks for 11 points in Sunday's 53-32 win over Atlanta in Week 5.

Fairbairn reached double-digit scoring for the first time in 2019, a feat he accomplished seven times last season, and he also made his first kick from 50-plus yards. Sunday's missed extra points ended up not being a factor, but Fairbairn's failed to convert three extra points this season and could have had a fourth but was saved by a penalty. Houston head coach Bill O'Brien said he was not worried about Fairbairn when asked about his misses during the practice week leading into Sunday's tilt, but that could change as the misses pile up or become costly. While he's been shaky in post-touchdown kicks, Fairbairn's been good when asked to convert field goals. He's 5-for-7 in that area, with his two misses coming from beyond the 50-yard-line.

Gay made his only field-goal attempt from 42 yards out and also drilled all three of his extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 31-24 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Gay put together his second consecutive flawless performance, certainly encouraging after he'd missed a game-winning attempt in Week 3 against the Giants. The rookie continues to benefit from the Buccaneers' solid offense, which is just inconsistent enough to afford him a nice complement of field-goal opportunities alongside his point-after tries. Gay will look to make it three straight perfect efforts when the Buccaneers travel to London to face the division-rival Panthers in Week 6.

Pineiro booted three extra points in the Bears' 24-21 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

After having attempted multiple field goals in each of the previous three games, Pineiro didn't line up for a single three-pointer in this contest. Aside from this performance, he's been an average fantasy option, as he's tied to an offense that hasn't exactly been explosive this year.

Badgley (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Broncos.

Badgley wasn't expected to play in this game after being tagged as doubtful. Chase McLaughlin, a rookie out of Illinois, will make his NFL debut in his place.
