Sanders converted all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 28-20 win over the Raiders.

Sanders did not attempt a single field goal. Despite showing reliable accuracy thus far, Miami's offense doesn't seem likely to offer Sanders the volume needed to serve as a top fantasy option at the position. The rookie will look to build upon an impressive beginning to the season in Week 4's matchup against the Patriots.

Gano converted from 40 yards on his lone field-goal attempt and made all four of his extra-point tries en route to seven points in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Bengals.

Gano has now made all 11 kicks he's been faced with through the first three weeks. That gives him a total of 17 points heading into Carolina's bye week.

Hopkins converted his only field-goal attempt during Sunday's 31-17 win over the Packers. He also made all four of his extra points.

Sunday marked the second time in just three games that Hopkins has been held to just one field-goal attempt, as opportunities have thus far evaded him in 2018. The Redskins are on a bye in Week 4, and though he's a reliable kicker, he's not worth holding on to while he's idle.

Tucker drilled two of his three field goals while knocking in all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-14 win over Denver.

It was a rare block against Tucker that made for the crooked stat line. Otherwise, Tucker, who has rightfully earned the reputation as one of the league's most reliable kickers, was perfect on the day. The veteran helped Baltimore distance itself in the first half by draining a pair of 52-yard boots and figures to be an asset as the Ravens seek to get back to the playoffs.

Elliott made two of his three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 20-16 win over Indianapolis and tacked on two extra points.

Elliott missed wide left from 55 yards in the first quarter before quickly rebounding to make a 33-yard try in the second and tying the game at 13 in the third from 24 yards out. The second-year kicker has now missed his only two opportunities of more than 40 yards this season, but he's perfect on three tries from closer in. The Memphis product will try to find success from long range on the road at Tennessee in Week 4.

Maher kicked two field goals and an extra point in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

His 50-yard field goal in the second quarter gave the Cowboys their first points of the day. After a shaky NFL debut in Week 1, Maher hasn't missed a kick in the two games since, but the team's lackluster offense limits his fantasy ceiling heading into a Week 4 tilt with the Lions.

Prater converted all four of his field-goal attempts and both PATs during Sunday's 26-10 victory over the Patriots.

Those who've stuck with Prater in the wake of his disappointing regular-season debut were handsomely rewarded Sunday, and the kicker has now converted six field goals and five extra points over the last two weeks. Considering no other kicker leaguewide has attempted as many field goals through three games -- coupled with the improving state of the Lions offense -- Prater has reestablished himself as one of the better fantasy options at his position.

Sturgis made his only field-goal attempt Sunday, but made just two of his three extra-point attempts in the 35-23 loss to the Rams.

Sturgis' missed extra point didn't exactly come back to bite the Chargers, but it's clear that special teams problems are still plaguing this team. Sturgis has failed to generate much fantasy production, but that's thanks in large part to the team's ability to convert in the red zone. He'll face the 49ers in Week 4.

Bryant did not attempt a field goal, but connected on all three of his point-after tries during Sunday's 43-37 overtime loss to New Orleans.

Fantasy owners invested in Falcons skill-position players are thrilled with the team's red-zone resurgence Sunday, but those with stock in Bryant are underwhelmed with the veteran kicker's production through Week 3. Bryant has yet to break eight points (standard scoring) in any of Atlanta's games this year, and his three-point outing against the Saints marks his lowest output since Week 7 of the 2017 season. He hasn't missed a field-goal try yet this year, but the volume just hasn't been there, as Bryant has only three attempts to his credit on the young season.

Fairbairn converted all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in the Week 3 loss to the Giants.

Houston's offense was unable to finish in the red zone Sunday, scoring just twice in five trips inside the 20, which enabled Fairbairn's highest scoring output of the season. His 54-yarder was a season long and gives him four makes in six attempts beyond the 50-yard line for his career.
