Former Broncos kicker Matt Prater and former Cardinals kicker Jay Feely are scheduled to work out for the Lions Tuesday, according to ESPN. The Lions announced Monday they released kicker Alex Henery, who missed three field goals in a loss to the Bills Sunday.

Former Bucs kicker Connor Barth is also expected to be at Tuesday's workout, according to the Detroit Free Press.

Chiefs kicker Cairo Santos nailed his only field-goal try from 42 yards and added two PATs in the loss at San Francisco. Santos is on a bye Week 6.

Jets kicker Nick Folk did not receive a field goal or extra point attempt Week 5.

The Jets were shut out, and did nothing on offense. Folk will look for more Week 6, when his team take on the Broncos. 

Broncos kicker Brandon McManus had a big game Week 5.

McManus hit just two of his three field goal attempts, but made up for that with five extra points. He was able to hit from 41 and 44 yards out, but missed from 53 yards away. He'll take on the Jets Week 6. 

Ravens kicker Justin Tucker knocked down a pair of field goals in a Week 5 defeat to the Colts.

Tucker booted a 52-yard field goal in the second quarter and a 27-yard field goal in the final period. He converted all two of his field goal attempts, adding one extra point in a 20-13 defeat.

Saints kicker Shayne Graham made three field goals and finished with a season-high 11 points during a 37-31 overtime win Week 5 against the Bucs. 

Graham made field goals of 29 and 30 yards in the first quarter, and then tied the game at 31 with a 44-yard field goal with 2:30 left in the fourth quarter. 

The Saints are back in action Week 7 at Detroit. The team is on a bye Week 6.

Panthers placekicker Graham Gano nailed a 44-yard field goal with four minutes left to tie the game and booted all four extra point attempts to help his team beat Chicago on Sunday.

His field goal came on his only try.

Falcons kicker Matt Bryant finished with eight points during a 30-20 loss Week 5 at N.Y. Giants. Bryant made a pair of 20-yard field goals in the second quarter and added two extra points in the loss.

Bryant has totaled at least eight points in three games this season. The Falcons are back in action Week 6 vs. Chicago.

Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein wasn't called upon to attempt a field goal in his team's 34-28 loss to the Eagles in Week 5.

Zuerlein nailed all four of his extra-point attempts, but the Rams lost a pair of fumbles in field-goal range to contribute to the kicker's quiet day. Zuerlein has kicked eight extra points over his last two games but has just one field goal over that stretch. The Rams will host the 49ers on Monday night in Week 6.

The Broncos probables are good to go Week 5 against the Cardinals.

Quinton Carter, Virgil Green, Brandon McManus, Danny Trevathan and Louis Vasquez will all play. Both Carter and Trevathan are dealing with knee injuries. Green is recovering from a concussion. McManus has an groin issue, and Vasquez is dealing with a rib injury.
