Colts' Michael Badgley: Makes four kicks in Week 9 loss
Badgley made both of his field-goal attempts and his two extra-point tries during the Colts' 27-20 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Badgley connected on field goals from 52 and 53 yards in the fourth quarter as the Colts attempted to battle back from a 17-point deficit. His two makes from 50-plus yards matches a career high he set in 2020 and 2022 with the Chargers and Lions, respectively. Since replacing Spencer Shrader (knee), Badgley has made all five of his field-goal attempts and has gone 14-for-15 on extra-point tries across four regular-season games.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Doesn't miss Sunday
Badgley went a perfect 1-for-1 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.
The kicker hit a 43-yarder in the first quarter and then just rode his high-scoring offense to five more points throughout the rest of the game. Since replacing Spencer Shrader, who is out for the season with a knee injury, Badgley has made at least three extra points in all three games he's played in, and he has only missed once, going 12-of-13 on extra points and 3-for-3 on field goals. The kicker job on one of the league's best offenses should be his for the foreseeable future.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Misses extra point Sunday
Badgley went 1-for-1 on field-goal tries and 3-for-4 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers.
The kicker's miss came after Indianapolis scored on its first drive of the game. After that, he did make every kick, including a 36-yard field goal in the second quarter that put the Colts up by 20. In two games since replacing the injured Spencer Shrader (knee), who is out for the season, Badgley is 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and 7-for-8 on extra-point attempts, which should be good enough to help him keep the job for another week.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Perfect in season debut
Badgley made his only field-goal attempt and went 4-for-4 on PATs in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Cardinals.
Badgley was signed by the Colts earlier in the week, replacing Spencer Shrader (knee) as the team's starting kicker after Shrader was placed on injured reserve with a season-ending knee injury. Badgley made a 45-yard field goal in the third quarter, tying up the game at 17-17. The kicker is familiar with Lucas Oil Stadium, having gone 18-for-21 on field-goal tries over 12 games with Indianapolis in 2021, and he'll look to build off of his Week 6 performance moving forward.

Colts' Michael Badgley: New kicker in Indy
Badgley agreed to a contract with the Colts on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
With Spencer Shrader (knee) suffering a season-ending injury in Sunday's 40-6 win over the Raiders, the Colts worked out eight kickers Tuesday. Badgley ultimately emerged from the tryout with a contract, and he'll now have the opportunity to kick for a Colts squad that has fielded a surprisingly prolific offense through the first five weeks. Despite having his day cut short by the injury in Week 5, Shrader had racked up an NFL-high 53 points while knocking down 13 of 14 field-goal tries on the season. With a career 82.4 percent success rate on field goals over stops with five different teams in his career, Badgley can't be counted on to match the accuracy Shrader had displayed, but the 30-year-old should at least benefit from playing his home games indoors. Badgley looks like a worthy pickup in fantasy leagues for managers seeking a fill-in for Shrader or a replacement for a kicker who is on bye or isn't tethered to as formidable of an offense as Indianapolis.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Entering free agency healthy
Detroit cleared Badgley from the groin injury that landed him on the injured reserve list for the entire 2024 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Badgley suffered a torn hamstring during the first week of training camp last year, so his last playing sample comes from 2023, when over four games he made all four of his field-goal tries and 13 of his 15 extra-point attempts. Jake Bates had an impressive rookie campaign with the Lions in 2024, so Badgley will likely be looking for a new team in 2025.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Moves to IR
The Lions placed Badgley (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday.
Badgley tore his hamstring during practice Thursday and will be out for the entire 2024 campaign. The veteran was slated to compete for the opportunity to be Detroit's kicker for the upcoming campaign, so the team will likely bring another kicker into training camp to push Jake Bates for the role. Bates was signed by the Lions in June after a record-setting performance in the UFL this spring, but he's yet to take a snap in the NFL.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Suffers season-ending injury
Badgley suffered a season-ending hamstring injury during Thursday's practice, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
A torn hamstring during the first week of training camp will end Badgley's season before it really began, with the Lions reportedly planning to place him on injured reserve in the coming days. Jake Bates, a 2023 UDFA and breakout performer with the UFL's Michigan Panthers this past spring, is left as the only kicker on the roster, but it presumably won't be long before the team brings in some competition. Whoever ends up winning the job could have fantasy value even if they're inexperienced, as the Lions had one of the better offenses in the league last season and return most of their key pieces for 2024.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Re-signs with Lions
Badgley is re-signing with the Lions on a one-year contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Badgley spent much of 2023 on Detroit's practice squad before eventually replacing a struggling Riley Patterson for the final four games of the regular season and the playoffs. Badgley converted each of his seven field-goal attempts and 24 of 26 PATs after taking over, but he'll likely have to compete with Patterson or another kicker to win the job in 2024.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Converts four field goals in 2023
Badgley converted four of four field-goal attempts and 13 of 15 PATs over four games in 2023.
Once Detroit lost patience with Riley Patterson after missing two PATs in three games, Badgley was brought in with mixed results. Not only did he miss two PATs in his four regular-season games, the strong-legged kicker only converted one field goal from over 40 yards over this stretch with just one more from at least this range over three postseason games. Now set to become an unrestricted free agent, Badgley is not locked in as Detroit's starting kicker entering the 2024 campaign.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Another missed PAT
Badgley converted his lone field-goal attempt and three of four PATs during Sunday's 30-20 win over the Vikings.
While Badgley remains perfect on field-goal tries this year, he missed an extra-point attempt for the second time in three weeks. The Miami (Fla.) product thus finishes the regular season with four field goals and 12 PATs in four games for Detroit -- numbers that reflect the Lions' success in ending drives with touchdowns down the stretch. Badgley will look to tack on more production against the Rams in the NFC wild card round.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Converts two field goals
Badgley converted both of his field-goal attempts and his lone PAT during Saturday's 20-19 loss to Dallas.
After missing an extra-point try last week in Minnesota, Badgley redeemed himself with a flawless game that could have been bigger if not for Detroit's aggressiveness on fourth down and two-point attempts. The strong-legged Badgley will again have some upside as a fantasy option when the Lions' high-powered offense returns home for a regular-season finale against the Vikings in Week 18.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Signed to active roster
The Lions signed Badgley to the active roster from their practice squad Friday.
Badgley was eligible for his third and final elevation ahead of Saturday's game at Dallas, but Detroit opted to sign him to the active roster outright, signifying its confidence in the placekicker for the final two outings of the regular season and however long the team lasts in the playoffs. In two games to date, he's netted his only field-goal attempt (37 yards) and struck true on nine of 10 point-after tries.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Back on practice squad
Badgley reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
For a second game in a row, Badgley jumped up from Detroit's practice squad to serve as the team's placekicker Sunday at Minnesota. In the end, he made his only field-goal attempt (37 yards) and three of four point-after tries. With Riley Patterson out of the picture after the Lions waived him last week, Badgley is poised to handle kicking duties while attached to a productive offense moving forward. Whether or not the team elevates Badgley or outright signs him to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game at Dallas remains to be seen, but he has just one elevation left before the latter transaction will need to take place.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Bumps up from practice squad
The Lions elevated Badgley from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game at Minnesota.
Badgley swapped in for Riley Patterson as Detroit's placekicker last Saturday against the Broncos and made all six point-after tries presented to him. The team then waived Patterson on Tuesday, paving the way for Badgley to handle all kicking duties for the Lions moving forward. After Sunday, Detroit can elevate Badgley one more time before needing to sign him to the active roster, but it could clear up any questions about his standing by doing so in advance of Week 17 action.
