Slye went 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and made both of his PATs in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chargers.
Slye was able to get back on track in Week 9, making a 49-yard field goal in the second quarter and a 37-yarder in the fourth. The kicker has now made multiple field goals in six contests this year, and he's connected on 17 of 23 field-goal attempts, including 6-for-9 from 50-plus yards, through eight games overall.

Titans' Joey Slye: Misses long field goal Sunday
Rotowire
Slye connected on both extra-point tries but missed his only field-goal attempt in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Colts.
The kicker booted the ball wide right on a 58-yard attempt late in the first half. Slye is now just 15-of-20 on field-goal tries in 2025, and all of the misses have been from 40 yards or longer. The veteran has also attempted just eight extra points in seven games due to his struggling offense.

Titans' Joey Slye: Makes all three kicks Week 7
Rotowire
Slye went 2-for-2 on his field-goal attempts and made his lone point-after try during the Titans' 31-13 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Slye got the scoring started with a 49-yard field goal early in the first quarter, and he tacked on a 50-yarder near the end of the first half to give the Titans a 13-10 lead. He was unable to play in Week 6 against the Raiders due to a calf injury, but the veteran kicker progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Sunday. Slye has connected on 15 of 19 field-goal attempts and has gone 5-for-6 on extra-point tries through six regular-season games.

Titans' Joey Slye: Cleared to face former team
Rotowire
Slye (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Slye was limited in all three of Tennessee's practices after sitting out the Week 6 loss to the Raiders, but he evidently looked healthy enough to avoid an injury designation. The Titans cut Matthew Wright on Friday after Wright filled in for Slye in Week 6, providing another indicator of the team's confidence in Slye's health. Slye's opportunities could be limited since the Titans are scoring only 13.8 points per game and the Patriots are allowing just 20.0 points per game.

Titans' Joey Slye: Upgrades to limited practice
Rotowire
Slye (calf) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Slye wasn't able to practice in any capacity before being ruled out for the Titans' loss to the Raiders in Week 6, so for him to now log limited activity is a tangible step in the right direction. If Slye can upgrade to full practice reps Thursday and/or Friday, he could avoid an injury designation entirely for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots.

Slye (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
With Slye sidelined, fellow kicker Matthew Wright is slated to be elevated from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's contest. Slye's next chance to see game action will arrive Sunday, Oct. 19 against the Patriots.

Titans' Joey Slye: DNP again with calf injury
Rotowire
Slye (calf) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice.
It's Slye's first week on the injury report this season, and back-to-back DNPs certainly puts his status for Week 6 against the Raiders in question. Matthew Wright was recently signed to the Titans' practice squad as insurance.

Titans' Joey Slye: Absent for second straight practice
Rotowire
Slye (calf) didn't practice Thursday.
He'll miss out on a second straight practice while he tends to a right calf injury. The Titans signed Matthew Wright to their practice squad Wednesday, and he'll presumably be elevated in the event Slye isn't able to handle kicking duties in Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Titans' Joey Slye: Misses practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Slye didn't practice Wednesday due to a right calf injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Slye made all three of his field-goal attempts and went 1-for-2 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 22-21 win over the Cardinals, but with an absence from practice to start the current week, the kicker's status is worth monitoring ahead of this weekend's game against the Raiders. If Slye is unavailable versus Las Vegas, Matthew Wright is a candidate for a practice-squad elevation.

Titans' Joey Slye: Hits every field goal Sunday
Rotowire
Slye went 3-for-3 on field goals and 1-for-2 on extra points in Sunday's 22-21 win over the Cardinals.
Slye made field goals from 44, 51 and 29 yards, respectively. The kicker connected on just 2-of-6 field-goal attempts in the previous two games. At the moment, he's a somewhat unreliable kicker on a low-scoring team.

Titans' Joey Slye: Misses both kicks vs. Houston
Rotowire
Slye went 0-for-2 on his field-goal attempts during the Titans' 26-0 loss to the Texans.
Very little went right for the Titans' offense Sunday, but Slye wasn't able to get Tennessee on the board after missing field-goal attempts from 41 and 43 yards in the first and second quarter, respectively. Slye started the season 8-for-8 on field goals but has gone just 2-for-6 over the last two games. Slye and the Titans will look to turn things around in their Week 5 road clash against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 5.

Titans' Joey Slye: Connects on four FGAs in loss
Rotowire
Slye went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and also made an extra-point try in Sunday's 33-19 loss to the Rams.
Slye was once again rather busy in Week 2, connecting on a 55-yard field goal and 37-yarder in the second quarter. He later added makes from 57 yards and 35 yards in the second half. Through two games in 2025, Slye has made all eight of his field-goal tries, including five makes from 50-plus yards.

Titans' Joey Slye: Catches on with Tennessee
Rotowire
Slye agreed to a contract with the Titans on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The well-traveled Slye will catch on with an eighth different organization since going undrafted out of Virginia Tech in 2018. After being cut by the Jaguars last spring, Slye quickly caught on with New England on a one-year deal and emerged as the victor over Chad Ryland in the battle for kicking duties during training camp and the preseason. Slye proceeded to play in all 17 of New England's games in 2024, converting 26 of 33 field-goal attempts and 25 of 26 extra-point tries. The 28-year-old currently is the only kicker on the Titans roster, but the team will almost certainly add some competition before training camp.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Finishes 2024 strong
Rotowire
Slye made all three of his field-goal tries and both of his extra-point attempts during the Patriots' 23-16 win over the Bills on Sunday.
Slye hadn't attempted a field goal in the Patriots' last two games entering Week 18, but he was kept busy Sunday as backup quarterback Joe Milton led New England on five scoring drives. All three of Slye's field-goal attempts came in the second half, with his 43 and 50-yard field goals in the fourth quarter extending the Patriots' lead. Slye will finish the 2024 regular season having made 26 of 33 field-goal attempts (78.8 percent) and 25 of 26 extra-point tries. He signed a one-year deal with the Patriots in May of 2024 and will enter the offseason as a free agent.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Makes lone extra-point attempt
Rotowire
Slye converted on his lone extra-point try during the Patriots' 40-7 loss to the Chargers on Saturday.
It was another quiet day for Slye as the Patriots' offense struggled to move the ball down the field and was limited to 181 yards against a stout Chargers defense. Slye hasn't attempted a field goal over his last two games, and through 16 regular-season games he's gone 23-for-30 on field-goal attempts and 23-for-24 on extra-point tries.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Limited to extra points
Rotowire
Slye converted all three of his extra-point attempts in New England's 24-21 loss to Buffalo on Sunday.
Slye did not attempt a field goal Sunday for just the second time this season as all three of the Patriots' scoring drives resulted in touchdowns. Slye was a fairly accurate kicker through the first 11 games of the regular season, going 19-for-22 on field-goal attempts and 15-for-16 on extra-point tries over that span. He's made all seven of his extra-point attempts in his last four games, but across that span he's also gone 4-for-8 on field-goal attempts, with two of those misses coming from within 50 yards. Slye and the Patriots head back to New England for Week 17 to host the Chargers on Saturday.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Misses two FGAs in loss
Rotowire
Slye went 3-for-5 on field-goal tries while making his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Colts.
Slye began his day with three straight field-goal makes from 35 yards, 31 yards and 54 yards versus Indianapolis. He then missed a chip-shot 25-yarder on the team's final possession of the first half before later missing a nearly impossible 68-yard attempt to end the game. The kicker has now made 22 of 28 field-goal tries while going 17-for-18 on PATs in 2024.
Slye made one of his two field-goal tries and converted both of his two extra-point attempts during Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss at Tennessee.
Both of Slye's field-goal tries in Week 9 came from longer than 50 yards out, a tough ask for any kicker. But after such a close loss, the Patriots will probably look back on the 56-yarder he missed in the first quarter as a squandered opportunity. New England's struggling offense will get another stiff test in Week 10 at Chicago.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Quiet day in Week 8 win
Rotowire
Slye made his only field-goal attempt and converted on both extra-point tries in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Jets.
Slye was successful on a 23-yard chip shot in the fourth quarter, which gave the Patriots a one-point lead with 7:36 left to play in the game. Slye is now 11-for-13 on field-goal attempts and 11-for-11 on extra-point tries through the first seven games of the regular season.

Patriots' Joey Slye: Not heavily involved in loss
Rotowire
Slye made his only field-goal try and converted his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 32-16 loss to the Jaguars.
Slye's 41-yarder early in the second quarter put the Patriots up 10-0, but momentum quickly swung in Jacksonville's favor afterwards, leaving Slye without any further scoring chances. Though New England's office has improved since Drake Maye took over as starter, it remains one of the worst in the league by many metrics so far this season, rendering Slye non-viable in most fantasy formats.
