Greg Joseph Misses Game-Winning Field Goal

The life of an NFL kicker can be tough. Coming off a game-winning field goal last week, Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph had to be feeling good going into the matchup against the Carolina Panthers. But two missed fourth-quarter field goals, one of which was another potential game-winner, brought the Vikings kicker back down to […]

Jason Myers Rolls In Week 6

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers hasn't had his best thus far, but he had a week of perfection against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 6. Myers went 4-for-4 on kicking opportunities, with two of those attempts being field goals, including one as time expired in regulation to send the game into overtime. Myers is going […]

Chris Boswell Hits Three Field Goals In Week 6

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell made all three of his field goals, including a 37-yarder to win it in overtime, in a 23-20 victory over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6.

Chase McLaughlin Makes Both Of His Extra Points

Cleveland Browns kicker Chase McLaughlin made both of his extra-point attempts in a 37-14 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6.

Brandon McManus Remains Perfect In Week 6 Loss

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus didn't see a lot of work in the Week 6 blowout loss to the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, but he did manage to stay perfect on the season. McManus made his lone field-goal attempt from 32 yards out and all three of his extra-point tries in the 34-24 loss. That […]

Matt Gay Perfect In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay had dealt with some misses over the last couple of weeks, but he turned things around with some perfection in Week 6 against the New York Giants. Gay went 6-for-6 on his kicking opportunities, with five of them coming on extra points. Gay remains one of the best kicker […]

Mason Crosby Puts Dreadful Week 5 Performance Behind Him

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby finished with a field goal, a 39-yard conversion, during the win over Chicago on Sunday. He also nailed all three of his extra-point attempts. The 37-year-old had a miserable outing during the overtime win over the Cincinnati Bengals. However, it was still a welcome outing for the fantasy managers […]

Graham Gano Drills Only Field Goal Attempt In Week 6 Loss

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano converted his only field goal attempt during Sunday's 38-11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He drilled it from 27 yards out in the third quarter to put the Giants on the scoreboard. The 34-year-old has now made 12-of-14 field goal attempts over six games in 2021. Gano is […]

Evan McPherson Reliable In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson had another perfect outing during the win over Detroit on Sunday.

He has now been successful on all 17 of his XP tries on the year, and besides missing both field goals […]

Zane Gonzalez Makes Two Field Goals In Week 6

Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez connected on two field goals and two extra-point attempts in Sunday's loss to Minnesota. Since joining the team in Week 2, Gonzalez has missed only two field goals and one extra point. He is 8-for-10 on field goals and 12-for-13 in extra points. The 26-year-old is proving to be a […]

Michael Badgley Converts 41-Yard Field Goal Attempt In Week 6

Indianapolis Colts kicker Michael Badgley converted his lone 41-yard field goal attempt and all four extra-point attempts during a 31-3 blowout win over the Houston Texans in Week 6.

Ka'imi Fairbairn Makes Lone Field Goal Sunday

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn made one field-goal attempt in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Colts. Fairbairn didn't get any help from a bad Texans offense, which stalled out on most of their drives while turning the ball over three times. The former Pro Bowler has been unimpressive since returning from injury last week- and […]

Dustin Hopkins Makes Two Field Goals

Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins made two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 31-13 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs. As of now, Hopkins has the look of a reliable streaming option if fantasy managers need to fill in for any upcoming bye weeks. In the future, he should […]

Jason Sanders Remains A Lowly Option

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders signed a long-term extension before the season. However, he has been off to a slow start through the first six games. To be fair, the Dolphins offense has been horrendous, which doesn't give him many chances to make field goals. In Week 6, Sanders connected on two of three field-goal […]

Brandon McManus - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus will be looking to stay perfect in a big matchup against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6. McManus has made all 11 of his field-goal attempts and all nine of his extra-point tries through five weeks to rank him as the No. 8 fantasy kicker. The move from […]

Rodrigo Blankenship Won't Kick In Week 6

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that kicker Rodrigo Blankenship (groin) will be out for Week 6 against the Houston Texans. Blankenship has been a low-end streaming option in fantasy through the first five weeks of the season by making 11 of his 14 field-goal opportunities and seven of his eight extra points, but […]

Daniel Carlson - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson could have a big week for his team as they visit the Denver Broncos this Sunday. The 26-year-old has been a big x-factor for Vegas as they have gone up against tough defenses and has only missed one of his 10 field goals attempts so far this season. Carlson's […]

Zane Gonzalez - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez is not a strong play in Week 6. In four games with Carolina, the kicker has gone 6-for-8 in field goals and 10-for-11 in extra points. The Panthers don't have the most high-powered offense and the unit has struggled in some games this season, meaning the chances for Gonzalez may […]

Dustin Hopkins - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins could be a solid streaming option in Week 6 in what should be a high-scoring affair between Washington and Kansas City. Hopkins made all three of his field-goal attempts in Week 5 and seems to be earning back the trust of the coaching staff. Taylor Heinicke should be able […]

Greg Joseph - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

After missing a potential game-winning field goal in Week 2, Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph took advantage of his chance at redemption in Week 5, nailing a 54-yard field goal on the last play of the game to secure a 19-17 win over the Detroit Lions. Joseph has connected on 10 of 12 field-goal attempts […]

Jake Elliott Misses A Field Goal In Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott missed his only field goal attempt in a Week 6 loss to the Tampa Bay Bucs. He did make both of his extra point tries, though. Elliott's miss came from 46 yards out. He continues to be a low-volume kicker with a below-average leg. He shouldn't be rostered in almost […]

Randy Bullock - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock has been solid in 2021, converting nine of 11 field-goal attempts and 10 of 11 extra-point tries over five weeks. Monday's game between the Buffalo Bills and Titans has a high over/under of 54, with Tennessee's team implied total projected at 24. The Bills defense has been stout this season, […]

Chris Boswell - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell has been mostly accurate in 2021, making eight of nine field goals and all 10 of his extra points through five games. He will look to keep it going when he takes on the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 6. The Seahawks are allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per […]
