  • One make, one miss from deep

    Zuerlein connected on a 57-yard field goal but also missed a 53-yard attempt in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Bears. He made all four of his PAT attempts.

    Analysis: Zuerlein showed off his impressive leg strength in the final minute of the first half, connecting from 57 yards out with plenty of height to spare while kicking through a steady rain. Given the conditions, his miss from 53 with the game well in hand in the fourth was forgivable. Prior to Zuerlein's first official attempt, he lined up for a 36-yard field goal, but punter Braden Mann fumbled on the hold and threw the ball away for an incomplete pass. With New York's offense trending up after Mike…read more

  • Nails tough field goal

    Zuerlein connected on his lone field-goal attempt from 45 yards out in Sunday's 10-3 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Zuerlein's game-tying kick in the second quarter was originally from 40 yards. He aimed it outside the upright, but the strong crosswind blew it in between the goal posts. Unfortunately for Zuerlein, the Jets were whistled for delay of game on the play, but the veteran kicker executed the same plan from 45 yards out to provide New York's only points of the afternoon. Zuerlein's likely to be busier in Week 12, when the 6-4 Jets host the 3-8 Bears.

  • Kicks game-winner against Bills

    Zuerlein made both of his field-goal attempts and converted both PAT tries in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Zuerlein's 53-yard field goal in the first quarter found a way to knuckle in despite some windy conditions at MetLife Stadium. His 28-yard attempt with less than two minutes remaining in the fourth was less adventurous but just as significant, as that kick broke a 17-17 tie before a defensive stand on Buffalo's ensuing possession clinched the victory for the Jets.

  • Misses FG in Week 8 loss

    Zuerlein made one of two field-goal attempts and converted both PAT attempts in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: With the Jets reeling after having a pick-six erased by a penalty, Zuerlein had a chance to stem the bleeding with a game-tying 45-yard field goal, but he instead added to the Patriots' momentum by missing. That miss overshadowed Zuerlein's successful 28-yard field goal in the first quarter. He has missed three field goals and one PAT through eight games for New York.

  • Perfect at altitude

    Zuerlein connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and made his only PAT try in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: With a long of 45 yards, Zuerlein didn't need any help from the altitude in Denver, but he did well to navigate windy conditions better than the Broncos' Brandon McManus, who missed a field goal and a PAT. All told, Zuerlein has made all but two of his 15 field-goal attempts and 16 of 17 PAT attempts for the 5-2 Jets.

  • Hits two of three in rain

    Zuerlein made two of three field-goal attempts and all three of his PAT attempts in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Packers.

    Analysis: Zuerlein sandwiched a miss from 53 yards out between makes from 32 and 23 in rainy conditions at Lambeau Field. Considering the Packers had a field goal blocked and each team blocked or deflected a punt, Zuerlein's ability to reliably make chip shots proved crucial in the Jets' well-rounded win.

  • Makes six kicks in TD-fest

    Zuerlein made his only field-goal attempt from 34 yards out and all five of his PAT tries in Sunday's 40-17 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: The Jets only settled for one field goal as Miami struggled to stop the run in close, allowing five rushing touchdowns to New York. Since starting quarterback Zach Wilson returned from a preseason knee injury, New York has gone 2-0 while scoring 32.0 points per game. Zuerlein has made both his field-goal attempts and eight PATs over that span.

  • Accurate since shaky debut

    Zuerlein made his only field-goal attempt and all three of his PAT attempts in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Zuerlein has made all six of his field-goal attempts and all seven PAT tries over the past three games following a rocky Jets debut in which he missed one of each. New York continued to move the ball reasonably well in quarterback Zach Wilson's (knee) season debut, so fantasy managers who had been relying on Zuerlein with Joe Flacco leading New York's offense should feel comfortable continuing to do so with Wilson under center.

  • Busy and effective in Week 3

    Zuerlein made all four of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 27-12 loss to Cincinnati.

    Analysis: New York moved the ball well but couldn't get into the end zone, settling for field goals of 50, 40, 52 and 43 yards. If Zuerlein can continue to convert reliably from 50-plus yards, he should have some sneaky fantasy value on a Jets offense with enough playmakers to get into scoring range.

  • Nails 57-yarder in win

    Zuerlein made his only field-goal attempt from 57 yards and converted all four of his PAT tries in Sunday's 31-30 win over Cleveland.

    Analysis: A questionable holding penalty on the final play of the third quarter backed the Jets up to the edge of field-goal range, but Zuerlein hit the game-tying field goal from 57 yards in the first minute of the fourth. He also made every PAT, which proved crucial in a game the Jets won by one point thanks in part to a missed Browns PAT. After a shaky New York debut, Zuerlein earned himself some more job security with this outing.

  • Misses first kick as Jet

    Zuerlein made one of two field-goal attempts and missed his only PAT try in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: After the Ravens took a 3-0 lead in the first quarter, Zuerlein had a chance to tie the game early in the second from 45 yards out. He missed it, and the Jets never recovered. Zuerlein later connected from the same distance just before halftime but failed to convert a PAT in the fourth quarter to add to his inauspicious debut. While he probably won't be on the hot seat after just one week, Zuerlein's job security is quickly diminishing.

  • Nails 49-yarder

    Zuerlein made his only field-goal attempt from 49 yards and converted all four of his PAT attempts in Sunday's 31-27 preseason win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Zuerlein showed off the mix of accuracy and power that helped him beat out Eddy Pineiro in New York's training camp kicking competition. The veteran kicker could be busy in 2022 on a Jets offense with enough weapons to move the ball but a lack of established red-zone producers to finish off drives.

  • Wins kicking battle

    Zuerlein is the lone kicker on the Jets roster with the team releasing Eddy Pineiro on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein was the favorite heading into camp, and he ultimately won the job. He still has a strong leg, but the volume he saw in past seasons with the Rams and Cowboys may be a thing of the past. Zuerlein will be among the many Jets whose value depends on improvement from second-year quarterback Zach Wilson, who likely will miss the start of the season after having meniscus surgery in mid-August.

  • Edge in kicking battle

    Zuerlein remains the favorite to be the starting kicker for the Jets in 2022, Billy Riccette of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein continues to have the edge over Eddy Pineiro in the Jets' kicking battle as the preseason heads into its final week. The 34-year-old Zuerlein signed a deal with the team in March after he went 29-for-35 on field goals last season with the Cowboys.

  • Favorite to win kicking battle

    Zuerlein (toe) is considered to have an early leg up over Eddy Pineiro for the Jets' starting kicker job, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein missed Wednesday's practice with a sore toe, but he is not expected to miss much time due to this issue. The 34-year-old went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts during practice Monday, and his longevity should give him a distinct advantage in the job battle.

  • Nursing sore toe

    Zuerlein didn't kick at Wednesday's due to a sore toe, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein's injury doesn't appear to be a serious one, as head coach Robert Saleh expects the kicker to be back on the field by Saturday. The 34-year-old joined the Jets in March on a one-year deal after being cut by the Cowboys.

  • Inks deal with Jets

    Zuerlein signed a contract with the Jets on Saturday.

    Analysis: Zuerlein knocked home 29 of his 35 field-goal attempts for the Cowboys last season, but Dallas elected to release the veteran earlier this month. Zuerlein may not have a completely clear path to the kicking job after Eddy Pineiro connected on all 17 of his kicks over his five games for the Jets last year, but the former should have a decent shot.

  • Cut by Cowboys

    Zuerlein has been released by the Cowboys, Nick Eatman of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The Cowboys also announced Friday that tight end Blake Jarwin (hip) was waived/injured, with the moves freeing up cap space for the franchise leading up to free agency. Per Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News, Dallas now seems likely to replace Zuerlein -- who was approaching the final year of his contract -- with a more affordable option. In 16 games this past season, Zuerlein went 29-for-35 on field-goal attempts (82.9 percent) and 42-for-48 on extra-point tries (87.5 percent) en route…read more

  • Shanks PAT in win

    Zuerlein converted his only field-goal attempt and six of seven extra points in Saturday's win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: The veteran kicker saw more than enough volume to still have a productive week from a fantasy perspective, but he still missed a kick for the third time in the last four weeks. Zuerlein wraps up the regular season having gone 29-for-35 on FGs (82.9 percent) and 42-for-48 on PATs (87.5 percent), leaving him 12th in the league in total scoring with 129 points, but his inconsistency is a concern for the Cowboys heading into the playoffs.

  • Misses crucial FG in loss

    Zuerlein missed his only field-goal attempt and converted both his extra points in Sunday's 25-22 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: He hooked a 43-yard attempt wide to the left midway through the first quarter, a miss that wound up being the margin of victory for Arizona after Dak Prescott led a fourth-quarter rally for Dallas. Zuerlein has missed 11 kicks in total this year -- six field goals and five extra points -- and it wouldn't be surprising if the team moved on from the veteran in the offseason.

  • Makes eight PATs in win

    Zuerlein didn't get a field-goal attempt and connected on all eight of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 56-14 win over Washington.

    Analysis: With the Dallas offense finding itself again in Week 16, Zuerlein did not get an opportunity to attempt any field goals in the contest. The veteran kicker was perfect on his extra-point attempts, scoring eight of the team's 56 points in the blowout win. Zuerlein will look to improve upon his performance in what could be a high-scoring matchup with the Cardinals in Week 17.

  • Rough day Sunday

    Zuerlein connected on all three of his field-goal attempts but missed both his extra points in Sunday's win over the Giants.

    Analysis: The missed PATs didn't matter in a 21-6 victory, but it continued a pattern of erratic performances for Zuerlein that has left him with an 83.9 percent (26-for-31) success rate on extra points this season and an 84.8 percent mark (28-for-33) on field goals. While the veteran kicker has one more year left on his current contract, don't be surprised if Dallas looks for a replacement in the offseason.

  • Automatic again Sunday

    Zuerlein connected on all four of his field-goal attempts and his only extra point in Sunday's win over Washington.

    Analysis: The veteran kicker has been perfect the last two weeks after missing a FG and a PAT in a loss to the Raiders on Thanksgiving. Zuerlein has booted multiple field goals in four straight games and seven of his last eight, giving him a strong fantasy floor heading into a Week 15 tilt against the Giants.

  • Perfect in Thursday's win

    Zuerlein connected on both his field-goal tries and all three of his PATs in Thursday's 27-17 win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Both FGs came in the second quarter, from 55 and 34 yards out, to give the Cowboys a lead they didn't relinquish. Zuerlein has booted multiple field goals in three straight games and six of his last seven, giving him a solid floor heading into a Week 14 clash with Washington.

  • Misses two kicks

    Zuerlein missed one of three field-goal attempts and one of two extra-point tries in Week 12's 36-33 overtime loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: Zuerlein went wide left on his first PAT, then hit the left upright with a 59-yard field-goal attempt in the second quarter. Although he subsequently converted field goals from 29 and 45 yards in the second half, his extra-point miscue ultimately contributed toward the game going to overtime. The veteran will aim to eliminate any similar mistakes in Week 13 versus the Saints.

  • Accounts for only offense in loss

    Zuerlein connected on all three of his field goal attempts in Sunday's 19-9 loss to Kansas City.

    Analysis: The three successful FGs tied Zuerlein's season high as he made his return from the COVID-19 list, but he failed to see a PAT for the second straight contest as he missed the Week 10 big win over Atlanta. The veteran kicker could struggle to get consistent opportunities again in a Thanksgiving Day clash against the Raiders with Amari Cooper (COVID-19) already ruled out and CeeDee Lamb (concussion), Ezekiel Elliott (knee) and Tyron Smith (ankle) all iffy for the Dallas offense.

  • Activated off COVID-19 list

    The Cowboys activated Zuerlein from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

    Analysis: Zuerlein missed last week's win over the Falcons following a positive test for the virus, but the veteran kicker has since cleared all health and safety protocols and is back in the fold ahead of Sunday's game in Kansas City. Lirim Hajrullahu was summoned to serve as Dallas' placekicker in last week's win over the Falcons, but he's since reverted to the team's practice squad.

  • Expected back Thursday

    Zuerlein (illness) is expected to be activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Jori Epstein of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein wasn't able to clear COVID-19 health and safety protocols ahead of last week's win over the Falcons after head coach Mike McCarthy implied that the kicker tested positive for the virus, per Jori Epstein of USA Today. The 32-year-old's condition looks to have improved while he's been isolated from the team, so Zuerlein should be on track to play Sunday against the Chiefs if he indeed returns to the active roster Thursday.

    Zuerlein wasn't activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to Saturday's deadline for Week 10 roster moves and won't be available Sunday against the Falcons.

    Analysis: Zuerlein's absence for Week 10 was expected after head coach Mike McCarthy essentially confirmed Wednesday that the kicker's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list was the result of a positive test, per Jori Epstein of USA Today. Lirim Hajrullahu has been called up from the practice squad as Zuerlein's replacement, setting the rookie kicker up to make his first ever NFL appearance.

    The Cowboys placed Zuerlein on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Rob Phillips of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The report doesn't disclose whether Zuerlein's placement on the list is a result of a positive test of the virus or due to exposure to an infected person, but at least for the time being, the Cowboys will have to plan for the kicker not being available for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

  • Shut out in Sunday's loss

    Zuerlein failed to get a field goal or PAT opportunity in Sunday's loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Nothing better reflected the Cowboys' awful performance on offense than the fact their kicker got blanked -- by the time Dallas scored its first TD of the game inside the final five minutes of the fourth quarter, Denver had a 30-0 lead and the Cowboys went for two-pointers. Zuerlein had attempted multiple FGs and PATs in each of the prior three contests, so look for him to rebound in Week 10 against the Falcons.

  • Eight points in win

    Zuerlein connected on two of three field-goal attempts and both of his PATs in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

    Analysis: He misfired on a 43-yard FG attempt on the Cowboys' first possession of the night, but Zuerlein was perfect after that in a 20-16 victory. The veteran kicker has booted multiple field goals in three straight games and five of seven to begin the season, giving him a strong fantasy floor, and his ceiling is elite with Dak Prescott (calf) expected to rejoin the lineup for a Week 9 clash with the Broncos.

    Zuerlein connected on three of four field goals and both his PATs in Sunday's overtime win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: The veteran kicker hooked a 51-yard field-goal attempt wide left inside the final three minutes of the game that would have given the Cowboys a 23-21 lead, but Zuerlein's miss was quickly forgotten when Trevon Diggs took an INT to the house on the ensuing possession for the Pats, setting up a wild finish to an eventual 35-29 victory.

  • Huge day in rout

    Zuerlein connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and all five of his PATs in Sunday's win over the Giants.

    Analysis: His longest FG came from only 38 yards out, but the veteran kicker still had his most productive game of the year so far in a 44-20 victory. Zuerlein has booted multiple field goals in three of five games so far in 2021 and multiple extra points in all five, and he should continue seeing plenty of opportunities alongside the high-flying Cowboys offense heading into a Week 6 clash with the Patriots.

  • Doesn't miss in Sunday's win

    Zuerlein connected on his only field-goal attempt and all three of his extra points in Sunday's win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: He calmly drilled a 37-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter for the Cowboys' final points of the afternoon, but Zuerlein wasn't asked to do too much before that. Despite the fact Dallas is averaging 31.5 points a game, fourth in the league, most of that production has come in the end zone -- Zuerlein has only six FGs (on eight attempts) through four weeks compared to a 12-for-14 showing on PATs.

  • Misses PAT in rout

    Zuerlein didn't get a field-goal attempt and connected on five of six extra points in Monday's 41-21 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: The veteran kicker missed his PAT midway through the second quarter, but the Cowboys were already ahead 20-7 at that point. Zuerlein has missed four kicks in total through three games -- two extra points and two field goals -- but the volume provided him by the Dallas offense gives him a solid weekly floor heading into a Week 4 clash with the Panthers.

  • Drills game-winner Sunday

    Zuerlein connected on both his extra points and both his field-goal attempts Sunday, including a 56-yarder as time expired in the fourth quarter of a 20-17 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: The veteran kicker had a shaky Week 1 after missing the entire preseason while recuperating from back surgery, shanking two FGs and one PAT, but Greg the Leg appeared to be back in peak form Sunday. A healthy Zuerlein should be among the top fantasy options at his position this season given how potent the Dallas offense is expected to be most weeks.

  • Uneven performance in opener

    Zuerlein connected on three of five field-goal attempts and two of three extra-point attempts in Thursday's loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Zuerlein, who spent the majority of training camp on the PUP list with a back injury, started off the night by connecting on his first PAT of the season. However, things got shaky after that. He pulled his next attempt -- a 31-yard field goal -- far left and missed an extra point that would have tied the game at 14. After missing two kicks in a row, Zuerlein was summoned at the end of the half for a 60-yard attempt. While it faded short and to the left, the 33-year-old gave it a ride and it…read more

  • Activated from PUP

    Zeurlein (back) was activated from the PUP list Wednesday and should play in Sunday's preseason game against the Jaguars, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This is the second time Zuerlein has spent an offseason rehabbing from back surgery. He rebounded strong the first time in 2018, converting 87.1 percent of field-goal attempts and 97.2 percent of his point-after tries before missing the final five games of the season with a groin injury. The 33-year-old doesn't quite have the same leg strength at this point in his career, but he still should be a productive fantasy kicker as long as the Cowboys can keep quarterback Dak Prescott on the field.

  • Remains on track for Week 1

    Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday that Zuerlein (back) is still on track for Week 1, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: The Cowboys' decision to sign kicker Lirim Hajrullahu has to do with Zuerlein's main camp competition, Hunter Niswander ,"having an issue," according to McCarthy. Zuerlein, meanwhile, hasn't experienced any setbacks in his recovery from offseaosn back surgery and has recently started to ramp up his activity, including handling some kicking reps at practice. Dallas' roster moves all through the offseason have reflected confidence in Zuerlein's chances of suiting up in the Sept. 9 season opener…read more

  • Has successful pregame workout

    Zuerlein (back) said Friday he expects to be "100 percent on all cylinders" for Week 1 of the regular season at Tampa Bay, The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein increased his workload this week, with individual kicking drills away from the field translating to kicks at Wednesday's practice. He then had a "smooth" workout prior to Friday's preseason game in Arizona. Offseason back surgery delayed Zuerlein's introduction to training camp, but the lack of another full-time kicker on the roster implies the Cowboys' commitment to the 10th-year pro.

    Analysis: This marks Zuerlein's first on-field work of training camp as he continues to put offseason back surgery further in the rear-view mirror. Special teams coordinator John Fassel told Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday that Zuerlein will need "about three or four weeks" to return to normal, giving him a great shot to be available for the Cowboys' season opener Sept. 9 at Tampa Bay.

    Special teams coordinator John Fassel said Tuesday that Zuerlein (back) has begun kicking individually as he aims to "be 100 percent" for Week 1 at Tampa Bay, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Fassel is of the belief Zuerlein will require "about three or four weeks" to get back to normal, which conveniently lands between the end of the preseason and start of the regular season. The veteran is easing into kicking after undergoing offseason surgery on his back, which is the latest in a history of such injuries.

  • Rehabbing from back surgery

    Zuerlein has been placed on the PUP list due to offseason back surgery, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 33-year-old kicker has a history of back problems, including Dec. 2017 surgery to repair a herniated disk. Even so, the Cowboys head into training camp without another kicker on the roster, giving us a strong hint that they expect Zuerlein to be ready for Week 1. For now, backup punter Hunter Niswander can work with the FG and kickoff units in practice while Zuerlein finishes up his rehab process.

    Analysis: While there hasn't been any report of offseason surgery, Zuerlein does have a history of back injuries, including some appearances on the Cowboys' practice reports in the second half of last season. However, the 33-year-old has played 16 games in back-to-back seasons, and he could reclaim his past status as a top-five fantasy kicker if the Cowboys offense picks up where it left off before Dak Prescott (leg) suffered a season-ending injury last year.

    Zuerlein connected on 34 of 41 field-goal attempts and 33 of 36 extra points over 16 games for the Cowboys in 2020.

    Analysis: In his first season for a team other than the Rams, the veteran kicker rebounded from a rough 2019, setting a new career high with 41 FG attempts while converting them at better than 80 percent for the fourth time in the last five years. Zuerlein has two more seasons left on the contract he signed last offseason, and he's given Dallas little reason to go looking for a replacement.

    Zuerlein connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: The veteran kicker has delivered double-digit points in three straight games, something he'd done only three times in his first 11 games as a Cowboy. Zuerlein will try to stay locked in and help kick Dallas to a possible division title in Week 17 against the Giants.

    Zuerlein converted two of his three field-goal attempts and all five of his extra points in Sunday's 41-33 win over the 49ers.

    Analysis: His 60-yard attempt at the end of the first half drifted wide right, but otherwise Zuerlein took full advantage of his largest volume of the season, as the Cowboys scored 40 or more points for the first time since Dak Prescott (ankle) got hurt. The veteran kicker has seen at least three FG attempts in four straight games and six of the last seven, giving him significant upside in Week 16's clash with the Eagles.

    Zuerlein converted all three of his field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Three early Cincy fumbles gave the Cowboys plenty of extra possessions, and after a rough night in Baltimore last week, Zuerlein didn't waste any of his opportunities this time around. He's kicked at least three FGs in four of the last six games, and he could be busy again in Week 15's clash with the 49ers.

    Analysis: The nine points he left on the table didn't ultimately matter in a 34-17 defeat, but it was still a dreadful performance from the veteran kicker. Zuerlein missed from 40, 53 and 52 yards on three straight attempts, but it may have just been one of those nights in Baltimore, as even the normally ultra-reliable Justin Tucker missed a 36-yarder.

  • Perfect in Thanksgiving loss

    Zuerlein connected on all three of his field-goal attempts and his only PAT in Thursday's loss to Washington.

    Analysis: The Cowboys' offense stalled repeatedly in the red zone thanks in large part to Washington's pass rush, and Zuerlein's longest field goal of the afternoon went for only 33 yards. The team's Week 13 matchup could feature more of the same on the road against the Ravens, potentially making the veteran kicker a solid fantasy option even if Dallas struggles as a whole.

    Analysis: Zuerlein put together a trio of limited practices during the short week, and coach Mike McCarthy has said that he doesn't expect the kicker to miss the Thanksgiving Day game. The Cowboys also haven't made a move to sign another kicker to the practice squad for emergency depth, which seemingly reinforces the notion that Zuerlein will be good to go for Week 12.

Dallas will unveil its final injury report of the week Wednesday, at which point it will be known whether Zuerlein carries a designation into the contest.

    Analysis: Zuerlein tweaked his back during this past Sunday's win at Minnesota at the end of a kickoff. The injury caused the kicker to be listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report, putting him on track to uphold McCarthy's prediction. Zuerlein will have two more chances to prove his health before the Cowboys either clear him or give him a designation for Week 12.

    Analysis: At this time, there's no real concern about Zuerlein's availability for Thursday's game against Washington. The Cowboys don't have a backup kicker on the active roster or the practice squad, so punter Hunter Niswander likely would take over the starting duties if Zuerlein did sit out.

    Zuerlein connected on a 19-yard field goal and converted two of three extra-point attempts in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

    Analysis: His PAT on the first of four Dallas touchdowns on the day was blocked, which eventually cost Zuerlein two points as the Cowboys then went for a two-point conversion later in the game to make up for it. The veteran kicker has now missed three of 21 FG attempts and three of 20 extra points, and with the team's offense being just as erratic, Zuerlein remains a risky fantasy option heading into a Week 12 clash with Washington.

After connecting on just seven field goals through the first six games, the veteran kicker has added seven more over the past two weeks as the offense has begun to move the ball a little better following the season-ending ankle injury to Dak Prescott, without becoming more efficient in the red zone.

    Analysis: The Dallas offense could get absolutely nothing going behind an injury-ravaged offensive line, especially after rookie seventh-round pick Ben DiNucci was forced into action for Andy Dalton (concussion). The outlook for the entire unit is bleak heading into the Week 8 road clash with the Eagles, and Zuerlein -- who hasn't kicked multiple field goals since Week 3 -- seems likely to get limited opportunities once again.

    Analysis: With the Cowboys down 34-31, Zuerlein came through with FGs of 40 yards and 34 yards inside the final two minutes to secure the victory, the second time this season he's kicked a game-winning field goal as time expired. The Dallas offense as a whole will likely take a step backward with Andy Dalton replacing Dak Prescott (ankle) under center, but a less efficient aerial attack could mean more field-goal opportunities for Zuerlein.

    Zuerlein went 1-for-2 on field goals and 2-for-2 on extra points in Sunday's loss to the Rams.

    Analysis: The miss was from 53 yards out, but Zuerlein still failed to produce a revenge game against the team that let him walk away in the spring after eight mostly excellent seasons. The Cowboys' offense was expected to be explosive this year, although it fizzled with 17 points in Week 1, so there should be more productive days ahead for Zuerlein.

    The release of Kai Forbath on Saturday solidifies Zuerlein's status as the Cowboys' top placekicker, Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Though Forbath performed very capably during his stint with Dallas last season, the Cowboys elected to stick with Zuerlein, whose strong leg led to some productive fantasy seasons during his eight-year tenure with the Rams. The 32-year-old will now be working behind a strong Dallas offense, a context that could help him engineer a bounce-back campaign. Zuerlein made 24 of his 33 field-goal attempts with Los Angeles in 2019, resulting in a career-low 72.7 percent conversion rate.

Zuerlein, the presumptive favorite, still has plenty of leg strength, as evidenced by his five conversions from 50-plus yards for the Rams last season.

    Analysis: The veteran finished the campaign connecting on just four of eight field-goal attempts over the final five weeks of the season to drop to 72.7 conversion rate for the year. It was the second worst field-goal percentage of his career and lowest since hitting just 66.7 percent during the 2015 season. He's a good bet to bounce back in 2020, and the improvements the Los Angeles offense made down the stretch are encouraging for his fantasy outlook.

    Zuerlein connected on one of his two field-goal attempts and all four extra-point kicks during Saturday's 34-31 loss to San Francisco.

    Analysis: While it was early in the third quarter when Zuerlein missed a 52-yard, field-goal attempt, it was still costly. The veteran has missed half of his field-goal kicks over the past four weeks and owns an underwhelming 74.2 conversion percentage for the campaign. It's a disappointing mark after Zuerlein hit 90.3 percent over the previous three seasons, but it is worth noting he missed practices this week because of a quadriceps injury.

    Zuerlein (quadriceps) is active for Saturday's game at San Francisco, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein didn't practice this week due to a strained right quad, but his availability nonetheless was contingent on his ability to kick Friday. When the Rams didn't sign another kicker before this game, it was a sign that he got through the session without issue. He'll look to fare better than he did against the 49ers in Week 6, when he didn't attempt a field goal and made his sole point-after try.

    Analysis: The Rams opted not to sign another kicker ahead of Saturday's contest, which seems to indicate Zuerlein's availability. While fantasy owners may want to have a plan in place in the unlikely event the 31-year-old can't play, it's clear the Rams trust their kicker's health in a do-or-die playoff situation against the 49ers.

    Analysis: Zuerlein hasn't logged a practice rep this week due to a quad strain. Friday's test should reveal whether or not he'll be available Saturday evening, but coach Sean McVay hinted the Rams have a contingency in place in the event Zuerlein is sidelined.

    Zuerlein (quadriceps) didn't take part in practice Wednesday, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Zuerlein has been sidelined this week while rehabbing a strained quadriceps. The development has spurred the Rams to explore other options, as coach Sean McVay told Thiry on Monday. To date, though, the team hasn't added another kicker to the 53-man roster or practice squad, so Zuerlein remains the top in-house option to handle such duties Saturday in San Francisco.

    Analysis: Zuerlein was barely used in Sunday's 44-21 loss to Dallas, making his only extra-point attempt. It's unclear how he sustained the injury, but the fact that he could miss time suggests it's cause for concern. McVay said the team will explore its options at kicker this week just in case, but it's still too early for Zuerlein to be in serious jeopardy of missing Week 16.

    Analysis: The Cowboys got ahead in the second quarter and took Zuerlein out of the game before halftime. It was a disappointing fantasy showing for the veteran, and obviously, at the wrong time of the season.

  • Hits four more extra points

    Zuerlein connected on all four of his extra-point kicks during Sunday's 28-12 win over Seattle. His lone field-goal attempt from 39 yards was blocked.

    Analysis: The veteran is a perfect 33-for-33 on extra-point kicks this season, but he's only converted 75.9 percent of his field-goal attempts. It's a notable drop from his 90.3 percent success rate over the previous three seasons. The Los Angeles offense appears to have found its footing of late and scored 62 points over the past two weeks, so Zuerlein should continue to receive chances and remains a serviceable fantasy asset in the majority of settings -- even with his dip in efficiency.

It was a much-needed performance for the Los Angeles offense after a few down weeks, and a matchup with Seattle awaits in Week 14. The 31-year-old has already missed six field goals this season -- his most misses since 2015 -- with most of his struggles coming in the 40-yard range (4-for-9).

The 31-year-old has yet to miss an extra point, though, and he's drilled everything under 40 yards over the last two seasons. Zuerlein and the Rams will take on a strong Baltimore defense in Week 12.

  • Another mediocre week

    Zuerlein connected on one of his two field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point kick during Sunday's 17-12 loss to Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Zuerlein's miss came from 56 yards, so it was hardly a chip shot, and the miss isn't as concerning as his dwindling opportunities. The Los Angeles offense is struggling against formidable defenses, and it's hurt the kicker's numbers in three of the past four games. His fantasy value is beginning to decline.
