Brandon McManus Inactive for Week 6 Against Bengals

Sunday, October 12, 3:13 PM

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (right quadricep) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice. McManus tested his injury pregame, but it was ultimately determined that he won't be able to kick on Sunday afternoon. Fourth-year journeyman kicker Lucas Havrisik is active and will be responsible for all field goals and extra points against the Bengals. He hasn't kicked in a regular-season game since 2023 with the Rams, when he went 15-for-20 on field goals and 19-for-22 on extra points.

Matt Gay A Strong Start at Kicker in Week 2

Wednesday, September 10, 5:43 PM

Washington Commanders kicker Matt Gay did not attempt a field goal in their 21-6 Week 1 against the Giants, but converted all three extra points. Gay likely would have had a field goal opportunity at the end of the first half, but Washington was called for an intentional grounding penalty with a handful of seconds left and no timeouts left, leaving the clock to run out. The offense had other sloppy moments that ended potential scoring drives early, but still moved the ball at will. In a projected shootout on Thursday night in Green Bay, Gay should be fired up as one of the top kicker options in Week 2.
