Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn went 2-for-3 on field goals last week and made both his extra point attempts. He is 4-for-4 on extra point attempts this season and 8-for-10 on field goals, with both his misses coming from 50+ yards. He and the Texans knocked off the Titans 26-0 for their first win of the season last week and will look to make it two in a row as they visit the Ravens on Sunday. Fairbairn is the No. 11 kicker in RotoBaller's rankings for Week 5, and he can be a strong play against Baltimore on the road, even though he isn't in a controlled environment or backed up by an extremely productive offense right now.

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates has made six of his eight field goal attempts so far this season and has not yet missed an extra-point try. Playing for a Lions team that has averaged 34.8 points per game, Bates currently leads the NFL in extra-point attempts for the second straight season. The 26-year-old will face the Kansas City Chiefs on the road in Week 6. Kansas City is allowing an average of 21.4 points per contest, so this could be a more difficult game for Detroit to put up points. Still, Bates profiles as a low-end starting kicker option in Week 6.
