Zane Gonzalez News
Tuesday, March 10, 9:41 AM
Veteran free-agent kicker Zane Gonzalez agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday, agent Mike McCartney told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Gonzalez will be joining his sixth team as he heads into his eighth NFL season. The 30-year-old former seventh-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2017 out of Arizona State kicked in nine games for the Atlanta Falcons last year and was solid, making 19 of his 22 field-goal attempts (7-for-9 from 50-plus yards) while missing just one of his 18 extra-point tries. The Dolphins already released long-time kicker Jason Sanders, and Riley Patterson, who filled in nicely in 2025, could leave in free agency, so Gonzalez gives Miami's new coaching staff an experienced fallback option at placekicker. In an offense that will be led by new quarterback Malik Willis, Gonzalez will be a low-end kicking option, at best, in fantasy football leagues if he's the starter this fall.

Ka'imi Fairbairn News
Tuesday, March 10, 9:36 AM
The Houston Texans are signing kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn to a two-year, $13 million deal on Tuesday, a league source told Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Fairbairn still had a year left on the three-year, $15.9 million contract he signed with the Texans in March of 2024, but the Texans will extend one of the best kickers in the NFL for another couple of seasons. The 32-year-old veteran led the NFL in both field-goal makes (44) and attempts (48) in 15 regular-season games in 2025, also making all 28 of his extra-point opportunities. He went 9-for-13 on kicks from 50-plus yards out. Fairbairn was second behind only the Seahawks' Jason Myers in overall fantasy points among kickers last year. He has an 87.6% success rate in his career on 291 field-goal attempts over his nine years in the league. Locked in with Houston for another couple of years, Fairbairn will be a high-floor fantasy kicker in 2026.
