Eagles' Jake Elliott: Three field goals in big win
Rotowire
Elliott made all three of his field-goal tries and all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 37-17 win over the Bengals.
Elliott was good from 39 yards in the second quarter and from both 49 and 47 yards in the fourth. This was the busiest he's been all season. The most field goals he's made in a game this year prior to Week 8 was two, while the last time he'd attempted more than five total kicks in a game was back in Week 1.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: No field goals required in blowout
Rotowire
Elliott made all four extra-point tries but didn't attempt any field goals in Sunday's 28-3 win over the Giants.
The Eagles ran all over the Giants, but that success didn't translate to much fantasy value for their kicker. Elliott has only attempted a total of eight field goals through six games this season, making six. Both marks rank 31st among all kickers.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Blocked from 57 yards
Rotowire
Elliott made two field goals from 40-plus yards as well as both of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns but also had a 57-yard kick blocked and returned for a touchdown.
The kick was blocked by Myles Garrett and returned by former Eagle Rodney McLeod, marking the only time the Browns would reach the end zone all game. Elliott has now failed both of his attempts from beyond 50 yards this season and has only made six field goals in five games on the season.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Slow day in loss
Rotowire
Elliott made both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 33-16 loss to the Buccaneers.
Elliott didn't attempt a field goal in the loss but he was able to move to 8-for-8 on the season for PATs. While he'll remain stagnant at 4-for-5 on FGAs in the 2024 campaign thus far. Elliott and the Eagles are now in a bye week but will return to action in Week 6 against the Browns.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Misses lone field goal
Rotowire
Elliott made his only extra-point attempt, but he missed a field-goal try in the Eagles' 15-12 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Elliott's miss came from 60 yards out and was wide right. At the time the Eagles were trailing 7-6 in the fourth quarter. It was the Memphis product's first miss of the season, and he's now 4-for-5 on FGAs for the season. Next up for Elliott and Philadelphia is a Week 4 matchup with the Buccaneers.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Stays perfect to start season
Rotowire
Elliott made both of his point-after and field-goal attempts in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons.
Elliott made 29- and 28-yard field goals in the loss Monday. His final make gave the Eagles a six-point lead with less than two minutes to go, forcing Atlanta to march down the field and score a touchdown, which unfortunately for Philadelphia, is exactly what happened. Elliot is now 4-for-4 on FGAs this season and 5-for-5 on PATs. Next up in Week 3 is a matchup with New Orleans.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Stays busy in win
Rotowire
Elliott made four extra-point attempts and two field goals in Friday's 34-29 win over the Packers.
Elliott has been one of the best kickers in football for the last three seasons and so far has carried that success into 2024. The Memphis product was perfect on the day, making 21 and 38-yard field goals, aiding Philadelphia in its Week 1 win. Elliott and the Eagles will host the Falcons next Monday in Week 2.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Secures four-year extension
Rotowire
Elliott and the Eagles agreed Wednesday on a four-year, $24 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Elliott's annual average salary of $6 million ties him with Justin Tucker as the highest-paid kicker in NFL history, per Schefter. The 29-year-old turned in a career-best season in 2023, converting 30 of 32 field-goal attempts while missing just of 46 extra-point attempts. His 32 field-goal attempts ranked just 16th in the league, however, due in no small part to the Eagles' 59.7 percent touchdown rate in the red zone (ninth in the NFL).

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Quiet day in regular-season finale
Rotowire
Elliott made one field goal and one extra point in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Giants.
Elliott wasn't given much to do in a flat performance by the Eagles, which ended the year with five losses in their final six games. Elliott didn't attempt more than two field goals in any of those losses, meaning he finished the year a modest 16th in field-goal attempts with 32. A total of 17 of those attempts came in the first five weeks, with just 15 coming in the team's final 12 games.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Just one field goal in shootout
Rotowire
Elliott made one field goal and four extra points in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Cardinals.
The Eagles put up plenty of points Sunday, unlike they had in their previous three December defeats, but Elliott wasn't asked to attempt anything other than an extra point until his go-ahead 43-yarder with 2:33 remaining in the fourth quarter. The Philadelphia defense failed to hold onto the lead, however, consigning the team to its fourth defeat in five games.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Has busy Christmas Day
Rotowire
Elliott made all seven of his kicks (four field goals and three extra points) in Monday's 33-25 win over the Giants.
Both Elliott's four field-goal attempts and his seven total kicks matched his season highs. He was far busier than he'd been in recent weeks, as he hadn't attempted more than two field goals in a game since Week 5.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Quiet day in loss
Rotowire
Elliott made his lone field goal attempt and both of his extra points in Monday's 20-17 loss to the Seahawks.
The Eagles' offense has been stuck in a rut in recent weeks, scoring less than 20 points in three straight games, all of which have resulted in losses. Elliott made a pair of field goals in the first two games of the losing streak, but his only attempt in Monday's contest was an easy 27-yarder.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Makes two field goals
Rotowire
Elliott went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and converted his only extra point in Sunday's 33-13 loss to the Cowboys.
Few Eagles could be proud of their performance on Sunday, but Elliott did at least make a 52-yard kick in the first quarter, meaning he's now 7-for-8 from beyond 50 yards this season. Only two kickers (Brandon Aubrey and Dustin Hopkins) have made more from that distance this season.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Zero field-goal attempts in win
Rotowire
Elliott didn't attempt a single field goal in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Cowboys but did convert all four of his extra points.
The Eagles offense has been better at getting into the end zone in recent weeks, to the detriment of Elliott's fantasy value. Over the first five games, he averaged 3.4 field goal attempts and 2.4 extra points. Over the last five contests, he's averaged just 0.8 field-goal attempts but 3.8 extra points. The Eagles will hope that trend continues after their Week 10 bye.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Mostly on extra-point duty
Rotowire
Elliott converted his lone field-goal attempt and all five of his extra points in Sunday's 38-31 win over Washington.
Elliott was accurate from 51 yards in the first quarter and then wasn't asked to do anything difficult the rest of the way. It's the third straight week in which he's attempted just a single field goal, which follows a streak in which he attempted at least three kicks in five consecutive games to begin the year.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Misses from 37 yards
Rotowire
Elliott made both of his extra-point attempts but missed his only field-goal try in Sunday's 20-14 loss to the Jets.
Elliott had been a big fantasy producer in the first five weeks of the season, averaging over three made field goals per game. He produced a dud in Week 6, however, missing from 37 yards in his lone attempt. The Eagles offense as a whole struggled as they lost for the first time this season, with four turnovers cutting drives short before Elliott got the chance to work.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Three more field goals in Week 5
Rotowire
Elliott went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on extra points in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Rams.
Elliott didn't have a particularly difficult day, converting one 34-yard attempt and a pair of 26-yarders. The fact that he was yet again asked to attempt at least three field goals is significant, however. He's done so in all five games this season after attempting more than two field goals just once in the entirety of last season. That's a byproduct of the Eagles falling from No. 3 to No. 27 in red-zone touchdown percentage this season, and if that inefficiency persists, it will be to the benefit of Elliott's fantasy managers.
Elliott kicked a 54-yard game winner in overtime against Washington on Sunday, one of six kicks (four field goals and two extra points) he made on the day.
The Eagles could only get nine of the 17 yards they needed on a third down just inside midfield, but they trusted Elliott to convert from beyond 50 yards, something he'd done on three of four attempts over the first three games. The kick improved Philadelphia to 4-0 on the year and marked the second time Elliott has made four field goals this season.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Clean performance in Week 3
Rotowire
Elliott didn't miss a kick in Monday's win over the Buccaneers, converting two extra points and three field goals.
Elliott will be happy with his first perfect performance of the season after missing one kick in each of the Eagles' first two games, though to be fair, he wasn't asked to do anything difficult this time around. After attempting two kicks from beyond 50 yards in both of the first two weeks, he was merely asked to convert from 36, 38 and 26 yards. Perhaps most notable is the fact that Elliott has already been given 10 field-goal attempts through three weeks. Last year, he didn't attempt his 10th field goal until Week 12, with the Eagles finishing drives at an uncommon rate, but they've been coming up short more frequently this season.

Eagles' Jake Elliott: Kicker to Sit
Rotowire
Elliott only had seven games last season where he attempted multiple field goals, and he only scored more than eight Fantasy points five times. This could be a week where he has a big game if the Patriots defense keeps the Eagles out of the end zone, but New England is typically stingy with allowing opposing Fantasy points to kickers. In three of the past four seasons, the Patriots have been top five in fewest Fantasy points allowed to kickers. I would look for another kicker in Week 1 -- and maybe for the entire year.
