Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Costly miss in narrow loss
Rotowire
Sanders missed his only field-goal attempt and converted all three of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 23-21 loss to New England.
Sanders failed to convert a 51-yard attempt in a divisional loss that saw Miami fall by just two points, now putting him at just 1-for-5 on 50-plus yard field-goal tries this season. He will attempt to record more production versus the Jets in Week 18.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Misses one field goal in loss
Rotowire
Sanders converted two of three field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries during Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Packers.
Sanders missed his first field goal since Week 9 in Sunday's disappointing loss, just one game after he went 3-for-3 on field goals in a narrow game against the Bills. On deck for Week 17 is a must-win divisional contest against the Patriots, and after Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) threw three interceptions against Green Bay, coach Mike McDaniel could trend towards more conservative playcalling.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Perfect in narrow loss to Bills
Rotowire
Sanders converted all three of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries during Sunday's 32-29 loss to Buffalo.
Sanders pulled through in adverse elements for the Dolphins, though his accuracy wasn't enough to secure a much-needed divisional win over the Bills. He will have a chance to keep up his momentum on Christmas Day versus the Packers in Week 16.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Kicker to Sit
Rotowire
Sanders only has two games this season with double digits in Fantasy points and none on the road. He had three made PATs in Week 3 against Buffalo, but he did not attempt a field goal. And in four career games at Buffalo he has combined for just 4-of-5 field goals and 7-of-7 PATs. Buffalo has also gone four games in a row without allowing multiple field goals against Cleveland, Detroit, New England and the Jets.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Good on only FGA
Rotowire
Sanders converted his lone field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries during Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Chargers.
Sanders has back-to-back games with just one field-goal attempt, a pattern that coincides with Tua Tagovailoa's recent struggles on offense. The Dolphins have a tough matchup against the Bills on deck Week 15, so if the offense isn't able to get back on track, fantasy managers may want to look for a starting option other than Sanders.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Converts lone FGA
Rotowire
Sanders converted his only field-goal try and both extra-point attempts during Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.
Sanders didn't see many scoring opportunities in a contest that saw Miami's offense struggle for much of the game. It was a somewhat predictable outcome, with the Dolphins down both starting tackles against one of the league's most ferocious defensive fronts. Sanders will hope for a more favorable script Week 14 versus the Chargers.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Kicker to Sit
Rotowire
Sanders was great in Week 12 against Houston with three field goals and three PATs for 12 Fantasy points, but that was just his second game this season with double digits in Fantasy points. He should struggle this week against the 49ers, who allow the fewest Fantasy points to opposing kickers. Six kickers this season against San Francisco have failed to make even one field goal, including Wil Lutz last week. I would avoid Sanders in Week 13 with this matchup on the road.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Perfect in blowout win
Rotowire
Sanders converted all three field-goal tries and all three extra-point attempts during Sunday's 30-15 win over the Texans.
Sanders predictably saw plentiful opportunities Sunday, in a matchup that saw Houston's defense look overmatched by Miami's offense straight out of the gate. The kicker likely could have put up more points if the Dolphins didn't opt to take the foot off the gas pedal after taking a 30-0 lead, ultimately pulling quarterback Tua Tagovailoa early. Sanders doesn't project for as easy a matchup Week 13 against the 49ers' stout defense.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Whiffs on two extra points
Rotowire
Sanders converted both of his field-goal tries and three of five extra-point attempts during Sunday's 37-19 win over the Browns.
Sanders has missed just three extra-point tries this season, though Miami wasn't hindered by the failed kicks during Sunday's blowout win. After the team returns from a bye week, Sanders will get a chance to capitalize against a poor Texans defense Week 12 in what could be a high-scoring affair for the Dolphins.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Flawless in narrow win
Rotowire
Sanders converted his only field-goal attempt and all four extra-point tries during Sunday's 31-27 win over the Lions.
Sanders did all that was asked of him in Sunday's narrow win, a game that saw the Dolphins trailing by a two-score deficit and went into catch-up mode early. Miami's offense will take on a Bears defense Week 9 which just allowed 49 points to the Cowboys, so Sanders could be see ample scoring opportunities.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Another long miss
Rotowire
Sanders converted one of two field-goal tries and his sole extra-point attempt during Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Vikings.
Sanders has now missed from 50-plus yards out in three straight weeks, all of which have been contests that saw Miami's offense struggle due to in-game quarterback injuries. The team should have Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) back under center versus the Steelers in Week 7, so there's optimism that the offense gets right, giving Sanders more stable opportunities.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Misses long field goal
Rotowire
Sanders converted one of two field-goal tries and both extra-point attempts during Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Jets.
Sanders can't be trusted to receive significant opportunities with a third-string quarterback under center, and it could fall to Skylar Thompson to make another start Week 6 if neither Tua Tagovailoa or Teddy Bridgewater can clear the concussion protocol. Sanders has now missed from 50-plus yards out in back-to-back weeks.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Good on three of four kicks
Rotowire
Sanders converted three of four field-goal attempts and missed his only extra-point try during Thursday's 27-15 loss to the Bengals.
Sanders' only missed field-goal try came from 50-plus yards out and with significant wind, but it was good to see him receive increased opportunities. In Miami's previous two games, Sanders had been limited to just extra-point conversions. The Dolphins are looking ahead to a divisional matchup against the Jets in Week 5.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: No field-goal tries again
Rotowire
Sanders did not attempt a field goal during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Bills. He converted all three of his extra-point tries.
Sanders has now gone back-to-back weeks without a field-goal attempt. While that certainly won't be the norm for Sanders this season, it does leave the kicker as a low-floor fantasy option for Thursday's game against the Bengals. In Week 1 versus the Patriots, Sanders converted his pair of field-goal attempts.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Makes all six extra points
Rotowire
Sanders converted all six of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 42-38 win over the Ravens.
The Dolphins began Week 2 immediately facing a deficit due to a kick-return touchdown by Devin Duvernay (concussion), and the game script only got worse from there. As such, the team never had a real chance to settle for field goals, but Sanders did avoid making any mistakes handling point-after tries. He hasn't yet missed a kick and will look to remain perfect versus Buffalo in Week 3.

Rotowire
Sanders converted both of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries during Sunday's 20-9 win over New England.
Sanders is 100 percent through one game of the regular season, a notable outcome after his efficiency concerns in 2022. The fifth-year pro will look to keep the ship steady with a Week 2 matchup against Baltimore's stout defense.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Accuracy drops notably in 2021
Rotowire
Sanders converted 23 of 31 field-goal attempts and 34 of 35 extra-point tries across 17 appearances in 2021.
Sanders' spectacular 92 percent field-goal conversion rate from 2020 fell to just 74 percent in 2021, though he remained exceptional in terms of extra points. The Dolphins will bring in competition for Sanders this offseason, at the very least, though there isn't a potential out written into his contract until 2023.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Only scorer in convincing loss
Rotowire
Sanders converted one of two field-goal attempts during Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Titans.
Sanders has now missed a kick in back-to-back games, though Sunday's failed conversion came from over 50 yards out. The placekicker accounted for all of Miami's points in Week 17's blowout loss, but the script of the game resulted in very few scoring opportunities. Sanders faces another tough matchup to close out the regular season, with the Dolphins hosting the Patriots in Week 18.

Dolphins' Jason Sanders: Misses kick Monday
Rotowire
Sanders missed one of his three field-goal attempts but made both of his extra-point tries in Monday night's 20-3 win over the Saints.
Sanders converted from 48 yards before sending a 59-yarder wide right to end the first half. The veteran then responded by making a 34-yarder to begin the fourth quarter, giving him a fourth straight game with at least seven points.
