This should be a good week for McPherson, who just had six PATs and a field goal in Week 16 at Miami and has made seven field goals and 12 PATs in the past four games with Joe Burrow back in action. Arizona is No. 2 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing kickers, and six of the past seven kickers against the Cardinals have made multiple field goals and multiple PATs in the same game. McPherson has top-five upside in all leagues in Week 17.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: Does his job on extra points
Rotowire
McPherson made all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 39-34 loss to the Bills.
The kicker did not attempt a field goal in the loss. McPherson has connected on a combined six field goals and six extra points in the two weeks since Joe Burrow returned to the Bengals' lineup as the team's starting quarterback, and he should continue to get opportunities as long as Burrow is leading the offense.

Rotowire
McPherson had a big game in Week 7 against Pittsburgh with four made field goals and three PATs, including a game-winning 36-yard kick with 10 seconds left. The Bengals offense looked great against the Steelers in the second start for Joe Flacco, and Cincinnati should do well against the Jets in Week 8.

Rotowire
McPherson made his only field-goal try in Monday's 28-3 loss to the Broncos.
McPherson finished off the Bengals' first drive of the night with a chip-shot 26-yard field goal, which would prove to be all the offense for Cincinnati in Week 4.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: Makes his kicks in win
Rotowire
McPherson made his lone field-goal attempt and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns.
The kickers were the difference in this contest, as McPherson made all three of his kicks, while Browns kicker Andre Szmyt made just one of his two field goals and also missed an extra point. McPherson's 35-yard field goal in the third quarter to put the Bengals up 17-16 proved to be the difference. In Cincinnati's high-powered offense, McPherson should be busy this season.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: In line to miss time
Rotowire
McPherson is expected to miss a few weeks due to a groin injury, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
While Garafolo indicates that McPherson's injury is not season-ending, the kicker is on track to miss some time. With that in mind, the Bengals will sign Cade York to their practice squad and are expected to elevate him ahead of Monday's game against the Cowboys.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: Kicker to Sit
Rotowire
McPherson has two games with more than five Fantasy points in his past seven outings, and this is a bad matchup. The Steelers are No. 3 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing kickers, and Greg Joseph in Week 8 is the lone kicker with more than nine Fantasy points against Pittsburgh this season. McPherson was also just 2-of-2 on field goals and 1-of-1 on PATs against the Steelers in two games last season.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: Kicker to Sit
Rotowire
McPherson only has four games this season with more than six Fantasy points and just one since Week 4. He didn't attempt a field goal in Week 10 at Baltimore and now has five games this season with one field or less. The Chargers are No. 2 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing kickers, and McPherson is not worth trusting in most leagues in Week 11.
McPherson made one of two field-goal attempts and converted on both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Eagles.
McPherson made a 27-yard chip shot early in the second quarter, but his 54-yard field-goal attempt later in the frame missed wide left. It was his fourth miss on a field-goal attempt this season, and three of the other misses have come over the Bengals' last four regular-season games. McPherson will look to get back on track against the Raiders on Sunday, Nov. 3.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: Misses lone try at Cleveland
Rotowire
McPherson missed his only field-goal try and converted all three of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 21-14 win at Cleveland.
A 50-yard try late in the fourth quarter would have extended the Bengals' lead to three scores, but McPherson pushed it wide right. His accuracy to start this season hasn't been totally up to par with the standard he's set for himself over the course of his career, but he should have a chance to make positive corrections as the year progresses if Cincinnati's offense continues to have success moving the ball.

Rotowire
McPherson made his only field-goal attempt and converted both of his two extra-point tries during Sunday's 17-7 win at the Giants.
Not much offense was generated by either team at MetLife in Week 6, but McPherson did what little was asked of him to help get the Bengals to their second win of the season. He'll hope to see more chances in Week 7 at Cleveland.

Bengals' Evan McPherson: Kicker to Start

McPherson had a big game in Week 2 at Kansas City with four field goals on four attempts, including one from 53 yards.

McPherson connected from 22, 33 and 48 yards out before hitting a 53-yard field goal to give the Bengals a 25-23 lead in the fourth quarter.
