Comes through with walk-off FG
Gonzalez made his only field-goal attempt and both of his extra-point tries Thursday in a 29-28 Week 15 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Gonzalez didn't attempt a field goal in the first half but made both of his extra-point tries. The Falcons attempted a two-point conversion on each of their second-half touchdowns, so Gonzalez went almost the entire third and fourth quarters without taking the field. However, Atlanta drove down the field in the final two minutes of game time and called upon Gonzalez for a 43-yard field-goal try with four seconds left on the clock. The veteran kicker converted to give the Falcons the win. Since…read more

Has kick blocked
Gonzalez went 3-of-4 on field-goal attempts in Sunday's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: The kicker hit from 35, 43 and 27 yards Sunday, but he had a 50-yard attempt blocked in the second quarter. It was only Gonzalez's second miss in five games since he signed with the Falcons in early November, and both have been field goals, as he's been perfect on extra points.

Misses FGA in Week 13 loss
Gonzalez converted one of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in the Falcons' 27-24 loss to the Jets on Sunday.
Analysis: Gonzalez missed a 50-yard field-goal attempt wide right in the third quarter but hit one from 52 yards on the next drive. Through four games with the Falcons, Gonzalez has made seven of eight field goals and all nine of his PATs. In an offense now quarterbacked by Kirk Cousins with Drake London (knee) injured, Gonzalez isn't an exciting fantasy kicker.

Perfect on four kicks vs. NOLA
Gonzalez went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made his lone extra-point try during the Falcons' 24-10 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Gonzalez opened Sunday's scoring with a 56-yard field goal early in the first quarter and added two more field goals from 41 and 54 yards in the second frame. The veteran kicker has been perfect since joining Atlanta in early November, having made all six of his field-goal attempts (three of which have come from 50-plus yards) and each of his six point-after tries across three regular-season games.

Perfect on five kicks in loss
Gonzalez converted both of his field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in the Falcons' 30-27 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Atlanta jumped out to an early 21-7 lead but blew it late, as the offense settled for just two second-half field goals from Gonzalez, including one from 45 yards out late in the fourth quarter to force overtime. Gonzalez has now kicked in two games with Atlanta, converting all three field goals and five of five extra points. Gonzalez will be in a plus kicking spot against New Orleans next Sunday.

Perfect in loss
Gonzalez made his only field-goal attempt and completed a pair of extra-point tries during the Falcons' 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts in Berlin on Sunday.
Analysis: Gonzalez completed a 47-yard field goal to extend the Falcons' lead in the third quarter. The new kicker is perfect on field goals and extra points through his first game as a Falcon.

New kicker in Atlanta
Gonzalez agreed to a one-year contract with the Falcons on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Atlanta will make room for Gonzalez on its roster by waiving incumbent kicker Parker Romo, whose missed extra-point attempt in this past Sunday's game against the Patriots proved to be the difference in a 24-23 loss. Gonzalez, who had been a free agent since being cut by Washington in April, brings ample NFL experience to the table, though he's rarely performed well enough to earn a long-term stay at any of his four stops since entering the league in 2017. The 30-year-old has converted field…read more

Let go by Washington
The Commanders are releasing Gonzalez on Tuesday after having signed Matt Gay, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez performed admirably for Washington after Austin Seibert (groin) was lost to injury in Week 12 last year, suiting up for six regular-season games and three postseason contests. In that span he converted 12 of his 15 field-goal attempts and all 27 of his extra-point tries. Gonzalez, who will turn 30 in early May, likely won't need long to catch on with a new team.

Running it back in D.C.
Washington re-signed Gonzalez on Thursday.
Analysis: As Austin Seibert went to the Commanders' injured reserve list with a hip injury ahead of Week 13, Gonzalez was signed to fill in. Over nine games, including the postseason, he made 12 of his 15 field-goal tries and all 27 of his extra-point attempts. That seems to have been good enough to earn him priority for the starting job for 2025.

Fills in capably for Seibert
Gonzalez made six regular-season appearances and three playoff appearances for the Commanders in 2024, en route to converting 12 of 15 field-goal attempts and all 27 PATs.
Analysis: The Commander signed Gonzalez in November as a replacement for Austin Seibert, who missed the final two months of the regular season and all of the postseason with a hip injury. Gonzalez filled in capably, making his first regular-season appearances since 2021 and missing only three kicks in nine games. He's scheduled for unrestricted free agency this offseason and will turn 30 in May.

Takes every rep Wednesday
Gonzalez (hip) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Gonzalez was listed as a limited participant Tuesday on Washington's first injury report of the week, but his ability to take every rep a day later clears up any concern about his status for Saturday's divisional-round game in Detroit. After connecting on five of seven field-goal attempts and 19 of 19 extra-point tries over his six appearances with Washington in the regular season, Gonzalez went a perfect 5-for-5 on kicks in this past Sunday's wild-card win over the Buccaneers. He nailed two…read more

Limited Tuesday with hip issue
Gonzalez was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice due to a hip injury.
Analysis: Gonzalez connected on both of his extra-point attempts and all three of his field-goal tries -- including the game winner from 37 yards as time expired -- in the Commanders' 23-20 wild-card win over the Buccaneers, but he seems to have picked up a hip issue along the way. There's no indication yet he's in danger of missing Saturday's divisional-round matchup with the Lions, however. Washington doesn't currently have any other kickers on its active roster or practice squad.

Ends regular season 5-for-7 on FGs
Gonzalez made his lone field-goal attempt and both his extra-point tries in a 23-19 win over Dallas in Week 18.
Analysis: Gonzalez came through when called upon Sunday, knocking home a 47-yard field goal in the second period and converting both of his extra-point tries. The 28-year-old served as the Commanders' kicker for seven of the team's final nine games, going 5-for-7 on field-goal tries while making all 19 of his point-after attempts.

Perfect against Atlanta
Gonzalez made his lone field-goal attempt and converted all three of his extra-point tries during the Commanders' 30-24 overtime win over the Falcons on Sunday night.
Analysis: Three of Gonzalez's four kicking attempts came in the second half of Sunday's game, including a 31-yard field goal midway through the fourth quarter that extended Washington's lead to seven points. Gonzalez is now 4-for-6 on field-goal attempts and 17-for-17 on extra-point tries in his five games with the Commanders. Whether Gonzalez will kick for the Commanders in the regular-season finale against the Cowboys will depend on whether Austin Seibert (groin) is activated off injured reserve.

Nails all four extra-point attempts
Gonzalez converted all four of his extra-point tries during the Commanders' 36-33 win over the Eagles on Sunday.
Analysis: Gonzalez was sidelined for the Commander's Week 15 win over the Saints due to a left foot injury. He didn't practice Wednesday while attending the birth of his child, but he managed to progress enough in his recovery from his foot injury to play Sunday. He was limited to extra-point duties in Sunday's NFC East clash, and he's a perfect 14-for-14 on extra-point tries in his four games with the Commanders while filling in for Austin Seibert (groin).

Analysis: Gonzalez missed practice Wednesday to attend the birth of his child, but he's available to suit up Sunday.

Not practicing to begin Week 16
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Gonzalez (foot) won't practice Wednesday while he awaits the birth of his child, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Washington won't have any kickers available at practice to kick off Week 16 prep, as practice-squad member Greg Joseph is also awaiting the birth of a child. Joseph filled in as the Commanders' kicker in the Week 15 win over the Saints while Gonzalez was sidelined with a left foot injury, but it's unclear where Gonzalez currently stands in his recovery heading into this Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Gonzalez (left foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest at New Orleans.
Analysis: Despite following an LP/FP/FP practice regimen this week due to a left foot injury, Gonzalez isn't in the clear for Week 15 action. As a contingency, the Commanders signed Greg Joseph to their practice squad Friday, and if he's elevated Saturday, it could indicate that Gonzalez is in danger of missing Sunday's game.

His activity at practices Thursday and Friday should provide more insight with regard to Gonzalez's chances of being available for Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

Seibert was placed on injured reserve Nov. 26 and is eligible to return for Washington's Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys at the earliest.

The Commanders elevated Gonzalez from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Tennessee.
Analysis: This move became a foregone conclusion when Austin Seibert was placed on injured reserve Friday due to a groin injury. Gonzalez did well serving as the Commanders' kicker in Weeks 10 and 11, making all three of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries. Seibert came back for Week 12 but struggled against Dallas and subsequently landed on IR, opening the door for Gonzalez to reprise his role as the team's kicker.

Reverts to practice squad
Gonzalez reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Gonzalez was elevated from the practice squad for Thursday's game against the Eagles as Austin Seibert was sidelined due to a hip injury. Gonzalez converted on a 45-yard field-goal attempt and made his lone extra-point try during Washington's 26-18 loss. If Seibert is unable to play Week 12 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Nov. 24, Gonzalez will likely be promoted to the active roster for a third consecutive game.

Heads back to practice squad
Gonzalez reverted to Washington's practice squad Monday.
Analysis: With Austin Seibert (hip) out of the lineup in Sunday's loss to the Steelers, Gonzalez played his first game of the season and was perfect, making two field goals from beyond 40 yards and all three extra-point tries. The Commanders play Thursday versus the Eagles, and if Seibert -- who didn't practice Monday -- isn't ready in time, Gonzalez will likely get the call again.

Set to kick in Week 10
The Commanders elevated Gonzalez from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Washington signed Gonzalez to the practice squad Friday, and he was activated one day later due to the team's primary placekicker, Austin Seibert, being ruled out for Week 10 due to a hip injury. Gonzalez will consequently take Seibert's place Sunday against the Steelers. Gonzalez hasn't kicked in an NFL game since 2021, when he went 20-for-22 on field-goal tries and 22-for-23 on extra-point attempts over 12 appearances with Carolina.

With Washington's top kicker, Austin Seibert (hip), dealing with an injury and logging a DNP to open the team's week of practice, Gonzalez has a chance to be elevated to the Commanders' active roster for Week 10's matchup against the Steelers.

The 49ers released Gonzalez (calf) from injured reserve Tuesday with an injury settlement, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After suffering a calf strain in San Francisco's Aug. 25 preseason finale, Gonzalez was moved to injured reserve last week ahead of final roster cutdowns. The transaction would have kept Gonzalez out for the rest of the season, but by agreeing to the settlement, he'll be able to hit the open market and sign with a team as soon as he's healthy.

Analysis: Gonzalez sustained a calf injury ahead of Friday's preseason game against the Chargers, and coach Kyle Shanahan recently said the kicker would be sidelined for a few weeks. However, unless Gonzalez is waived with an injury settlement at some point, he'll be forced to miss the 2023 season.

Out a few weeks
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Saturday that Gonzalez will be sidelined for a few weeks due to a calf injury, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez presumably injured his calf in pregame warmups ahead of Friday's exhibition against the Chargers, which left the 49ers without an available placekicker due to rookie Jake Moody's (quadriceps) own health concern. Moody is considered day-to-day versus Gonzalez's week-to-week prognosis, so the former seemingly has a leg up to be San Francisco's kicker Week 1at Pittsburgh.

Dealt to 49ers
Gonzalez, who previously appeared set to be released by the Panthers, was instead traded to the 49ers on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez missed the majority of the 2022 season with a groin injury. Instead of bringing him back, the Panthers opted to re-sign his replacement, Eddy Pineiro, after he drilled 33 of 35 field-goal attempts and 30 of 32 extra-point tries across 17 games. Gonzalez joins a 49ers roster that was previously without a kicker, and it remains to be seen if San Francisco brings any training camp competition to challenge him.

Analysis: After missing most of the 2022 season with a groin injury, the Panthers decided to release Gonzalez and re-sign Eddy Pineiro.

Hits IR, done for the year
The Panthers placed Gonzalez (groin) on injured reserve Tuesday, possibly ending his 2022 season, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez may require surgery to address a groin injury he sustained during Carolina's preseason finale versus Buffalo, and the timing of the 27-year-old kicker's placement on IR means he will miss the entire 2022 campaign unless he works out an injury settlement with the team. The Panthers don't currently have another kicker on the roster, meaning the team will have to prioritize making a signing in the aftermath of league-wide roster cutdowns.

Analysis: Gonzalez suffered the injury during Friday's preseason finale, but the extent of the issue remains unknown, though he is expected to miss a significant amount of time. He's currently the only kicker on Carolina's roster, so expect the Panthers to make a move for a replacement soon.

Gonzalez is expected to be placed on injured reserve after suffering a "significant" groin injury, Ellis L. Williams of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Analysis: It's unclear if the injury is of the season-ending variety, but it certainly appears as if the veteran kicker will be out for a long period of time regardless.

Officially has groin injury
Gonzalez suffered a groin injury during Friday's preseason contest against the Bills, Schuyler Callihan of SI.com reports.
Analysis: The injury didn't happen on the field, but instead on the sideline as Gonzalez readied himself for a potential field goal or extra point in the third quarter. After taking a practice kick into the net, he went to the ground and eventually was carted to the locker room. While Gonzalez was deemed questionable to return, the Panthers soon may have to hold tryouts if the issue is considered a serious one.

Analysis: According to Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site, Gonzalez went down after attempting a practice kick on the sideline as the team's offense entered the red zone. Gonzalez was steady for Carolina last season, making 20 of 22 field-goal attempts and 22 of 23 point-after tries in 12 appearances.

Analysis: Gonzalez converted from 27 yards on his lone field goal, which along with a third-quarter PAT, netted him four points total.

Prior to missing Carolina's final four games of 2021, Gonzalez made 20 of his 22 field-goal attempts and hit 22 of his 23 extra-point tries in 12 games.

Analysis: Gonzalez is thus done for the regular season due to the quad injury he suffered during pregame warmups prior to Sunday's loss to the Bills. As a replacement for Gonzalez, the Panthers signed Lirim Hajrullahu off the Washington's practice squad.

Gonzalez could be placed on injured reserve after he was diagnosed with a strained right quadriceps following an MRI on Monday, Jonathan M. Alexander of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Analysis: The diagnosis is good news for Gonzalez, whom the Panthers feared had torn a muscle while warming up prior to Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Bills. Since the Panthers didn't have another player with NFL kicking experience on the roster, Carolina eschewed extra-point tries on both of its touchdowns and instead went for two.

After Gonzalez was helped to the locker room, Carolina had a number of players take part in kickoffs for the remainder of warmups.

Suffers injury in warmups
Gonzalez required assistance off the field after he suffered an apparent leg injury during warmups prior to Sunday's game in Buffalo, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Though Gonzalez officially remains active for the contest, he looks like he could be at risk of not playing in the game after coming down with the injury. Carolina doesn't have any other placekickers on the roster, so the team will most likely turn to punter Lachlan Edwards to handle that role. Edwards' inexperience as a placekicker could prompt head coach Matt Rhule to forgo longer-range extra-point and field-goal attempts throughout the contest.

Misses field goal
Gonzalez missed his only field-goal attempt but made all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 36-28 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Gonzalez went wide left from 54 yards on his lone field-goal opportunity. Although another miss won't help Gonzalez' job security, it being a long-distance misfire is at least more excusable and the veteran made his four other kicks Sunday. Through three games with the Panthers, Gonzalez now boasts 18 points.

Misses two kicks
Gonzalez missed one of his three field-goal attempts as well as one of his three extra-point tries in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Gonzalez could be on shaky ground after just one appearance for the Panthers, which have already cut two kickers for being inconsistent this season. Although Gonzalez converted from 20 and 42 yards on his respective field-goal makes, he had a 55-yarder blocked before missing a PAT in the fourth quarter. While it remains to be seen whether Gonzalez will stick with Carolina, the quick turnaround ahead of Thursday's game versus Houston could bode in his favor.

Analysis: Gonzalez will be forced to miss the final three games of the regular season due to his back injury.

Not playing Week 15
The Cardinals have ruled Gonzalez (back) out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez didn't practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday, so he'll be sidelined for a second straight game while he contends with the back issue. In Gonzalez's stead, Mike Nugent will likely be elevated from the practice squad once again to handle kicking duties for Arizona. Nugent proved to be a capable replacement in the Cardinals' Week 14 win over the Giants, knocking down all four of his field-goal tries and both of his point-after attempts.

Gonzalez (back) didn't practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez was seen working out on the side during the open portion of the session, setting the stage for his second straight DNP. He'll have one more chance to prove the health of his back this week, but if he's unable to do so the Cardinals are poised to elevate Mike Nugent from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Not practicing with main group
Gonzalez (back) was spotted working off to the side Thursday and looks set to go down as a non-participant at practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: While it's somewhat encouraging that Gonzalez wasn't absent from practice entirely, the kicker will likely need to join the main group in some fashion Friday to have a shot at playing Sunday against the Eagles. If Gonzalez is sidelined for a second straight week, however, the Cardinals would likely call up Mike Nugent from the practice squad to handle kicking duties.

Held out of practice
Gonzalez (back) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Analysis: A late addition to the injury report last week due to a back injury, Gonzalez was ruled out prior to this past Sunday's game versus the Giants. Now that he's absent entirely to begin Week 15 prep, he may be trending toward a second straight inactive status. If Gonzalez sits out Sunday against the Eagles, the Cardinals will turn to practice squad member Mike Nugent at kicker.

Will remain Arizona's kicker
Coach Kliff Kingsbury said Monday that Gonzalez is still the Cardinals' kicker, Kevin Zimmerman of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Analysis: Gonzalez missed a 48-yard field goal -- his only attempt of the afternoon -- in Sunday's 38-28 loss to the Rams. The fourth-year kicker has made just 16 of 22 field-goal tries (73 percent) this season, including key misses that directly cost the team wins. Nevertheless, Kingsbury is reiterating his confidence in Gonzalez, hoping he can get back to his 2019 form, when he hit 89 percent of field-goal attempts. The Cardinals travel to New York to face the Giants in Week 14.

Costly misfire Sunday
Gonzalez connected on one of two field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: The Cardinals rolled out Gonzalez to try a 45-yard field goal to put the team up three points with 1:47 remaining in regulation. The 25-year-old pushed the kick wide right, providing the Patriots with a chance to win the game. As time expired in the fourth quarter, Patriots kicker Nick Folk drilled a 50-yarder to hand the Cardinals another heartbreaking defeat.

Scores three points Week 11
Gonzalez hit all three extra points during Thursday's 28-21 defeat in Seattle.
Analysis: Just five days removed from putting up a season-best 14 points -- four field goals, two PATs -- Gonzalez matched a campaign low with just three points Week 11. The performance pushed him down to 17th among placekickers in points per game with 7.7, the result of him ranking 13th in field-goal attempts (19) on the year. Fortunately, the offense has provided the second-most point-after tries (33) in the NFL, helping to provide some utility.

Nails all six kicks Week 10
Gonzalez made all four field-goal attempts and both point-after tries during Sunday's 32-30 win against the Bills.
Analysis: With 14 points during this Week 10 epic, Gonzalez moved into 13th place in total points (74) and 12th in points per game (8.2) among NFL kickers this season. The latter mark is ahead of his 7.9 points per game from a season ago, placing him on the fringe of weekly relevance as a complement to the league's seventh-best scoring attack (29.6 points per game) and the No. 1 offense overall (425.4 yards per game).

Misses potential game-tying kick
Gonzalez made one of two field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Gonzalez converted from 37 yards on his first field goal but didn't have enough leg on a 49-yard attempt to tie the game just after the two-minute warning. That costly miss came after a turbulent outing in Arizona's game prior, so Gonzalez will undoubtedly aim for more consistency ahead of this Sunday's visit from the Bills.

Gonzalez connected on his one field-goal attempt and added five extra points in Monday's 38-10 win against the Cowboys.
Analysis: Two weeks in a row Gonzalez has yet to miss an attempt.

Analysis: After not getting a FGA in Week 4, Gonzalez nailed a 47-yarder in the second quarter Sunday, bringing him to 4-for-6 from beyond 40 yards on the season.

Analysis: Gonzalez converted from 54 yards on his lone field goal but kicked wide right on his second PAT attempt, giving him a couple misses from that distance through just three games this season. Although Gonzalez sports a respectable 23 points to date, he'll want to cut out his simple mistakes and stop costing his team easy points going forward.

Gonzalez nailed all three field-goal attempts and all three point-after tries during Sunday's 30-15 victory against Washington.
Analysis: Gonzalez was busy from the outset of the contest, hitting two extra points in the first quarter and not looking back. Along the way, he made field goals from 49, 33 and 28 yards Week 2. With 18 points through two games, Gonzalez sits in a tie for eighth among kickers in scoring and is a good bet to remain in the top 10, as he's attached to a Cardinals offense led by Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins and Kenyan Drake.

Gonzalez made one of three field-goal attempts and all three point-after tries during Sunday's 24-20 victory at San Francisco.
Analysis: During his breakout 2019 campaign, Gonzalez missed just four field goals in 16 games, three of them from 40-49 yards. In Week 1 of this year, his misfires came from 52 and 49 yards, while his sole success was a 56-yarder. Gonzalez will look to get back on track this coming Sunday against the Washington Football Team, whose stingy defense could force the Cardinals into more FGAs than PATs.

Analysis: The 24-year-old converted 31 of 35 field-goal attempts and 34 of 35 extra-point attempts in 2019, finishing the season fourth in the NFL in points.

Ends 2019 fourth in points
Gonzalez connected on 31 of 35 field-goal attempts and 34 of 35 point-after tries during the 2019 campaign.
Analysis: Gonzalez lacked consistency during stints with the Browns and Cardinals in his first two pro campaigns, striking true on 70.6 percent of his 34 field-goal attempts in 23 games. On the other hand, he had similar success to 2019 on extra points (33 of 37), so there were signs that competency was lurking.

Makes lone extra point
Gonzalez didn't try a field goal but connected on his only extra-point try in Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: The Cardinals struggled to the tune of just 198 yards of total offense and trailed by 20 points at halftime, so it was a negative game script for Gonzalez, who didn't try an extra point until the fourth quarter. Despite the disappointing performance, fantasy owners should still feel comfortable deploying Gonzalez against the Steelers in Week 14 since he's second in the league with 26 converted field goals this year.

Accrues five points Thursday
Gonzalez hit his only field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries during Thursday's 28-25 defeat to the 49ers.
Analysis: Gonzalez attempted between two and five field goals in each of the first eight games of the season, so Thursday's one try marked a season low. Moreover, he missed out on a PAT when the Cardinals went for two to cut the lead to three following Andy Isabella's 88-yard TD catch with less than five minutes remaining. Gonzalez will look to bounce back in a Week 10 matchup in Tampa Bay.
