McManus made both extra points he attempted in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Bears. Possessions were limited for the Packers on Sunday and they attempted a two-point conversion on one of their three touchdown drives, so McManus was limited to only the two extra-point attempts in Week 11. Green Bay will next face a San Francisco team that ranks middle-of-the-pack against opposing kickers, both in recent weeks and over the course of the season.

McManus made both extra points he attempted in Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Bears. Possessions were limited for the Packers on Sunday and they attempted a two-point conversion on one of their three touchdown drives, so McManus was limited to only the two extra-point attempts in Week 11. Green Bay will next face a San Francisco team that ranks middle-of-the-pack against opposing kickers, both in recent weeks and over the course of the season.
McManus made two of three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions. Sunday's rainy conditions at Lambeau Field certainly were not ideal for kicking, but nonetheless, McManus misfired from 46 yards out in the second quarter -- his first miss in three games with the Packers. Green Bay will be on bye in Week 10, so those who have added him to their fantasy rosters will need to look for another option. There is reason to replace him altogether, but it should be noted that since McManus made his season debut in Week 7, only five more kickers -- pending the results of the Monday night game -- have attempted more field goals.
McManus made all three field goals he attempted -- including a game-winning 24-yarder as time expired -- and three extra points in Sunday's 30-27 victory over the Jaguars. McManus buried a game-winning kick against the Texans in Week 7, and he accomplished the same feat just seven days later. He has made all 10 kicks he has gotten up -- four field goals and six extra points -- since joining the Packers, which is exactly what Green Bay was looking for when adding him to the roster in mid-October.
McManus made all three extra points he attempted and a game-winning 45-yard field goal as time expired in Sunday's 24-22 victory over the Texans. McManus replaced Brayden Narveson as Green Bay's kicker last week, and it took him no time at all to make an impact for his new team. The Packers have been seeking consistency at the kicker spot for a while, so he figures to hold down the job for a team that ranks seventh in the league at 26.6 points per game with two games to go in Week 7.
McManus signed a one-year deal with the Packers on Tuesday and is expected to kick for them in Sunday's tilt with the Texans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. McManus spent his first nine seasons with the Broncos before kicking in Jacksonville during the 2023 campaign. He converted 30-of-37 field goal attempts and all 35 extra-points during his stint with the Jaguars. The veteran then landed with the Commanders in the offseason, but was subsequently let go one week after reports he was the subject of a civil lawsuit. The 33-year-old will now look to improve Green Bay's kicking game, which has struggled to find a replacement for Mason Crosby since he left town following the 2022 season.
McManus was released by the Commanders on Sunday. McManus signed a one-year deal to join Washington in March, but he'll now be looking for a new opportunity elsewhere. The Commanders don't currently have another kicker on their roster, which may change as soon as Monday.
McManus agreed to terms on a one-year, $3.6 million contract with Washington on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. McManus' deal presumably indicates Joey Slye will not be brought back by Washington. The 32-year-old McManus spent his first nine seasons in Denver before converting 30 of 37 field goals and all 35 extra points for the Jaguars in 2023. It remains to be seen if the Commanders will bring in any competition for the veteran kicker.
The 32-year-old missed wide right from 55 yards during the fourth quarter, but he otherwise converted from 40, 48 and 53 yards to help propel Jacksonville to a divisional victory. McManus has made a career-high 88 percent of his field goals this season, with two of his three misses coming beyond 50 yards.
The veteran kicker converted field goals from 25 and 30 yards during the second quarter and remains perfect on extra points this season. McManus is 20-for-22 on field-goal attempts this season, with both misses coming against the Texans in Week 3.
