Reliable from inside 50 in 2024
Gay connected on 31-of-37 field-goal attempts and all 33 extra-point tries across 16 regular-season games this season. All six of Gay's misses came from 50 yards or longer. Gay, in his sixth season, made at least 80 percent of his field-goal tries for the fifth year in a row. He has also missed just one extra point in two seasons and 33 regular-season games with the Colts since signing a four-year, $22.5-million deal in 2023.
Misses 54-yard field goal
Gay went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and converted all three of his extra-point tries during the Colts' 45-33 loss to the Giants on Sunday. Gay got the Colts on the board late in the first quarter with a 32-yard field goal, but he missed his next attempt from 54 yards out early in the second frame. He bounced back with a 29-yard chip shot later in the second quarter, and his next three kicks came on extra-point attempts. Gay is now 27-for-32 on field-goal attempts and 31-for-31 on extra-point tries through 15 regular-season games.
Scores eight points against Titans
Gay went 1-for-2 on his field-goal attempts and made all five of his extra-point tries during the Colts' 38-30 win over the Titans on Sunday. Gay entered Sunday's game with a questionable tag due to a neck injury, but he was cleared during pregame warmups. He connected on a 31-yard field goal late in the second quarter to give the Colts a 10-point lead, but his 55-yard field-goal attempt early in the fourth quarter that would've put Indianapolis up by 19 points sailed right. Gay had gone 10-for-10 on field-goal tries over the Colts' five games prior to Sunday's AFC South clash, and through 14 regular-season contests he's gone 25-for-29 on field-goal attempts and has made all 28 of his extra-point tries.
Active versus Titans
Gay, who had been listed as questionable with a neck injury, is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Titans. After not practicing Wednesday and Thursday, Gay practiced fully Friday, setting the stage for the kicker to be available for Sunday's contest. In 13 games this season, Gay has recorded 95 points, while connecting on 24 of his 27 field-goal attempts and all 23 of his extra-point tries, a pace that puts him on the fantasy radar in deeper leagues ahead of the next wave of Week 16 action.
Questionable for Week 16
Gay (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. After logging a pair of DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday, Gay was able to practice fully Friday, suggesting he's looking good for Sunday. After a down 2023 season in which he made just 80.5 percent of his field-goal attempts, Gay has righted the ship again this season, making 24 of 27 field-goal attempts and all 23 of his extra-point tries. The Colts don't currently employ another kicker.
Doesn't practice Thursday
Gay (neck) did not participate in Thursday's practice. Gay has now logged consecutive DNPs to start the week due to a neck injury he may have picked up during the Colts' Week 15 loss to the Broncos. If the Colts sign a placekicker to the practice squad, that would indicate that Gay is in jeopardy of being sidelined for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Nursing neck injury
Gay (neck) didn't practice Wednesday. Gay converted both of his field-goal attempts and made his lone point-after try in the Colts' Week 15 loss to the Broncos, but it now appears he sustained a neck injury in the process. Indianapolis doesn't have another kicker on its practice squad or active roster, so the team may need to add one if Gay is unable to practice again Thursday. Regardless, Gay's participation Thursday and Friday will provide the best indication of whether he can suit up in Week 16, when the Colts face the Titans.
Accurate in road loss
Gay made both of his two field-goal tries and converted his only extra-point attempt during Sunday's 31-13 loss at Denver. Gay didn't see a ton of action on a day where the Colts turned the football over five times, but he did extend his streak of games without a missed kick to five. He's been a bright spot for Indianapolis this season, but he'll need his team to hold onto the ball if he's going to put up big fantasy numbers in Week 16 versus the Titans.
Makes only field-goal try Sunday
Gay converted his only field-goal attempt while going 2-for-2 on PATs in Sunday's 25-24 win over the Patriots. Gay made a chip-shot 25-yard field goal in the third quarter, giving Indianapolis a 17-16 advantage at that point. It was the first contest since Week 3 that Gay did not make multiple field goals, ending a nine-game streak for the kicker. Gay has now gone 22-for-25 on field-goal tries while making all 22 of his extra-point attempts in 2024.
