Maher missed one of his two field-goal attempts and made both his extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Redskins.

EDGE Analysis

Maher hit the left upright on a 52-yard attempt as time expired, erasing Dallas' hopes of heading into overtime. Prior to that letdown, he hit a 47-yarder during the fourth quarter. Through seven games, he's been pretty reliable, missing just two of 30 total kicking attempts.

Maher connected on all four of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra points in Sunday's win over the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

It was a huge day for the 28-year-old NFL rookie, both in points and in distance -- two of the field goals came from 50-plus yards. Maher has now booted multiple field goals in five straight games and hasn't missed a kick of any sort since Week 1, making him one of the most productive fantasy kickers around through the early part of the schedule.

Maher made all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Texans.

EDGE Analysis

Maher converted from 27, 43 and 48 yards on his three field-goal efforts, staying perfect since Week 1. With 39 points over those four games, he's benefitted from a Cowboys offense that's struggled to find the end zone.

Maher connected on both his extra-point attempts and all four of his field-goal tries, including a 38-yarder on the final play of the game, in Sunday's 26-24 win over the Lions.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie has now converted eight straight field goals since missing the first attempt of his NFL career. The Cowboys' offense looked better in Week 4 but still had difficulty finishing drives, and Maher could prove to be one of the better fantasy options available for the rest of the season, as he's likely to get multiple FG attempts each week.

Maher kicked two field goals and an extra point in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

EDGE Analysis

His 50-yard field goal in the second quarter gave the Cowboys their first points of the day. After a shaky NFL debut in Week 1, Maher hasn't missed a kick in the two games since, but the team's lackluster offense limits his fantasy ceiling heading into a Week 4 tilt with the Lions.

Maher connected on both his field-goal attempts and both his extra points in Sunday night's win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

It was a solid bounce-back performance after his shaky NFL debut in Week 1, when he missed his only kick. Maher figures to get a long leash to prove he can fill Dan Bailey's cleats, and Maher's job security likely improved in Week 2 if only because the free-agent ranks figure to be depleted after a number of kicking disasters around the league.

Maher failed to score a point in Sunday's loss to the Panthers, missing his only field-goal attempt from 47 yards.

EDGE Analysis

The Cowboys were down 16-0 in the fourth quarter by the time they scored their first TD, necessitating a two-point conversion rather than an extra point. Maher's production figures to be limited in 2018 until the Dallas offense shows signs of life, making the former CFL player a very risky fantasy option even before you consider his potentially shaky job security.

Maher beat out Dan Bailey and will be the Cowboys' kicker to begin the season, Nick Eatman of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bailey has connected on the most field goals in Cowboys history (186), but the front office appears to have gone with the cheaper option in Maher. Speaking of, Maher has no NFL stats on his resume but has bounced about the CFL, boasting a 78.1 percent rate on field goals and a punt average of 45.8. With steady punter Chris Jones on the roster, Maher will focus on place-kicking now that he's locked down an NFL gig.

Maher signed a contract with the Cowboys on Wednesday, Drew Davison of the Dallas Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Maher returned to the Canadian Football League in 2017 after a failed stint with the Browns last season. While he's effective at both kicking and punting, the 28-year-old is unlikely to push for a starting job in Dallas, but will at least help keep kicker Dan Bailey and punter Chris Jones from being overworked this offseason.

Maher was waived by the Browns on Tuesday, Jesse Palmer of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The former CFL kicker signed with the Browns earlier in the offseason but got the boot after the team selected kicker Zane Gonzalez in the seventh-round of last weekend's draft.
