McPherson made 25 of his 28 field-goal tries and converted 41 of his 44 extra-point attempts in 17 games with Cincinnati in 2025.

EDGE Analysis

After converting on a career-low 72.7 percent of his field-goal attempts in 2024, McPherson recorded a career high 89.3 percent in that category in 2025. He also showed improvement from distance compared to last season, making 15 of his 18 tries from 40-plus yards out compared to six of 12 in 2024. He still probably hasn't justified the three-year, $14 million contract the Bengals gave him in August of 2024, but he would project as an above-average fantasy option at kicker in 2026 if starting quarterback Joe Burrow can stay healthy and lead a more potent offense than the one Cincinnati had for much of this year.

McPherson made his lone field-goal attempt and four of five extra-point tries in Sunday's 37-14 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson's field goal was boomed from 57 yards, but his failed PAT in the second quarter was McPherson's first missed extra point of the season. Through 16 games, McPherson is 25-for-28 on field goals and 41-for-42 on PATs. McPherson will wrap up the 2025 season in Week 18 against Cleveland.

McPherson made his lone field-goal attempt and all six extra-point tries in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson's field goal came from 45 yards away, and he sandwiched it with six PATs on a day the Bengals hung 35 straight points on the Dolphins after falling behind 14-10 in the second quarter. On the season, McPherson has converted 24 of 27 field-goal tries and all 37 extra-point attempts across 15 contests. He'll be a premier fantasy kicker at home next Sunday against Arizona.

McPherson did not log a field-goal attempt or an extra-point try in Sunday's 24-0 loss to Baltimore.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson went without a field-goal try for the second straight week, which is quite the change of pace after he had gone 12-for-13 on field-goal tries over his four previous contests. The kicker has gone 23-for-26 on field-goal attempts, including 4-for-7 from 50-plus yards, and he'll look to get back on track against the Dolphins in Week 16.

McPherson made all four of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 39-34 loss to the Bills.

EDGE Analysis

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.

McPherson made all six of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Thursday night's 32-14 win over the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson accounted for Cincinnati's first 12 points, making kicks from 31, 42, 24 and 33 yards out to give the Bengals a 12-7 lead at halftime. He then kicked a pair of PATs before making kicks from 52 and 41 yards in the fourth quarter. Through 12 games this season, McPherson is 23-for-26 on field goals a perfect 27-of-27 on extra points.

McPherson made both of his field-goal attempts and each of his two extra-point tries during the Bengals' 26-20 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson opened Sunday's scoring with a 54-yard field goal in the first quarter, and he closed out the first half with a 63-yarder as time expired. That 63-yard field goal was the longest of his career, and he is now 3-for-7 on field goals from 50-plus yards this season. After making just one field goal in each of the first six games of the regular season, McPherson has made two or more in four of his last five games. Over that span, he has gone 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts and 14-for-14 on extra-point tries.

McPherson converted both of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 34-12 loss to the Steelers.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson's field goals came from 43 and 48 yards, and through 10 games this season, McPherson has made 15 of 18 field goals and all 23 of his extra points. Kicking in Cincinnati's offense, McPherson is an attractive fantasy option at the position.

McPherson went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and connected on all four of his point-after tries during the Bengals' 47-42 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson helped the Bengals keep pace in the first half with field goals from 41 and 33 yards, but his 54-yard attempt late in the fourth quarter came up short. It was his third missed field goal of the season, with the other misses coming from 50-plus yards. McPherson has scored at least 10 points in two of his last three games, and his scoring floor should be steady if Joe Flacco can continue to move the Bengals' offense down the field in the absence of Joe Burrow (toe). McPherson is 13-for-16 on field-goal attempts and 23-for-23 on extra-point tries through nine regular-season games.

McPherson made his lone field-goal attempt and all five of his point-after tries during the Bengals' 39-38 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

McPherson opened the game's scoring with a 26-yard chip shot in the first quarter before tacking on five PATs. The fifth-year pro is 11-for-13 on field-goal attempts and 19-for-19 on extra-point tries through eight regular-season games; he has been perfect in seven of those contests, with his lone blemish coming against the Packers in Week 6, when he missed two field goals.
