Folk signed a two-year, $5 million contract to remain with the Patriots on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Folk put together a consistent 2021 season, converting 36 of his 39 field-goal attempts and 42 of his 47 extra-point attempts. That was enough for the Patriots to commit to him for a pair of additional campaigns. Folk played through a knee injury for much of last year, but he otherwise has shown no signs of slowing down despite the fact that he will be 38 years old for half of the 2022 campaign.

Folk made 36 of his 39 field-goal attempts and 42 of 47 extra-point attempts during the 2021 regular season, totaling 150 points over 17 games.

EDGE Analysis

Folk, who has been in the NFL since 2007, easily eclipsed his previous career high in points (131) through his first 16 games in 2021, then added six more in the team's regular-season finale to tie Las Vegas' Daniel Carlson for the league lead in that category. The 37-year-old, who managed a left knee issue down the stretch, is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. His strong campaign should land him a kicking job in 2022, though it's unclear if New England inteds to bring him back. Quinn Nordin -- who recently signed a future contract with New England -- would be an option if Folk isn't re-signed.

Folk (knee) is active for Saturday's wild-card game at Buffalo.

EDGE Analysis

Folk has been playing through a knee injury for the majority of the campaign, but it hasn't stopped him from making 36 of 39 field-goal attempts and 42 of 47 point-after tries through 17 games. He'll continue to take on placekicking duties for the Patriots in their playoff opener.

Folk (knee) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice and is listed as questionable for Saturday night's game against Buffalo.

EDGE Analysis

The kicker once again entered the week with a knee issue, something that he has dealt with since September. Folk has yet to miss a contest while dealing with the problem, so he is expected to be ready to go Saturday for the Patriots' wild-card game against the Bills.

Folk made his lone field-goal attempt (from 43 yards) in Sunday's 33-24 loss to the Dolphins en route to recording six points.

EDGE Analysis

Though the veteran kicker has been managing a left knee issue of late, he suited up for all 17 of the Patriots' regular season games, while making 36-of-39 field goal tries and 42-of-47 extra point attempts. Meanwhile, the 150 points Folk recorded tied him with Las Vegas' Daniel Carlson for the league lead in that category.

Folk (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Folk has been on the injury report most of the season due to the knee injury, but he's kicked for New England in all 16 games. He should be available again Sunday, barring a setback.

Folk made his only field-goal attempt (from 43 yards) in Sunday's 50-10 win over the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

In the process, Folk, who hit five of his six extra-point tries, recorded eight points, bringing his 16-game total to a fantasy-friendly 144 points. Though the veteran kicker continues to manage a knee issue, his status for the Patriots' Week 18 game against the Dolphins is not in doubt.

Folk (knee) will play Sunday against the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis
