Gostkowski made all four of his extra point attempts in Sunday's 36-33 win over the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Through three games, Gostkowski has recorded 25 points, while making all five of his field goal attempts and hitting 10 of 11 extra points. He'll have a chance to rebound (for his fantasy owners) in Week 4, when the Patriots host the Panthers. Last season, Gostkowski was held without a field goal attempt twice in 16 games.

Gostkowski made all three of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 36-20 win over the Saints, en route to recording 12 points in Week 2.
EDGE Analysis
Gostkowski missed one of his four extra-point tries, but his day was otherwise fruitful from a fantasy perspective. The Patriots' offense is a little banged up these days, but with Tom Brady at QB, Gostkowski still profiles as one of the more reliable fantasy kickers around. Only three kickers (Ryan Succop, Giorgio Tavecchio and Greg Zuerlein) have topped Gostkowski's mark of 21 points through two weeks.

Gostkowski made both of his field-goal attempts in Thursday's 42-27 loss to the Chiefs, en route to recording nine points in his regular-season debut.
EDGE Analysis
Gostkowski's makes Thursday were from 25 and 32 yards out. While kicking behind the team's Tom Brady-helmed offense, Gostkowski profiles as a quality fantasy option. Looking ahead to Week 2, it's not hard to imagine the Patriots/Saints contest in New Orleans turning into a shootout.

Gostkowski made all three of his field goal attempts in Friday's preseason 30-28 win over the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
Gostkowski connected from 46, 25 and 45 yards out Friday, including the game-winning field goal with two seconds left in the fourth quarter. The only downside of his 10-point effort in the contest was a missed extra point. After leading the NFL in kicking points four consecutive seasons, Gostkowski took a step back in 2016, logging a mark of 127, down 24 points from his 2015 total. Given his career body of work and that fact that he'll be operating behind a potent Tom Brady-helmed offense, it wouldn't be surprising to see Gostkowski engineer a fantasy bounce-back in 2017.

Gostkowski (illness) will play in Sunday's Super Bowl against the Falcons, Jeff Howe of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gostkowski dealt with a two-day stomach illness recently, which forced him to sit out Thursday's practice. Due to the nature of his absence, it doesn't seem like he'll be limited in any way for Sunday's important game.

Gostkowski (illness) missed Thursday's practice, ESPN's Mike Reiss reports.
EDGE Analysis
Given that the Super Bowl isn't until Feb. 5, Gostkowski has plenty of time to overcome his illness before the Patriots' big game. After logging 127 points in the regular season, Gostkowski has made all five of his field goal attempts and hit seven of eight extra points en rout to recording 22 points over the team's two postseason contests.

Gostkowski made two of his three field goal attempts en route to recording nine points in Week 17's 35-14 win over the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Gostkowski's miss arrived on a 52-yard attempt at the end of the first half of Sunday's tilt. Gostkowski, who turns 33 later this month, finished up the 2016 regular season with 127 points, while making 27 of 32 field goal attempts and nailing 46 of 49 extra points. By his lofty standards, it was a subpar campaign, but heading into the postseason, he's a top level option in fantasy playoff formats, given his steady effort down the stretch and the potential for the Patriots to make a lengthy run.

Gostkowski hit both of his field goal attempts en route to recording 11 points in Saturday's 41-3 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Per ESPN's Mike Reiss, Gostkowski has been on a roll since missing a 39-yard attempt against the Jets on Nov. 27. Since then, the 32-year-old kicker has made all nine of his field goals tries (with five of the makes coming from 40 yards or longer), as well as all 12 of his extra points. A sluggish start to the season ensures that Gostkowski will fall short of the fantasy standards he set over the previous fours seasons, but he has picked up the pace of late, scoring double-digit points in four of his last five outings.

EDGE Analysis
After being limited to four extra points in Week 14's win over the Ravens, Gostkowski bounced back for his fantasy owners Sunday and now has logged double-digit points in three of his last four outings. Over that span, Gostkowski has hit 10 of his 11 field goal attempts.

Gostkowski made four extra points in Monday's 30-23 win over the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
The flow of Monday's game led to Gostkowski not having any field goal attempts for the second time this season, but odds are that he'll have more chances on that front this coming Sunday against the Broncos.
