News

  • Joins Jaguars

    Patterson signed a reserve/future contract with the Jaguars on Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Brandon McManus, the Jaguars' kicker in 2023, is slated to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason. If McManus ultimately leaves for another opportunity, Patterson would become the team's only player at the position. The 24-year-old converted 16 of 18 field-goal attempts across 15 games this season between the Lions (13) and Browns (two), while also nailing 35 of 37 extra points.

  • Moves back to practice squad

    The Browns reverted Patterson to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: After joining Cleveland on Christmas Day, Patterson worked as the team's kicker in the final two weeks of the regular season and in the the wild-card loss to Houston this past Saturday. He attempted and made just one field goal -- a 33-yarder -- during that span and also went 8-for-9 on extra-point attempts. Dustin Hopkins was effective this season for the Browns before injuring his hamstring in Week 16 and will likely retain his role as the team's kicker in the final year of his current…read more

  • Will kick in wild-card round

    Patterson was elevated from Cleveland's practice squad Friday and will kick in Saturday's wild-card round game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Patterson's elevation was expected after the Browns ruled Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) out for the team's playoff opener. While filling in for Hopkins over the last two games of the regular season, Patterson converted his only field-goal attempt from 33 yards and made six of seven PAT attempts. Earlier in the season, he made 15 of 17 field-goal attempts and 35 of 37 PAT attempts for the Lions.

  • Goes back to practice squad

    Patterson reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: For a second game in a row Sunday at Cincinnati, Patterson filled in at placekicker for Dustin Hopkins, making both his point-after tries. Hopkins hasn't practiced since injuring his left hamstring during a Week 16 win at Houston, but he'll have opportunities to do so as the Browns prepare for Saturday's wild-card contest against the Texans on the road. Patterson would handle kicking duties again this weekend if Hopkins isn't able to suit up.

  • Elevated to active roster

    Patterson was elevated to the Browns' active roster Saturday.

    Analysis: Patterson is set to kick for the Browns in the regular-season finale versus the Bengals, as Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) has been ruled out. The 24-year-old Patterson was with the Lions for the first 13 games of the season, where he converted 15 of 17 field goals and 35 of 37 extra points.

  • Reverts to practice squad

    Patterson reverted to Cleveland's practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Filling in for an injured Dustin Hopkins Thursday night against the Jets, Patterson made his lone field-goal attempt and four of his five extra-point tries. It's unclear if Hopkins will be ready for the Browns' Week 18 regular-season finale.

  • Fills in for Hopkins

    Patterson converted his lone field-goal attempt and four of five extra-point kicks in Thursday's 37-20 win over the Jets in Week 17.

    Analysis: The Browns signed Patterson to the practice squad earlier in the week with the intent for him to fill in for Dustin Hopkins (hamstring). Cleveland clinched a spot in the postseason with the win and may not want to rush Hopkins, who not only stabilized a shaky kicking game but also was critical in several wins. Patterson's lone field goal was a 33-yarder that made it a three-score game late in the fourth quarter.

  • Kicking for Cleveland on Thursday

    The Browns elevated Patterson from their practice squad ahead of Thursday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: With Dustin Hopkins ruled out for the contest due to a hamstring issue, Patterson will handle the Browns' kicking duties in Week 17. Prior to catching on with Cleveland, Patterson connected on 15 of his 17 field-goal attempts and 35 of his 37 extra-point tries in 13 games with the Lions.

  • Headed to Cleveland

    The Browns signed Patterson to their practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: Patterson will head to Cleveland to provide an insurance option for Dustin Hopkins, who injured his hamstring during Sunday's win versus the Texans. Patterson converted on 15 of his 17 field-goal attempts in 13 games for the Lions this season and could start against the Jets on Thursday if Hopkins is unable to suit up.

  • Cut loose by Lions

    The Lions waived Patterson on Tuesday.

    Analysis: For each of the Lions' first 13 games of the season, Patterson served as the team's placekicker, connecting on 15 of 17 field-goal attempts and 35 of 37 point-after tries. The prospect of switching to Michael Badgley was there all along after he joined the practice squad following cut-down day back in August, and Detroit finally made the move this past Saturday against the Broncos, keeping him active and making Patterson inactive. With Patterson now off the roster, he'll be subject to waivers…read more

  • Loses job as kicker

    Patterson (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's Week 15 contest against the Broncos.

    Analysis: After Patterson missed his second extra-point attempt in three weeks last Sunday in a loss to the Bears, Detroit signed veteran kicker Michael Badgley to the active roster. The team will turn to Badgley against Denver on Saturday night while Patterson will be inactive. It's unclear if the move is permanent -- aside from the two recent extra-point misses, Patterson has been mostly fine this season, going 15-for-17 on field-goal tries and making his previous 35 extra-point attempts.

  • Misses extra point

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal and missed one of his two extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Patterson has now scored three points or fewer in three of his last four outings. That leaves the kicker with 80 points through 13 contests this term.

  • Bounces back

    Patterson converted two of two field-goal attempts and all three PATs during Sunday's win over the Saints.

    Analysis: This is a respectable statistical bounce-back effort after Patterson hit rock bottom in Week 12. Through 12 games, the Memphis product has now seen multiple field-goal attempts six times but none at all in five of the other contests. While the floor is non-existent, Patterson could again be a worthwhile roll of the dice in a road matchup in Week 14 against a Bears defense allowing the sixth-most points per game (24.7) this season.

  • Slump continues

    Patterson missed his only PAT during Thursday's 29-22 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: This is a new low for Patterson after attempting zero field goals last week against Chicago as well. However, he is hardly to blame for quarterback Jared Goff losing three fumbles and leading the offense to one conversion on six fourth-down plays. The entire Lions offense will look to get back on track in Week 13 against the Saints.

  • Held without field-goal attempt

    Patterson converted three of three PATs during Sunday's 31-26 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Detroit did not attempt a field goal for the fourth time in 10 games this year. Making matters worse for Patterson's production was the Lions' decision to go for a two-point conversion after one of the team's four touchdowns, as Detroit otherwise scored on a safety to reach 31 points. Just a few weeks removed from attempting five field goals against the Raiders, Patterson is entering Week 12 as a high-upside, low-floor fantasy option.

  • Another productive outing

    Patterson converted both of his field-goal attempts and five of five PATs during Sunday's 41-38 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: While his two field-goal tries are a far cry from the five he saw in Week 8, Patterson remained busy coming out of the bye. However, despite the recent production, Detroit still sits 28th in the league in field-goal attempts per game despite ranking top-six in points per game (26.8), yards per game (406.4), and yards per play (5.9). The hope for Patterson is that his association with a high-powered offense -- that is now fully healthy after the return of David Montgomery -- will lead the…read more

  • Busy day

    Patterson converted four of five field-goal attempts and both of his PATs during Monday's 26-14 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: After giving fantasy managers nothing last week, Patterson saw as many field goal attempts as he had the previous four weeks. He ultimately nailed a quartet of kicks ranging from 31 to 52 yards only to miss his final attempt from 26 yards out. While Patterson didn't maximize his output, it was nice to see his upside as a fantasy asset within a productive Lions offense. He will look to stay productive once Detroit returns from a Week 9 bye to take on a weak Chargers defense.

  • Blanked by Ravens

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal or an extra point during Sunday's 38-6 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Patterson had not attempted fewer than two PATs in any game before Sunday's rock-bottom production. Entering halftime with 258 fewer yards of total offense than Baltimore, Detroit did Patterson no favors in getting opportunities to put up points. However, the Lions had been rolling all season up until this point, and the offensive unit still ranks eighth in scoring and fourth in total yards per game. Patterson will look to bounce back on his home turf in Week 8 against Las Vegas.

  • Misses one kick

    Patterson missed one of his three field-goal attempts and made both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-6 win over the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Patterson converted from 30 yards on his first field goal before missing wide right from 52 yards on his second. He rallied with a 36-yarder in the fourth, however, bringing his season point total to 42 through six outings.

  • No field-goal attempts again

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal but converted six of six PATs during Sunday's 42-24 win over Carolina.

    Analysis: Detroit found the end zone on six of eight drives, and this offensive efficiency yet against cost Patterson's fantasy investors. Through five games, the Memphis product has attempted just five field goals without a single try from beyond 38 yards. While most kickers attached to this Lions offense would theoretically have significant fantasy potential, the opportunities haven't been there for Patterson thus far into the 2023 campaign. Up next is a Week 6 matchup with Tampa Bay.

  • Converts two more field goals

    Patterson converted both of his field-goal attempts and four of four PATs during Thursday's 34-20 win over the Packers.

    Analysis: While the Detroit offense put up four touchdowns for the second time in four games, Patterson at least did more than kick extra points in this contest thanks to a pair of sub-40-yard field-goal attempts. After entering the game tied for 27th in field-goal tries through three weeks, back-to-back showings with multiple attempts has Patterson's fantasy value trending in the right direction. Up next is a Week 5 matchup with a Carolina team that allowed the eighth-most points through three games.

  • Attempts multiple field goals

    Patterson converted both field-goal attempts and both of his PATs during Sunday's 20-6 win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: A drop in red-zone efficiency was inevitable for a Lions offense that racked up seven touchdowns over the first two weeks. This benefited Patterson's investors after the kicker received just one attempt in those previous contests, though his production was still a couple of steps below what some other kickers around the league have been putting up. Next for Patterson is a road trip to Lambeau Field on a short week to play a Packers defense that has allowed the 12th-fewest points thus far into…read more

  • Just one field-goal attempt

    Patterson converted his only field-goal attempt and four of four PATs during Sunday's 37-31 overtime loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: Detroit's continued success with finding the end zone upon getting into enemy territory again limited Patterson's output. However, this week the kicker's stats were at least buoyed by four extra points, and it is a positive he seems to be attached to a relatively fast-paced and efficient offense that ranks fourth in offensive yards per play (5.9) and 11th in offensive plays per game (67.0) through two weeks. Better days should be ahead for Patterson as the Lions enter a Week 3 matchup with the…read more

  • Minimal output

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal but converted all three PAT tries during Thursday's 21-20 win over Kansas City.

    Analysis: Detroit was relatively disappointing on offense given the standard it set last season. Patterson's output consequently suffered, as five drives ended in punts. Making matters worse for Patterson's fantasy output is that the Lions were able to punch in two touchdowns during two of the times they got into scoring position before fumbling the ball away on the third. Brighter days should be ahead for Patterson in advance of a Week 2 home game indoors at Ford Field.

  • General manager confident in him

    Patterson has earned the starting kicker role for the Lions in 2023, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.

    Analysis: Patterson beat out Michael Badgley for the first shot at being Detroit's kicker this season, and general manager Brad Holmes said Friday that the 23-year-old has "been pretty good" and that he "feels good" about the team's decision. Patterson went 30-for-35 on field-goal attempts over 17 games as the Jaguars' kicker in 2022.

  • Flipped to Detroit for late pick

    The Lions acquired Patterson from the Jaguars in exchange for a conditional 2026 seventh-round pick Thursday, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports.

    Analysis: It was initially reported that Patterson was going to be waived by the Jaguars after they signed Brandon McManus on Thursday, but Detroit swooped in late and kept Patterson from hitting the open market. Patterson went 30-of-35 on field goals last season and 36-of-37 on extra points. He kicked for the Lions in 2021 for seven games, making 13 of 14 field goals in that span.

    Patterson signed his contract tender with the Jaguars on Thursday, Demetrius Harvey of the Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Patterson, who had been an exclusive rights free agent, is thus in a position to reprise his role as Jacksonville's kicker in 2023, with James McCourt currently providing depth at the position. In his first year with the Jaguars last season, the 23-year-old Patterson made 30 of his 35 field-goal attempts and 36 of his 37 extra-point tries.

  • Solid season for Jacksonville

    Patterson went 30-for-35 on field-goal attempts and 36-for-37 on PATs during the 2022 regular season.

    Analysis: The 23-year-old was also perfect across the Jaguars' two playoff games, making three field goals and four extra points. Patterson debuted with seven appearances for Detroit in 2021, and he was solid as Jacksonville's kicker this season, going 18-for-19 on kicks inside 40 yards. James McCourt inked a reserve/future contract to provide some competition, but Patterson is an exclusive rights free agent in 2023, and there's a decent chance the team wants him back.

    Patterson made a 36-yard field goal as time expired to give the Jaguars a 31-30 win over the Chargers in the wild-card round. He also made both of his extra-point tries.

    Analysis: One day after sitting out the Jaguars' first practice session of the week due to the right knee injury, Patterson was able to take full reps, clearing up any concern about his health.

    Patterson (knee) was spotted practicing Wednesday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Patterson didn't practice Tuesday, but his return to the field Wednesday bodes well for his chances of being able to handle kicking duties in Saturday's wild-card game against the Chargers. If Patterson can't get cleared to kick this weekend, the Jaguars will likely elevate James McCourt from the practice squad to replace him.

    Analysis: Patterson converted both of his extra-point tries in addition to field-goal attempts of 26 and 36 yards in last weekend's AFC South-clinching win over the Titans, but the kicker might have picked up the knee injury at some point along the way. His absence from practice to begin the week suddenly puts his status in question for Saturday's wild-card game against the Chargers.

    Patterson made one of three field-goal attempts and converted both PATs during Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Patterson recovered a successful onside kick to open the game but missed kicks wide left from 51 and 41 yards during the second quarter to sour his day. The 23-year-old had missed only one field goal through the first eight games of the campaign, but he's 3-for-6 across the past two games.

  • Goes 2-for-3 in win versus Raiders

    Patterson converted on two of his three field-goal attempts and all three of his point-after tries during Jacksonville's 27-20 win versus Las Vegas on Sunday.

    Analysis: Patterson made a 44-yarder to cut a Raiders lead to 10 points just before halftime, and given two opportunities to put the Jaguars up by a touchdown late in the fourth quarter, he made a 48-yarder on his second such try. The NFL sophomore could have had a bigger day, but he pushed his first of those two chances into the right upright with just over three minutes remaining in the game. It was still a solid showing for fantasy managers though, and he has still connected on a healthy 86.7 percent…read more

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal and made all three extra-point attempts during Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Patterson made at least one field goal in each of the first three games of the season, but he was limited to extra-point attempts Sunday with Jacksonville's offense scuffling in the rainy conditions.

  • Lands with Jacksonville

    The Jaguars claimed Patterson off waivers from the Lions on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Patterson re-signed with the Lions in late April after he served as Detroit's kicker for seven games in 2021, but he was unable to beat out Austin Seibert for a roster spot during the preseason. Patterson quickly found a new home in Jacksonville and appears in line to be the Jaguars top place kicker after the team waived recently acquired Jake Verity and James McCourt to open up roster spots for several waiver claims.

  • Part of Tuesday's roster cuts

    The Lions waived Patterson on Tuesday.

    Analysis: Patterson signed with the Lions in late April after he served as Detroit's kicker over seven games in 2021. However, he was unable to beat out Austin Seibert for a roster spot during the preseason.

  • Re-signs with Lions

    Patterson signed a one-year deal with the Lions on Tuesday, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Patterson was an exclusive rights free agent, who spent time with the Vikings and Patriots before finding a home with the Lions in his rookie season. The 22-year-old served as Detroit's kicker for seven games, making 13 of 14 field goal attempts and all 16 of his extra-point attempts. With Austin Seibert (hip) and Aldrick Rosas still on the Lions' roster, Patterson will still have to earn the starting job next season.

  • Ends season on high note

    Patterson converted all three of his field-goal attempts and all four of his PATs during Sunday's 37-30 win over Green Bay.

    Analysis: Patterson will thus finish his rookie campaign having made 100 percent of his field goals from within 50 yards and 100 percent of his PATs. While the Lions didn't ask him to take many long field goals this season and Patterson missed his only attempt from beyond 50 yards, there's no doubting that the Memphis product brought stability to Detroit's kicking game down the stretch after the team struggled to replace Matt Prater early on. With Patterson now set to be an exclusive-rights free agent at…read more

  • Misses lone field-goal attempt

    Patterson missed his lone field-goal attempt but made three of three PATs during Sunday's 51-29 loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: Patterson's one chance at avoiding a dud performance fell short of the crossbar on a 55-yard attempt at the end of the first half. The only opportunities he otherwise saw came on extra points, and he was even robbed of one of those when the Lions went for two at one point. While Patterson has flexed some interesting upside in recent weeks, the Lions offense could remain particularly untrustworthy in Week 18 against Green Bay if starting QB Jared Goff (knee) remains sidelined.

  • Another solid stat line

    Patterson converted three of three field-goal attempts and his lone PAT during Sunday's 20-16 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: The Lions' late-season revival continues to pave the way for surprisingly strong Patterson stat lines. Now having three FGA in three of the past four games while notching at least one PAT in each of them, few kickers have outscored the Memphis product in recent weeks. While it may seem hard to trust a Detroit team that lost or tied each of its first 11 games of the year, the offense seems to have turned a corner with head coach Dan Campbell calling plays, and Patterson could continue to benefit…read more

  • Big day against Arizona

    Patterson converted three of three field-goal attempts and three of three PATs during Sunday's 30-12 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: A wounded Lions team found an unbelievable amount of success against a Cardinals team that entered the week fourth in scoring defense. Patterson was a direct beneficiary and he did well to convert two kicks from 45 yards out and beyond. However, with Jared Goff (COVID-19) uncertain to play in Week 16 against Atlanta, Detroit may be hard-pressed to build on this performance.

  • One FGA against Denver

    Patterson converted his only field goal attempt and PAT during Sunday's loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: With none of D'Andre Swift (shoulder), T.J. Hockenson (hand) or Jamaal Williams (COVID-19) available, the Lions offense had immense trouble moving the ball and Patterson subsequently had minimal opportunities to produce. However, no fantasy managers should have been starting Patterson anyway. That should remain the case in Week 15 against Arizona even if Detroit gets closer to full health.

  • Three field goals in victory

    Patterson made three of three field-goal attempts and two of two PATs during Sunday's 29-27 win over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Detroit found a surprisingly amount of success against a decent Vikings defense en route to the team's first win of the season. Patterson was one of the biggest beneficiaries, and he did well to convert on each of his kicks, the longest of which came from 49 yards out. While Patterson is now locked in as the top kicker in Detroit with Austin Seibert (hip) on injured reserve, it will remain a challenge to bet on the Detroit offense down the stretch. Despite the recent success, Patterson will be…read more

    Patterson did not attempt a field goal but made both his extra-point tries in Week 12's 16-14 loss to the Bears.

  • Set to kick Thursday in NFL debut

    Patterson is expected to serve as the Lions' kicker Thursday against the Bears after Aldrick Rosas wasn't elevated from the practice squad Wednesday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Analysis: Patterson was signed off the Patriots' practice squad Nov. 16, but he was inactive for the Lions' loss to the Browns in Week 11 while Rosas handled kicking duties. Despite Rosas hitting his only field-goal attempt in that game, he reverted to the practice squad following the contest and will stay there for now. Rosa's reversion leaves Patterson as the only kicker on the active roster, so he'll be in line to make his NFL debut Week 12.

  • Sitting Sunday

    Patterson (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday at Cleveland.

    Analysis: The Lions placed Austin Seibert (hip) on injured reserve prior to Week 10, when Ryan Santoso ended up handling placekicking duties for last Sunday's tie at Pittsburgh. On Tuesday, Detroit signed Patterson off the practice squad to compete with Santoso, but the latter will be the team's kicker yet again Week 11.

  • Signed by Detroit

    The Lions signed Patterson to their active roster off the Patriots' practice squad Tuesday.

    Analysis: With Austin Seibert (hip) on injured reserve, Ryan Santoso was promoted from the practice squad for Week 10, but he missed a PAT that would've likely ended the game in regulation, and he missed a potential game-winning 48-yard field goal in overtime. Santoso was released by the Lions on Tuesday, making room for Patterson to join the active roster. Patterson will likely operate as the primary place kicker in Week 11.
