Boswell converted both of his field-goal attempts while making all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 28-14 win over the Browns on Sunday.
What it means:
Boswell had missed at least one field-goal attempt in three of his four appearances leading up to Sunday's regular-season finale, but he was perfect against Cleveland to help the Steelers finish the year with a winning record. The 31-year-old missed five games in 2022 due to his groin injury, but he appeared in 12 matchups and made 20 of 28 field-goal attempts while converting all 18 of his extra-point tries. Boswell made 92.3 percent of his field-goal attempts over the three seasons prior to 2022 and re-signed with the Steelers on a four-year deal in August of 2022, so he'll likely continue to serve as Pittsburgh's kicker next year despite his 71.4 percent field-goal conversion rate this season.
Boswell converted three of four field-goal attempts while making his lone extra-point try during the Steelers' 16-13 win over Baltimore on Sunday.
What it means:
Boswell had a 48-yard field-goal attempt hit the right upright late in the second quarter Sunday, but he managed to make three total field goals, including a 51-yarder in the third quarter. Although he matched his highest total of field goals made in a single game this season, he's now missed at least one field-goal attempt in three of his four appearances since returning from a groin injury. During those four games, he's made six of 10 field-goal attempts while converting all seven of his extra-point tries.
Boswell converted two of four field-goal attempts while making his lone extra-point try during the Steelers' 13-10 win over Las Vegas on Saturday.
What it means:
Boswell was perfect on four kicks in Week 15, but he was kicking in cold and windy conditions during Saturday's matchup against the Raiders. He missed a 43-yard attempt wide left in the second quarter and missed a 52-yarder wide left in the third. However, he did just enough to lead Pittsburgh to the narrow Week 16 win.
Boswell converted his lone field-goal attempt while making all three of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 24-16 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
What it means:
Boswell's lone field-goal attempt was blocked last week, but he drilled a 50-yarder in the fourth quarter Sunday to put the Steelers up by two scores late in the game. Over his two appearances since returning from injury, he's made one of two field-goal attempts while converting all five of his extra-point tries.
Boswell missed his lone field-goal attempt while making both of his extra-point tries during the Steelers' 16-14 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
What it means:
Boswell returned to the field Sunday after missing the last five games due to a groin injury, but he had his lone field-goal attempt blocked during the narrow loss to Baltimore. However, it was encouraging to see him convert both of his extra-point tries. Over eight appearances this year, the 31-year-old has converted 12 of 17 field-goal attempts while making all 11 of his extra-point tries.
Boswell (groin) was activated off injured reserve and will start Sunday against the Bengals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
What it means:
Boswell had been sidelined since Week 8 due to a groin injury, but the veteran will once again return to the starting lineup after the Steelers opted to release nominal starter Matthew Wright. Wright had been a surprisingly reliable fantasy option converting 12 of his 14 field-goal attempts during that stretch, and it's possible Boswell could post similar figures alongside an offense that has struggled to consistently score touchdowns.
