Fairbairn made his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 32-31 win over Indianapolis in Week 18.
What it means:
Fairbairn had a strong season while kicking for one of the worst offenses in the league. He finished out the year by making all 31 kicks over the final 11 games and made all six efforts from 50 and beyond. There will be a new coaching staff in 2023, but it shouldn't take much effort to see Fairbairn was not a problem for Houston in 2022. He enters the final year of his contract after successfully converting 29 of 31 field-goal tries.
Fairbairn converted his lone field-goal attempt in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Jacksonville in Week 17.
What it means:
Fairbairn's 56-yard field goal in the third quarter prevented Houston from being shut out. The veteran has bounced back from an injury-marred 2021 to make 93 percent (28 of 30) of his FGAs, including all six from beyond 50 and beyond.
Fairbairn converted two of two field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point kick in Saturday's 19-14 win over the Titans in Week 16.
What it means:
Fairbairn finished off a couple of red-zone trips with chip shots and is a perfect 15-of-15 over the last nine games. He's also made all 21 of his extra-point kicks this season. If Houston can ever fix its offense, Fairbairn could be an elite kicker for fantasy teams.
Fairbairn made his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Chiefs in Week 15.
What it means:
Fairbairn has been perfect the last eight games, converting 13 of 13 FGA and 10 of 10 XPA. He's 16th in kicker scoring with 95 points, but Fairbairn is saddled with one of the league's worst offenses. He's third among qualified kickers, converting 92.6 percent (25 of 27) of his FGA, including five of five from beyond the 50.
Fairbairn converted all three field-goal attempts and both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 27-23 loss to Dallas in Week 14.
What it means:
Fairbairn connected on two kicks from long distance -- 50 and 54 yards -- and another from 43 yards. The 10-point effort was his first double-digit output of the season and came after a week in which he dealt with a groin injury. The six-year veteran is enjoying a bounce-back season, having made 92 percent (24 of 26) of his FGAs.
Fairbairn doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against Dallas.
What it means:
Fairbairn logged back-to-back limited sessions to start the week due to a groin injury, but he was upgraded to a full participant Friday and is good to go for Sunday. The sixth-year kicker has yet to miss a game this season, connecting on 21 of 23 field-goal attempts across 12 appearances.
