News: 6 days agoGay connected on all five of his field-goal tries and his lone extra-point attempt in Sunday's 22-19 overtime win over the Ravens.

Spin: Gay was vital to his team's victory in Week 3, connecting on four field goals from 50-plus yards. Most significant were his makes from 53 yards out with just over a minute left in the game to tie it, then again from 53 in overtime to get the win. He also made a third field goal from 53 yards, another from 54, and one from 31, in his perfect 5-for-5 performance. Next up for Gay is a Week 4 matchup against his former team, the Rams.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Gay became one of the league's highest-paid kickers during the offseason, signing with the Colts after three seasons with the Rams. It was a well deserved pay raise for one of the NFL's best kickers. Gay nailed 28-of-30 field goals (93.3%) in 2022 and, including the playoffs, is 86-of-94 (91.5%) since 2020. Both of those rates are third best in the league. Gay has also been a fantasy star since entering the league in 2019. He was the No. 4-scoring fantasy kicker with Tampa Bay as a rookie before posting the sixth-most points during a seven-game stint with the Rams in 2020. Gay finished fifth in 2021 and hung on for 14th in 2022 despite the Rams' offensive woes. The 29-year-old is a serviceable starting option in fantasy.
