Top Ka'imi Fairbairn News

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Another double-digit week

    Fairbairn converted all three field-goal attempts and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 30-6 win over Pittsburgh in Week 4.

    That makes two consecutive weeks of double-digit scoring for Fairbairn, who scored 13 points in Week 3's win over the Jaguars. Houston's offense has showed spunk the last two weeks, scoring 67 points, which has made Fairbairn a legitimate fantasy asset. The 29-year-old has connected on 11-of-12 field-goal attempts and 9-of-9 extra-point kicks, and Fairbairn's 42 points ranks fourth among kickers.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Produces handsomely in win

    Fairbairn converted all three field-goal attempts and all four extra-point kicks in Sunday's 37-17 win over Jacksonville in Week 3.

    After a couple of serviceable weeks, Fairbairn broke out in Week 3 with 13 points, his first double-digit effort of the season. He ranks third among kickers in scoring with 30 points and is tied for third with nine field-goal attempts over the first three weeks.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Misses field goal in loss

    Fairbairn converted two of three field-goal attempts and both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 31-20 loss to the Colts in Week 2.

    Fairbairn made a couple of chip shots from 29 and 36 yards but was wide left from 51 yards with just over two minutes left in the game. Had he made the kick, Houston would have been down by one score with a chance to tie the game late. Still, it's hard to lay any blame on Fairbairn's leg. The defense was carved up by Gardner Minshew after Anthony Richardson ran for two touchdowns, before he was removed from the game due to a concussion. And the offense didn't get in gear until the fourth quarter. Fairbairn has three field-goal attempts in each of the first two contests.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Nails three field goals

    Fairbairn converted three of three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 25-9 loss to the Ravens.

    Fairbairn provided all the offense Houston could muster Sunday. Two of his three kicks came on drives that stalled in the red zone, which could be a feature of the Texans' offense during yet another rebuilding season. Fairbairn was successful on 94 percent of his attempts in 2022 and could be a valuable asset if given enough chances for field goals.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: No more competition

    After the Texans waived kicker Jake Bates, Fairbairn has no competition for the job.

    The decision to bring Bates into the mix looks like it was done to give Fairbairn some rest early in camp and for some good PR, as Bates is a local product from the Houston suburbs (Tomball). Fairbairn, who did not play in lat week's preseason opener against the Patriots, is expected to be the lone kicker Saturday against the Dolphins.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Extends perfection in finale

    Fairbairn made his lone field-goal attempt and all three extra-point kicks in Sunday's 32-31 win over Indianapolis in Week 18.

    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 tries 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.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Logs lone points in loss

    Fairbairn converted his lone field-goal attempt in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Jacksonville in Week 17.

    Fairbairn's 56-yard field goal in the third quarter prevented Houston from being shut out. The veteran placekicker has bounced back from an injury-marred 2021 to make 93 percent (28 of 30) of his FGAs, including all six from 50 and beyond.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Scores seven points in win

    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.

    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.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Perfect again

    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.

    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.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Double-digit points in loss

    Fairbairn converted all three field-goal attempts and both extra-point kicks in Sunday's 27-23 loss to Dallas in Week 14.

    Fairbairn connected on two kicks from long distance -- 50 and 54 yards -- and another from 43 yards. The 10-point effort was his second double-digit output of the season and came after a week of practice during 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.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Cleared for Week 14

    Fairbairn (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against Dallas.

    Fairbairn logged two straight limited practice sessions to start the week, but he was upgraded to a full participant Friday. The sixth-year kicker has yet to miss a game this season, connecting on 21 of 23 field-goal attempts across 12 appearances.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Expected to play Sunday

    Texans special teams coordinator Frank Ross said Fairbairn (groin) is dealing with soreness but is expected to play Sunday against the Cowboys, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Fairbairn was a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to the right groin injury and had his reps capped again Thursday, but the veteran looks like he'll be ready to kick by the time the weekend arrives. The Texans have yet to bring in any kickers for a workout and don't currently carry one on their practice squad, which supports the notion that Fairbairn's availability isn't much of a question mark, at least for the time being.

  • Texans' Ka'imi Fairbairn: Limited with groin injury

    Fairbairn was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to a right groin injury.

    Fairbairn made both of his field-goal attempts in the Texans' Week 13 loss to Cleveland, but he appears to have picked up a groin injury along the way. He'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice session before Houston needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup with Dallas.
