AUSTIN SEIBERT NEWS

Sidelined due to groin injury Seibert didn't practice Wednesday due to a groin injury.

Impact Seibert missed 48-yard and 56-yard field-goal attempts during the Lions' Week 3 loss to Minnesota, but it's unclear if he was dealing with his current groin injury during the contest. His absence Wednesday is certainly concerning, but he'll have two more opportunities to return to practice before the team has to make a decision on his status for Week 4.

Campbell frustrated by strategical error in Lions' loss

Dan Campbell still hadn’t forgiven himself 24 hours later for the Detroit Lions’ 28-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings

SEPTEMBER 26, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Misses two from long range Seibert converted one of three field-goal attempts and three of three PATs during Sunday's 28-24 loss to Minnesota.

Impact Seibert had plenty of chances to put together a strong fantasy outing, but he missed a 48-yard try early on before pushing wide a 56-yard field-goal attempt late in the fourth quarter. With that said, the Lions offense remained productive for a third straight week, and it bodes well for Seibert's future prospects that Detroit is consistently getting into scoring position. Up next is a Week 4 home matchup against Seattle within the indoor confines of Ford Field.

Totals 10 points Seibert converted two of two targets and four of four PATs during Sunday's 36-27 win over Washington.

Impact Seibert again handled plenty of PATs as Detroit's offense stayed hot, but this time he also got a couple of field-goal attempts to buoy his fantasy output. Given the unlikelihood that the Lions will maintain the red-zone efficiency they've displayed through the first two weeks of the season, Seibert could be in for big fantasy days on occasions when Detroit falters in that area. Up next is a Week 3 road matchup in the indoor confines of Minnesota's U.S. Bank Stadium.

After 63-yard field goal make, Austin Seibert holding early edge in Lions' kicker battle It might be one of training camp's most under-the-radar competitions, but it remains important for the Lions to find the right kicker.

AUGUST 8, 2022 • DETROITNEWS.COM

Has edge in kicking competition Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Monday that Seibert is a "tick" ahead of Riley Patterson in the kicking battle, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.

Impact A hip injury placed Seibert on injured reserve midway through the 2021 campaign, and the Oklahoma product had to watch as Patterson set the Lions' franchise rookie record for kicking accuracy down the stretch. However, now that he's healthy, it appears the place-kicking gig is Seibert's to lose during training camp. Last season, the fourth-year kicker went 10-for-12 on field-goal attempts and a perfect 5-for-5 on extra-point tries, with his only misses coming from beyond 40 yards.

Working with starters Seibert has been working with the first-team offense during OTAs, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact A hip injury planted Seibert on injured reserve midway through the 2021 season, and the 2019 fifth-round draft pick proceeded to watch as Riley Patterson set the Lions franchise rookie record for kicking accuracy down the stretch. However, it not only appears that Seibert is healthy again, but that he has also been working ahead of Patterson during early offseason practices. However, even though Aldrick Rosas is now out of the picture, a two-man competition for the kicking job in Detroit could last all summer.

Done for '21 season Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Friday that Seibert (hip) won't return from injured reserve this season, Benjamin Raven of MLive.com reports.

Impact Seibert is first eligible to return from IR this weekend against the Vikings after missing the requisite three games with a right hip injury, but since he's not even in condition to resume practicing at this stage, the Lions don't have confidence he'll be able to make it back before Week 18. While Seibert has been sidelined, the Lions have used three kickers in as many games. With Ryan Santoso and Aldrick Rosas having since been moved off the 53-man roster, the job looks like it belongs to Riley Patterson for the time being. The undrafted rookie out of Memphis connected on both of his extra-point attempts last week in his NFL debut in the Lions' 16-14 loss to the Bears.

Moved to IR Seibert (hip) was placed on IR on Saturday.

Impact The Lions promoted Ryan Santoso from the practice squad in a corresponding move. Santoso will fill in for Seibert against the Steelers on Sunday, and he'll likely continue to do so for the remainder of Seibert's absence, which will last a minimum of three weeks.

Ruled out against Pittsburgh Seibert (hip) won't play Sunday against the Steelers, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact Seibert was unable to practice Friday and was subsequently ruled out. The Lions likely will promote Ryan Santoso from the practice squad Friday or Saturday to handle kicking duties this Sunday.

Limited again Thursday Seibert (hip) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.

Impact The kicker was limited for the second consecutive day at practice Thursday, placing some doubt on his availability for Sunday's matchup with the Steelers. Seibert's level of participation at Friday's practice will speak volumes to his ability to play in Week 10.

Misses from 47 yards out Seibert missed his lone field-goal attempt during Sunday's 44-6 loss to the Eagles.

Impact After the Lions put up a solid effort in Week 8 against a solid Rams defense, Detroit took a huge step back against a seemingly poor Eagles defense. On his only opportunity of the day, Seibert missed wide left from 47 yards out. Attached to one of the least reliable offenses in the league, Seibert will remain an unadvisable fantasy option when Detroit returns from its Week 9 bye to take on Pittsburgh in Week 10.

Bounces back strong Seibert converted four-of-four field-goal attempts and his only PAT during Sunday's 28-19 loss to the Rams.

Impact In what was easily his most productive game of the year, Seibert nailed a handful of field goals from between 31- and 47-yards out as the Lions found much more success than expected against the Rams' defense. While his fantasy expectations will remain low as long as he's attached to an offense led by Jared Goff, Seibert at least flashed the upside he can have in a game if everything breaks right.
