RYAN SUCCOP NEWS

Nails four field goals in loss Succop connected on field-goal attempts of 39, 35, 46 and 25 yards and also made his only extra-point try in the Buccaneers' 20-19 loss to the Bears on Thursday night.

Impact Succop saw plenty of opportunities with the Bears constantly bogging the Buccaneers down on Chicago's side of the field, and he parlayed them into a fruitful fantasy night. The veteran placekicker displayed some accuracy from a respectable distance on the 46-yarder, noteworthy because his only two misses on the season have come from beyond 40 yards. Factoring in his eight-point day (one field goal, five PATs) against the Chargers in Week 4, Succop has made it a rewarding four-day period for his fantasy managers. He'll be poised for another busy day in what could be a wire-to-wire battle against the Packers in a Week 6 home showdown on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Impact The veteran kicker fell just short of a perfect day for the second straight week, but his performance was still very rewarding from a fantasy perspective. Tom Brady's clear acclimation to coach Bruce Arians' offensive scheme is working to the benefit of Succop, who's now had the opportunity to attempt 12 kicks overall in the last two games. The 12-year veteran has 28 points over his first four contests, with the one concern being that both of his missed field goals have come from beyond 40 yards. He'll look to tighten things up further in a Week 5 Thursday night matchup against a solid Bears defense that could force some drives to stall out short of the goal line.

Makes four of five kicks in win Succop made field-goal attempts of 43 and 35 yards and converted two of three extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 28-10 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

Impact Succop's one miss came on a block after the second of Mike Evans' two second-quarter touchdown receptions. Otherwise, the veteran kicker enjoyed another fruitful fantasy day facilitated by an improving Buccaneers offense. Through three games, Succop is 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts of 49 yards or below, 0-for-1 on his only one from beyond 50 yards and 4-for-5 on extra-point tries.

Busy day in Week 2 win Succop converted his only field-goal attempt from 33 yards and drilled all four of his extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 31-17 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Impact The veteran kicker put together an even better performance than in the Week 1 loss to the Saints, accounting for seven points overall in the win. Succop was capped by an efficient Buccaneers offense Sunday in the sense that he only received one field-goal attempt, but he certainly has bright prospects overall on a team with an offense that has as many playmakers as Tampa Bay's.

Nearly perfect in debut Succop drilled a 38-yard field goal attempt, had a 54-yard attempt partly blocked and was successful on both of his extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 34-23 loss to the Saints on...

Impact As those numbers demonstrate, it was a mostly successful Bucs debut for Succop, considering his one misfire wasn't entirely his fault and was from a difficult distance to begin with. Succop brings a solid 11-season track record into Tampa, one that includes better than 85.0 percent accuracy on field goals in four of his last five 16-game campaigns, numbers that were key to him usurping 2019 fifth-round pick Matt Gay for the job late in training camp despite just a brief audition. Succop could be in for an even more productive day in Week 2, as the Bucs draw a matchup against the vulnerable Panthers defense.

Gets kicking job The Buccaneers will waive Matt Gay, leaving Succop as the team's kicker heading into Week 1, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.

Impact The recently signed kicker will thus supplant Gay, with Succop stepping into a pretty solid fantasy context, considering that he'll be working behind a Tampa Bay offense loaded with skilled players and now helmed by QB Tom Brady.

Signs with Tampa Succop is signing with the Buccaneers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact The team is waiving fellow kicker Elliott Fry in a corresponding transaction, setting up a last-minute competition between Succop and Matt Gay. The incumbent missed eight field-goal attempts and five PATs last season, while Succop had two stints on injured reserve with the Titans, going 1-for-6 on field-goal tries in his six games in between. Prior to last season, Succop enjoyed five consecutive campaigns with a field-goal percentage of 83.3 or better, so he could be an upgrade on Gay if last year's knee injury truly is no longer an issue. The Tampa kicker battle carries genuine intrigue for fantasy purposes, as the team's offense has high expectations with Tom Brady now playing quarterback. Succop's one-year contract with the Bucs includes $150,000 guaranteed.
