2026 NFL 40-49 Yard Field Goals Leaders

Field goals from 40 to 49 yards made. This is the range where a kicker's job is decided: long enough to miss, short enough that a miss is costly.

Look at attempts as well as makes, shown under each number. In 2026, Spencer Shrader (6) led NFL kickers in 40-49 yard field goals, ahead of Matt Gay (6) and Chad Ryland (5). 32 kickers qualify. This season is in progress (through Week 7), so the numbers change each week.
