2026 NFL Upright and Crossbar Misses Leaders

Kicks that struck the left upright, right upright or crossbar and did not go in, often called doinks. They are near-misses that are counted as misses.

A doink is close to luck in either direction, so treat a high count as a curiosity. In 2026, Chad Ryland (1) led NFL kickers in upright and crossbar misses, ahead of Cairo Santos (1) and Matt Gay (1). 7 kickers qualify. This season is in progress (through Week 7), so the numbers change each week.

Data through Week 7 of the 2026 season, updated October 24, 2026.
