Brandon McManus - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Back in action in Week 12 McManus is active for Sunday's contest versus the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact McManus completed a full week of practice during Week 12 prep for the first time since before Green Bay's Week 5 bye. A right quadriceps injury sidelined him Weeks 6, 7 and 11, but his ability to handle every rep Wednesday through Friday indicates he likely is good to go moving forward. In seven games this season, McManus has struck true on just 11 of 17 field-goal attempts and 16 of 17 point-after tries.

Full practice Wednesday McManus (right quadriceps) practiced fully Wednesday.

Impact After kicking in last Friday's practice, McManus showed up at team facilities Saturday with tightness in his right quad, which spurred the Packers to add him to the injury report as doubtful for this past Sunday's game at the Giants. He eventually was inactive and ceded placekicking duties to Lucas Havrisik, the latter of whom made one of three point-after tries without attempting a field goal. With McManus seemingly in good health as Green Bay begins Week 12 prep, he's poised to return to action Sunday against the Vikings, but how he feels as the week goes on likely will be the determining factor.

Inactive Sunday, as expected McManus (right quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game at the Giants, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact McManus avoided the Packers' Week 11 injury report entirely for the first time since before the team's Week 5 bye until he was added to it Saturday as doubtful due to a lingering right quadriceps issue. According to Jason Wilde of Channel3000.com, McManus kicked during Friday's practice and then reported tightness in the quad when he showed up at Green Bay's facility Saturday, prompting the aforementioned move. Now that McManus is confirmed to be unavailable Sunday, he'll yield his duties to Lucas Havrisik, and now there's the question of if the former will miss time beyond this weekend.

NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • PACKERS.COM

Now doubtful for Sunday The Packers added McManus to their Week 11 injury report Saturday, listing him as doubtful for Sunday's game at the Giants due to a right quadriceps issue.

Impact It's the same injury that sidelined McManus in Weeks 6 and 7 and that he also contended with in advance of Green Bay's previous three contests, when he went a combined 4-for-8 on field-goal attempts and connected on all five point-after tries. He wasn't included on the team's Week 11 practice report until Saturday and now appears unlikely to resume placekicking duties Sunday. McManus' status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, with Lucas Havrisik set to step in for him for a third game this season.

4 Takeaways From the Eagles’ Win Over the Packers on Monday Night Football

Misses desperation kick during MNF McManus missed his only field-goal attempt and made his only PAT in Monday night's 10-7 loss to the Eagles.

Impact McManus had to wait until the final seconds of the game to attempt a field goal, shanking a 64-yarder after a poor snap as time expired in regulation. The kicker has now missed at least one field goal in three straight contests, though Monday's miss isn't overly concerning. McManus has now gone 11-for-17 on field-goal tries, including 2-for-4 from 50-plus yards, while making 16 of 17 PATs over seven games this year.

Impact McManus logged a full practice Thursday for the first time since he tweaked his right quad during Week 6 prep, which initially led to back-to-back absences. He then was able to kick Weeks 8 and 9, but the results (4-for-7 FGAs, 4-for-4 PATs) were mixed during those contests. Even before suffering the injury, McManus was 7-for-9 on field-goal attempts and 11-for-12 on extra points, so his reliability still is in question. Having said that, he'll get the nod over Lucas Havrisik for a third straight game Monday.

Logs full practice Thursday McManus (right quadriceps) was a full practice participant Thursday.

Impact Three days removed from coach Matt LaFleur giving McManus a vote of confidence as the Packers' placekicker, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, McManus had no practice limitations for the first time since tweaking his right quad during Week 6 prep. Since sitting out Weeks 6 and 7, McManus hasn't exactly been crisp, making four of seven field-goal attempts and all four point-after tries. The Packers still have two kickers on their active roster -- also, Lucas Havrisik -- but it appears McManus will log a third consecutive appearance Monday against the Eagles.
