13 points in win Slye connected on 4-of-5 field-goal attempts while going 1-for-2 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Bears.

Impact Slye missed his first field-goal attempt out of the gates from 48 yards out, but went on to hit his next four tries, including a game high 52-yard make. The 25-year-old has performed well in place of the injured Robbie Gould (groin), going 7-for-8 on field-goal attempts in his three games with San Francisco. The latter was reportedly working out on the field prior to Sunday's win, which could spell the end of Slye's tenure with the 49ers if the club activates the reliable kicker off of IR this week.

Six points on SNF Slye went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts, but missed his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 30-18 loss to the Colts.

Impact Slye had to deal with rough weather in Santa Clara on Sunday, as winds were swirling and the rain was continuous throughout the entire contest. While the 25-year-old missed an extra point, he did manage to hit an impressive 56-yard field goal in the poor conditions. Robbie Gould (groin) will be forced to miss at least one more contest, so Slye is lined up to get another start against the Bears next Sunday.

Solid debut in SF Slye connected from 47 yards out and converted his lone extra-point attempt in Sunday's 17-10 loss to Arizona.

Impact Slye took over for Robbie Gould (groin), who was placed on IR last week. The 25-year-old went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts with Houston prior to being scooped up by San Francisco. Slye should continue to start for at least two more games while Gould is on the mend, starting with a matchup against the Colts in Week 7 following the team's bye.

Time long overdue for Panthers to invest in offensive line

Ends up in Bay Area The 49ers signed Slye on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact With kicker Robbie Gould (groin) set to miss multiple weeks, Slye will get the first shot to replace him after going through a workout Tuesday along with Michael Badgley and Brett Maher, according to Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston. Slye filled in for Ka'imi Fairbairn in Houston for the first three games of the current campaign, making four of five field-goal attempts and seven of eight point-after tries.

Dropped by Houston The Texans waived Slye on Thursday.

Impact After Houston elevated Slye from its practice squad ahead of both of its first two games to handle kicking duties, the 25-year-old was officially signed to the 53-man roster prior to last week's loss to the Panthers. Though he performed capably by connecting on 11 of his 13 kicks for Houston, Slye will ultimately lose hold of the job with top kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (leg) on track to return from injured reserve for the Texans' Week 4 matchup with Buffalo. Slye shouldn't have much trouble finding an opportunity with Houston's or another organization's practice squad, if he isn't immediately claimed off waivers or signed to a 53-man roster when he clears waivers.

Misses one kick Slye made his lone field-goal attempt and miss his only PAT during Thursday's 24-9 loss to the Panthers.

Impact The Texans unsurprisingly struggled to move the ball with rookie third-round Davis Mills helming the offense, and Slye's only field-goal opportunity came from 53 yards during the fourth quarter, which he converted. The 25-year-old is 4-for-5 on field goals and 7-for-8 on extra points through the first three games of the season, but Kai'mi Fairbairn (leg) is progressing is his recovery and is eligible to be activated from injured reserve, so the clock is ticking on Slye's time as Houston's kicker.

Thursday Night Football Top Moments: Carolina Panthers rout Houston Texans

Signed to Houston's roster The Texans signed Slye to their 53-man roster ahead of Thursday's game against the Panthers.

Impact Houston elevated Slye to the 53-man roster for the third time this season Wednesday, but his signing Thursday suggests he won't be immediately sent back to the practice squad following the matchup with Carolina. Even so, whether Slye remains Houston's kicker for the Week 4 game in Buffalo may hinge on the health of Ka'imi Fairbairn (leg). After opening the season on injured reserve, Fairbairn is first eligible to return Week 4, though it's unclear if he's made enough progress in his recovery at this point to take back kicking duties for Houston.

Cutting Joey Slye didn't fix the Panthers' kicking problems, but it did help the Texans It’s fair to ask whether the Panthers should have held onto Joey Slye just a little longer — or at least until they found a better option.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2021 • CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.COM

Set to kick for Houston in Week 3 The Texans elevated Slye from the practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Slye is set for a third straight turn as Houston's placekicker, as Ka'imi Fairbairn won't be eligible to come off injured reserve until Week 4 at the earliest. In last weekend's loss to Cleveland, the Texans only afforded Slye one field-goal attempt, which he missed. Now, with rookie Davis Mills set to helm Houston's offense Thursday against the Panthers, Slye could have limited scoring opportunities once again.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Reverts to practice squad Slye reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Slye missed his only field-goal attempt in Sunday's loss to the Browns. However, he did convert all three of his extra-point attempts. He has been replacing Ka'imi Fairbairn (leg) has Houston's placement kicker.

Misses late FGA Slye missed his lone field-goal attempt and went three-for-three on extra-point kicks in Sunday's 31-21 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Slye was wide left from 41 yards out with just over two minutes left, negating the Texans' attempted comeback from a 10-point deficit. It was his first miss in five tries this season. Slye's expected to be Houston's placekicker until Ka'imi Fairbairn (leg) is ready and can be reinstated from injured reserve.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Set to be top kicker Slye was elevated from Houston's practice squad Saturday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Slye drilled all three of his attempts in the season opener and he'll be slated to be the top kicker once more with Ka'imi Fairbairn (leg) still sidelined. Slye will likely officially join the active roster next week, as he's now out of practice squad elevations.

Reverts back to practice squad Slye reverted back to the Texans' practice squad Monday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Slye connected on all three of his field goals and all four of his extra points during Sunday's 37-21 win over Jacksonville. His big day couldn't entice the Texans to keep him around as they will likely activate Ka'imi Fairbairn (leg) this week.
