RareMost regular-season FGM, 2024 + 2025 combined
| Kicker | FGM | FGA | FG% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ka'imi Fairbairn | 80 | 90 | 88.9% |
| Cameron Dicker | 77 | 83 | 92.8% |
| Brandon Aubrey | 76 | 89 | 85.4% |

| Wil Lutz | 59 | 66 | 89.4% |
Across the 2024 and 2025 regular seasons, no kicker in the NFL has more field goals made than Fairbairn's 80. He's connected on 88.9% of 90 attempts, leading Aubrey (76) and ahead of Dicker (77) — and his 2025 alone produced 44 FGM in 17 games, the most by any kicker this season.
The Texans live on field goals: their offense ranks middle-pack in red-zone TD rate, and Fairbairn's volume is part of how Houston wins close. 44 makes in one season is a franchise record and the most by any AFC kicker in 2025.
Three-year ramp: 27 → 36 → 44 FGM. Each year more attempts, each year more makes.

FGs made per season — the late-career surge
| Season | FGM |
|---|---|
| 2017 | 20 |
| 2018 | 37 |
| 2019 | 22 |
| 2020 | 27 |
| 2021 | 15 |
| 2022 | 29 |
| 2023 | 27 |
| 2024 | 36 |
| 2025 | 44 |
His 2023 was the single-best accuracy season any Texans kicker has had (96.4%) — 27-of-28. Then the offense around him scaled. 2024 doubled his 2021 attempt count, and 2025's 44 makes is the single-season peak of his career.
The 9th-year breakout came with a 6-point accuracy jump (85.7% → 91.7%) and a long of 57 — at age 31, in his 9th NFL season.
95.2% from 40-49 over the last two years — better than league average from anywhere.
SplitFairbairn 2024-2025 FGs by distance
| Distance | FGM | FGA | FG% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0-39 | 38 | 40 | 95.0% |
| 40-49 | 20 | 21 | 95.2% |
| 50-59 | 22 | 29 | 75.9% |
The accuracy profile across his last two seasons is almost flat through the first two buckets — 95.0% under 40, 95.2% from 40-49. League-average from 40-49 has hovered around 82-85% the last few seasons; Fairbairn's mark is 10+ points above it.
The 50+ tier is where his curve does drop: 22-of-29 from 50-59 (75.9%) is solid but not elite, and Houston has leaned on him for 29 attempts from that range over two years.

257 career FGs made — the all-time Texans franchise record holder.
MilestoneIn 9 regular seasons as Houston's kicker, Fairbairn has made 257 of 293 career field goals (87.7%) — and added 12 of 16 in the postseason. He's the longest-tenured kicker in franchise history, and his 257 career FGM is the most by any Texans kicker by a comfortable margin.
The 2018 breakout (37 FGM, second-best of his career) led the AFC at the time. The 2025 season (44 FGM) lapped it. Three different seasons of 35+ FGM is matched by very few active kickers.
From the league's most accurate kicker in 2023 (96.4%) to its most prolific in 2025.
ComparisonIn 2023 he finished 27-of-28, a 96.4% conversion rate — among the highest single-season marks ever recorded by a Texans kicker. He then turned the dial the other way: 2025's 44 FGM on 48 attempts was a volume-leading season.
The combined picture: 80 FGM over 2024-25 leads the NFL, and his 91.7% accuracy in 2025 ranks top-3 among all kickers with 35+ attempts. Few kickers age into both an accuracy peak and a volume peak in the same window of their career — Fairbairn has done it back-to-back.
