Tennessee Titans kicker
Josh Lambo will make his season debut as
Randy Bullock (right calf) has been ruled out for the Thursday Night Football contest with the Green Bay Packers in Week 11. Lambo is far from the fantasy radar since he hasn't kicked since September of 2021, and this game figures to be a low-scoring contest with a projected point total of just over 40 points. There's no need to play Lambo on Thursday with plenty of kicker streamers available on the Sunday slate of games.

The Indianapolis Colts tried out long-time Jacksonville Jaguars kicker
Josh Lambo on Tuesday, according to a source. Current kicker
Rodrigo Blankenship is already on shaky ground after missing one of his three field-goal attempts in the Week 1 tie with the Houston Texans. He also had two of his kickoffs go out of bounds for penalties that set the Texans up with great field position to start their drives. Blankenship missed most of last season due to a hip injury, so perhaps he's still dealing with that. Regardless, fantasy managers may need to look in another direction for Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars if Indy brings in another kicker.

Free-agent kicker
Josh Lambo filed a lawsuit against the Jacksonville Jaguars, seeking his $3.5 million salary for last season, plus damages for emotional distress. Lambo is claiming that his performance suffered as a result of being kicked and verbally abused by former head coach Urban Meyer. The 31-year-old is saying that the Jaguars created a hostile work environment in 2021. The fourth-most accurate kicker in NFL history was released last October. Meyer denies that the incident happened in the way Lambo described, but Lambo also said that the former head coach threatened to cut him just days after the kicking incident. It remains to be seen if Lambo has a real case here, but Meyer only made it 13 games in his Jaguars tenure before being fired.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have found their contingency plan at kicker should
Chris Boswell (concussion) ultimately not be cleared in time for Monday's contest against Chicago:
Josh Lambo. Lambo began the season as the primary kicker for Jacksonville, but was released after going 0-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-7 on extra points through the first three weeks. As recently as 2019, Lambo was the most accurate kicker in the league, going 33-for-34 on field goals. Boswell is currently in the league's concussion protocol, and while the Steelers are optimistic that it won't be a long-term absence, it stands to reason that he could be out Monday. Fantasy managers holding Boswell can wait, so long as they are comfortable pivoting to Lambo at the eleventh hour.
