Hey, RotoBallers! Week 16 has arrived. The second round of the fantasy football playoffs is finally here, and fantasy managers are one game away from the fantasy Super Bowl. For the old-school managers who still utilize kickers in their starting lineups, we help guide you on which kicker to start or sit with our NFL team's Week 16 fantasy football kicker rankings for the 2023 fantasy football season.

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey has converted an NFL record 31 straight field goals in 2023. He will look to continue his streak in a potential shootout against the Miami Dolphins in Week 16. Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will look to bounce back against the Giants after scoring five points in last Monday's loss to the Eagles. Find out where Aubrey, Elliott, and other potential streaming options such as Tyler Bass, Michael Badgley, Younghoe Koo, and Matt Gay rank this week.

Week 16 Fantasy Football Kicker Outlooks and Rankings Analysis

A new feature has been added to our weekly fantasy football rankings article. Below, you will find our fantasy football outlooks for key options in Week 16, which gives readers a matchup preview of that player and advice on whether to start or avoid for the upcoming week. We provide outlooks for all 32 NFL teams, which can be found on our player profile pages and our fantasy football news desk.

Jason Myers, K, Seattle Seahawks
Week 16 Kicker Rank: 13

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers made good on field goal attempts from 26 and 43 yards out and connected on both of his extra-point tries in Week 15's surprise win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Myers now ranks second in field goals attempted and third in field goals made and remains perfect on extra-points. In Week 16, Seattle plays the Tennessee Titans, who have allowed the most fantasy points per game to kickers as well as the most field goals made and attempts.

This may be a result of their defensive success in the red zone, limiting opponents to a 37.3% success rate and forcing kickers onto the field more often. If the Seahawks fall victim to this as well, it will give Myers ample opportunity to pad his stats. If you don't already have your kicker slot squared away, Myers is worthy of a start.

Tyler Bass, K, Buffalo Bills
Week 16 Kicker Rank: 4

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass has provided solid yet unspectacular results leading into a Week 16 road date with the Los Angeles Chargers. Bass drilled his lone field-goal attempt, a 23-yard boot, and each of his four extra-point tries in last Sunday's 31-10 destruction of the Dallas Cowboys. After logging single-digit fantasy outputs in each of his six games from Weeks 5 through 10, Bass has posted at least seven points in four consecutive games.

The Georgia Southern product's 115 fantasy points to date reside 13th amongst kickers. Kicking indoors on a team that situates as substantial favorites and an offense that's discovered its rhythm of late sounds like a recipe conducive to fantasy success on Saturday. Bass can be deployed as a top-five play in this highly advantageous setup.

Matt Gay, K, Indianapolis Colts
Week 16 Kicker Rank: 6

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay (hip) will not carry a designation into the Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons. Gay missed Wednesday's practice, then logged a limited session on Thursday, and on Friday was able to participate in full, per the team's official injury report. On the season, Gay has gone 26-for-33 on field goal attempts and has converted 32 of his 33 extra-point tries.

Five of his misses (including the whiffed PAT) have come in the four games since the Colts' Week 11 bye, but Gay saw enough success in the same timeframe to finish as a top-10 kicker three times. On the season he has been a top-10 option nine times and can be counted on for another strong finish on Sunday in the neutral conditions of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
