Week 17 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
We've finally made it – Championship Week. It's been a long season and the last two weeks have been some sort of sick drill of trying to dodge landmine after landmine. Between the injuries and Covid-19, making it this far was a testament to your team's depth and luck. Regardless of the reason, you're here. […]
Joey Slye - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Washington Football Team kicker Joey Slye will look to continue his solid play since joining the team in Week 10. After missing three games with a hamstring injury, Slye returned to action and made two extra-point attempts, as he wasn't called upon to kick any field goals in what was a blowout loss to the […]
Matt Gay - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay should be started in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens, and that's all the analysis that is really necessary for him. On the season, Gay has just one game the entire year where he had fewer than eight fantasy points, and he's only five points behind the kicker with […]
Jason Myers - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers has been a below-average fantasy option all season long, and fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting that to change for him in Week 17 against the Detroit Lions. Myers has yet to score double-digit fantasy points this season after having five double-digit performances last season. The weather is expected to be […]
Questionable Tag For Nick Folk In Week 17
New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Week 17 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Folk continues to be listed on the team's injury report, but he will suit up on Sunday in a great matchup. The 37-year-old disappointed with only three extra points in […]
Brett Maher - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New Orleans Saints kicker Brett Maher isn't a strong option against Carolina in Week 17. The kicker has gone 9-for-10 in field goals and 7-for-8 in extra points in five games with the Saints. The offense for this team hasn't been consistently potent though and that means the opportunities Maher will see vary weekly. The […]
Brandon McManus - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus enters Week 17 action against the Los Angeles Chargers as the No. 18 kicker in total fantasy points. He's made 82.1% of his 28 field-goal attempts this season, but he's attempted only 30 extra points in 15 games, which ranks tied for 19th in the league. McManus has mostly been […]

Make sure to check back all week long as these rankings get updated. As we've seen for most of this NFL season, there are key injuries and COVID issues that will affect our […]
Jake Elliott - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has been a difficult kicker to trust this season as he's been as close to boom-or-bust as a fantasy kicker can be. With an excellent matchup against the Washington Football Team though, he should have some upside in the fantasy finals week. In Week 15 against the Football Team, Elliott […]

Lirim Hajrullahu - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Carolina Panthers kicker Lirim Hajrullahu shouldn't be in your starting lineup in Week 17. The kicker just played his first game for the Panthers last week and knocked down both of his field-goal attempts. It's hard to tell his consistency and reliability at this point given his small sample size. It's best to go with […]
Chris Boswell - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell will take on the Cleveland Browns at home in Heinz Stadium in Week 17's Monday Night Football game. Boswell has been mostly accurate for the Steelers this season, hitting 29 of 33 field goals, but he has misfired on three field goals over his past three games. The Browns have […]
Greg Zuerlein - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein is a solid choice for Week 17 fantasy lineups. The Cowboys will be taking on the Arizona Cardinals in what should be a relatively high scoring game. Zuerlein kicked eight extra points in Week 16 but didn't have a chance to kick a field goal. He should have fewer extra […]
Kyle Rudolph, Graham Gano Back At Practice Thursday
New York Giants tight end Kyle Rudolph (ankle) and kicker Graham Gano (illness) were both limited practice participants on Thursday after they weren't on the practice field on Wednesday. The return to practice suggests that both Rudolph and Gano will play in Week 17 against the Chicago Bears. However, neither player should be anywhere near […]
Chase McLaughlin Activated Thursday
The Cleveland Browns activated kicker Chase McLaughlin, defensive tackle Jordan Elliott, cornerback Greg Newsome II and center JC Tretter from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. With McLaughlin and the others ready to return for Week 17 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night, the Browns released Chris Naggar, who filled in for Cleveland on […]
Nick Folk Remains On The Injury Report
New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk (knee) was a limited practice participant to begin the week on Wednesday yet again. Folk will likely be limited all week before being taken off the final injury report for Week 17 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The highest-scoring kicker in fantasy this year had a down game in last […]
Graham Gano, Kyle Rudolph Out Wednesday
New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (illness) and tight end Kyle Rudolph (ankle) both missed practice on Wednesday. With COVID-19 outbreaks ravaging teams throughout the league, Gano's status is worth monitoring ahead of Week 17 against the Chicago Bears, although he shouldn't be started in fantasy in this terrible Giants offense. Gano has attempted just […]
Harrison Butker Back From COVID-19 List
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, cornerback Rashad Fenton, safety Armani Watts and punter Tommy Townsend were all activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, according to head coach Andy Reid. Butker, who ranks No. 14 in overall points in fantasy at his position, will return to the field this Sunday in a potentially high-scoring […]
Jets Get Robert Saleh Back From COVID-19 List
The New York Jets activated head coach Robert Saleh from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, so he will be back on the sidelines to coach the team in Week 17 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Saleh spent seven days in quarantine after testing positive for the virus on Dec. 22. Interim coach Ron Middleton, usually […]
Wil Lutz Shifted To COVID-19 List
The New Orleans Saints shifted kicker Wil Lutz (core) from injured reserve to the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday. He was already out for the season after undergoing core-muscle surgery earlier in the year. The 27-year-old tested positive for the virus and was one of many Saints players placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Lutz will continue to […]
NFL Adopts New Quarantine Rules For COVID-19
The NFL and NFL Players Association adopted the new CDC guidelines that reduce the quarantine time to five days from 10 days for all COVID-19-positive players who are asymptomatic, including those that are unvaccinated, according to sources. The NFL has endured a huge COVID surge in the last few weeks and have already altered their […]
Bruce Arians Tests Positive For COVID-19
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians has tested positive for COVID-19 and is isolating at home. Arians said he is dealing with mild symptoms, mainly a cough. Assistant head coach and run-game coordinator Harold Goodwin will handle Arians' duties on an interim basis if Arians is forced to miss Week 17 against the New […]
Matthew Wright Makes Three Field Goals Against The Jets
Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Matthew Wright converted all three of his field goal attempts in the team's 26-21 loss to the New York Jets. Wright is now an impressive 16/19 (84 percent) on field goals this season, but he simply cannot be counted on for suitable volume week in and week out, so fantasy managers are […]
Greg Zuerlein Makes Eight Extra Points In Week 16
Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein made all eight of his extra point kicks in a Week 16 blowout win over the Washington Football Team. He ended up not attempting a single field goal, but still made eight kicks through the uprights as the Cowboys destroyed the Football Team by a score of 56-14. Zuerlein has […]
Brandon McManus Makes A 55-Yarder In Week 16
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus made two of his three field-goal attempts, including a 55-yarder, and his only extra-point try in the team's 17-13 loss to the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders in Week 16. Although the Broncos offense really struggled to move the ball on offense with quarterback Drew Lock making his first start of […]
Jason Myers Makes A Couple Kicks In Week 16
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is going to be hating his drive home after a tough loss in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. Myers went 4-for-5 on his kicking opportunities on the day, with his lone miss being a field goal that would have been the difference in the Seahawks coming out of this […]
Panthers Dealing With COVID-19 Outbreak
Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said on Monday that the team has had a "somewhat significant" outbreak of positive COVID-19 tests. Everybody has been sent home and Rhule hopes they will be able to resume preparation for Week 17 against the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday. The Panthers appear to be the latest NFL […]
Dan Campbell To Finish The Season As The Play-Caller
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that he will continue to call the offensive plays for the final two games of the regular season. Detroit's offense has looked better since Campbell took over the play-calling duties with more input from offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. "Definitely, I feel like every week I've gotten a lot […]
