Nick Folk Still On The Injury Report
New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Folk has been on the injury report more often than not this year with a left knee injury, but he hasn't missed any games and has been the most reliable kicker for fantasy in 2021. The matchup against the Buffalo Bills this […]
Ka'imi Fairbairn Lands On COVID-19 List
The Houston Texans placed kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn and linebacker Eric Wilson on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Fairbairn is vaccinated, so he'll have a chance to clear the protocols with a negative test to play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Wilson, on the other hand, is unvaccinated, so he'll be out in Week […]
Harrison Butker Out For Week 16
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, who tested positive for COVID-19 earlier in the week, is out on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers because he's unvaccinated, according to a source. Elliott Fry is expected to serve as the Chiefs kicker this weekend with Butker unavailable. Butker ranks as the No. 12 kicker in fantasy heading […]
Panthers Sign Lirim Hajrullahu
The Carolina Panthers signed kicker Lirim Hajrullahu off the Washington Football Team's practice squad on Wednesday. Hajrullahu will take over the kicking duties in Carolina after the team placed starter Zane Gonzalez (quadriceps) on Injured Reserve. Gonzalez strained his quad while warming up before the Week 15 game against the Buffalo Bills and will now […]
Kevin Stefanski Returns To The Browns
Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski has cleared the league's COVID-19 protocols and has returned to the team on Wednesday. The Browns were without Stefanski in Monday's loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, but they will have him back for a Week 16 showdown against the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day on Saturday. Cleveland […]
Zane Gonzalez Out For The Rest Of The Season
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez (hamstring) is being put on the injured reserve and will miss the remainder of the season. One of the lone bright spots for the Panthers' offense this season, Gonzalez got injured in the warm-up before the Bills' game. The Panthers will now need to sign another kicker and Gonzalez can […]
Brian Johnson Makes One Field Goal In Week 15
Washington Football Team kicker Brian Johnson made his only field goal attempt in Week 15 and was able to make both of his extra-point attempts. Johnson remains perfect on the year as he is yet to miss a field goal, so he is a very reliable option when he is relied upon. However, he hasn't […]
Jake Elliott Makes Five Kicks In Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made all five of his kick attempts in a Week 15 win over the Washington Football Team. Elliott made three extra points and two field goals, with the field goals coming from 20 and 37 yards out. He's been a prime example of how hard kickers are to predict in […]
Jason Myers Makes A Couple Kicks In Week 15
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers had a week of perfection, but it didn't lead to much fantasy production in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams on Tuesday. Myers made his only field-goal attempt while nailing his lone extra-point try. The Seattle offense struggled to generate points in this matchup, and they've struggled with consistency […]
Matt Gay Has A Solid Game In Week 15
Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay didn't have his best game of the season this week, but he still put up a solid fantasy outing in Week 15 against the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday. Gay went 4-for-4 on his kicking attempts while making two field goals (one from 50-plus yards) and two extra points. This […]
Jason Myers - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers hasn't been a great fantasy option this season, and he's not likely to turn that around in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams. This Rams defense isn't the elite unit we saw last season, but they're playing good football of late. They're also very healthy right now compared to […]
Chase McLaughlin Misses Another Kick In Week 15
Cleveland Browns kicker Chase McLaughlin missed his lone field goal try, a 47-yard attempt, in a 16-14 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 15. McLaughlin was called upon to try to put some points on the board at the end of the second quarter but he missed badly, his sixth missed field goal […]
Harrison Butker Lands On COVID-19 List
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker has been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list after testing positive for the virus Monday. Butker has been on a run of elite production since Week 8, having made multiple field goals in seven consecutive contests. The 26-year-old has missed just two extra points all season, increasing his accuracy to […]
Jaguars Change Offensive Play-Callers Ahead Of Week 16
Jacksonville Jaguars interim head coach Darrell Bevell has relinquished play-calling duties to quarterbacks coach Brian Schottenheimer ahead of the team's Week 16 matchup vs. the Jets. Bevell, who has been the team's offensive coordinator this season, has been unable to generate consistent production from a unit that ranks dead last in the league with 196 […]
Matt Gay - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay has been one of the best fantasy kickers all season, and that's going to continue in Week 15 against the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday. Gay is ranked fifth among kickers in fantasy points this season, and three of the four players in front of him have played an extra […]
Brandon McManus Makes 50-Yard Field Goal
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus made a 54-yard field goal in the 15-10 Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, but he also missed a 50-plus-yarder just before halftime that would've put the team in the lead. McManus had one extra-point attempt in the game and was successful. The offense never got hot […]
Robbie Gould Perfect In Week 15 Win
San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould converted a 30-yard field goal attempt and four extra-point attempts during a 31-13 Week 15 win against the Atlanta Falcons. Since returning from IR, the veteran placekicker has been solid, missing only two field-goal attempts and remaining perfect with his extra-point attempts. The 49ers are an efficient offense that […]
Ka'imi Fairbairn Perfect In Week 15
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn was perfect in the Texans Week 15 victory over the Jaguars. Fairbairn nailed all three of his field-goal attempts, with a long of 52 yards. Furthermore, he drilled all three of his extra points. This was the best-case scenario for Fairbairn to put up points, as the Texans scored three […]
Greg Zuerlein Makes Three Field Goals In Week 15
Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein made all three of his field goal attempts in a Week 15 win over the New York Giants, but missed his two extra point tries. Zuerlein's field goals came from 26, 42, and 27 yards out, and in a 21-6 win, the two missed extra points ultimately did not matter. […]
Chris Boswell Hits Four Field Goals In Win
Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell had a big afternoon in a 19-13 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 15. Boswell hit four of five field goals and tacked on an extra point in the comeback win. The veteran hit field goals from 36, 28, 46, and 48 yards with three of those FGs coming […]
Zane Gonzalez Ruled Out Late For Week 15
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez (quad) won't play during Sunday's meeting against Buffalo. He injured his quadriceps during pregame warmups and needed assistance off the field. Although it's not ideal to lose anyone, it's even worse for a team to be without a kicker, especially one ruled out within hours of kickoff. As a result, […]
Zane Gonzalez Helped Off The Field During Warmups
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez sustained a potential leg injury during warmups ahead of the Week 15 matchup against Buffalo. The veteran needed assistance off the field, so it appears that there is a good chance he won't play against the Bills. Although it's tough to tell how the team will approach this situation, fantasy […]
Michael Badgley Converts Two of Three Field Goals In Week 15 Win
Indianapolis Colts kicker Michael Badgley converted two of three field goals and all three extra-point attempts during a 27-17 Week 15 win over the New England Patriots. Badgley has been solid since taking over placekicking duties back in Week 6, missing only his second field goal of the season for the Colts on Saturday. Badgley […]

Brian Johnson - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Washington Football Team kicker Brian Johnson could see some meaningful usage in Week 15 as the depleted Washington offense faces the Eagles on Tuesday. Johnson hasn't missed a field goal this season, so when he is relied upon, he can certainly be trusted to put points on the board. Washington could have to settle for […]
Brett Maher - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New Orleans Saints kicker Brett Maher isn't worth starting in Week 15. Maher was only recently added to this roster and has gone 5-for-6 in field goals and 7-for-8 in extra points. The kicker hasn't proved he's a long-term reliable fantasy option and the Saints' offense can be a little inconsistent too. Add in that […]
Chris Boswell - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell will take on the Tennessee Titans at home in Week 15. Boswell missed just his second field goal of the season in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14. The Titans represent a neutral matchup for Boswell in Week 15 as they are allowing the 13th-most fantasy points […]
Zane Gonzalez - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez isn't a worthy start against the Buffalo Bills in Week 15. Gonzalez has been reliable all season, going 20-for-22 in field goals and 22-for-23 in extra points. Nevertheless, the kicker hasn't had that many chances to kick in most weeks and Buffalo is stingy against fantasy kickers, so the 26-year-old […]
Ka'imi Fairbairn - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn could have more success than usual in Week 15. Fairbairn has been a very good kicker for his entire tenure in Houston. He has an 83.9% career field-goal percentage. There has been a slight drop-off in 2021 to 78.6%, but across only 14 attempts. The Texans offense is set up […]
