Jake Moody Out, Matthew Wright Going On Injured Reserve
Both San Francisco 49ers kickers Jake Moody (ankle) and Matthew Wright (back, shoulder) have officially been ruled out for Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs, and Wright is being placed on Injured Reserve, which will sideline him for at least the next four games. By then, the 49ers hopefully will have Moody back in […]
Jake Bates A Solid Streaming Option For Week 7 Against Minnesota
Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates is coming off an impressive performance, going 4-for-4 on field goals and 5-for-5 on extra points last week. However, kickers have had limited opportunities against the Minnesota Vikings, averaging just 1.4 field goal attempts and 1.6 extra point attempts per game this season. While another huge game from Bates may […]
Austin Seibert Remains High-End Kicker In Week 7
Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert saw his perfect streak end last weekend, but he remains a top kicking option on Sunday. Last week, Seibert was given two attempts from over 50+ yards and went 1-for-2 on those attempts. He remained perfect from under 50 yards out and on extra-point attempts. Since joining Washington in Week […]
Jason Myers Could Be A Top-10 Kicker In Week 7
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers has had a relatively safe floor in 2024 due to the Seahawks' ability to move the ball down the field. He has remained relatively accurate, but he has not reached the double-digit fantasy heights since Week 2. That could change in Week 7 when the Seahawks visit the Atlanta Falcons. […]
Tyler Bass Kicking For His Job In Week 7?
Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass is 9-for-12 on field goals and 18-for-20 on extra points this season.

The Bills signed Lucas Havrisik to their practice squad, intending to create competition for Bass. If he continues […]
Eddy Pineiro Remains Low-End Option Against Commanders
At not much fault of his own, Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro has been a low-end fantasy producer this season. He's 9-of-10 on field goal attempts—missing a 45-yarder against Chicago—and a perfect 10-for-10 on extra point attempts. It's been a matter of the Panthers' offense, who rank 25th in yards per game, putting him in position […]
Jason Sanders Not A Recommended Week 7 Option
Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is not an ideal start this Sunday when the team squares off against the Indianapolis Colts. Scoring opportunities for the Dolphins offense have been challenging to come by this season.

Harrison Butker To Be Involved Against 49ers
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7.

Butker has been accurate this season, draining 12 of […]
Ka'imi Fairbairn An Elite Option Versus Green Bay
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn has been one of the best fantasy kickers in the NFL this season, and he remains a clear starter with Houston at Green Bay in Week 7. Fantasy managers who selected the Houston kicker have seen consistent production so far. The UCLA product is 13-for-15 on field goals, an impressive […]
Joey Slye A Low-End Streamer For Week 7
New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye has not been a dependable fantasy option over the last two weeks, but he could generate some streaming appeal in deeper leagues for Week 7. This Sunday, Slye will kick against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Given that the Jaguars have allowed the second-most points per game this season, the Patriots […]
Wil Lutz Busy On Thursday Night, Makes Four Field Goals
The Denver Broncos had their way with the hosting New Orleans Saints in Week 7 on Thursday night in a 33-10 win, which benefitted kicker Wil Lutz and any fantasy managers that streamed him in a plus matchup. Lutz made all four of his field-goal attempts (long of 52 yards) and all three of his […]
Bills Sign Lucas Havrisik To Spark Competition

Don’t Expect Much From Blake Grupe In Week 7

Jake Moody, Matthew Wright Miss Wednesday Practice
San Francisco 49ers kickers Jake Moody (ankle) and Matthew Wright (shoulder) were both listed as non-participants in the team's first practice of the week. In a bizarre occurrence, the 49ers have had a kicker get injured in back-to-back weeks while attempting a tackle on a kickoff return. It's not much of a surprise that Moody […]
Graham Gano Won't Come Off Injured Reserve This Week
New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that kicker Graham Gano (hamstring) won't come off the Injured Reserve to kick in Week 7 against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. Gano is not ready to return to the team despite missing the required four games on IR, so the Giants are expected to roll with veteran […]

The Green Bay Packers signed former Jacksonville Jaguars veteran kicker Brandon McManus to a one-year deal on Tuesday, according to a source.

49ers Sign Anders Carlson
The San Francisco 49ers are signing former Green Bay Packers kicker Anders Carlson to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to a source.

Tyler Bass Goes 1-For-2 On Monday Night
Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass struggled on Monday evening as he went 1-for-2 on field goal attempts and 2-for-3 on extra-point attempts in their victory over the New York Jets.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland nailed two field goals (38, 40) and one extra point in the 34-13 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Ryland has stepped up well, filling in for Matt Prater (knee).

Wil Lutz Posts A Dud In Loss To Chargers
Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz surprisingly entered the Week 6 divisional clash against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday as a top-10 fantasy kicker.
