Samuel Sloman Should Play Well In Week 4
Los Angeles Rams kicker Samuel Sloman hasn't been the best kicker for fantasy to start the year because of his offense's efficiency, but he should bounce back in Week 5 against the Washington Football Team. Washington is 0-4 through the first quarter of the season, and they just made a switch at quarterback, which could […]
Joey Slye A Streaming Option For Week 5
Carolina Panthers kicker Joey Slye is a streaming option for this week against Atlanta. On the season, Slye has gone 10-for-11 in field goal attempts and 7-for-9 in extra point attempts.

Greg Zuerlein Almost Sure To Improve In Week 5
