Christian Kirk is expected to make his return this week. Josh Jacobs and Tyrell […]

Chase McLaughlin Shouldn't Be Started

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Chase McLaughlin shouldn't be started this week against the Chicago Bears. While the Chargers kicker has been relatively accurate this season, he has missed two field goals, although he converted all of his attempts against the Tennessee Titans last week. However, the Chargers are unlikely to be a high-scoring offense this […]

Wil Lutz Could Be Busy Against Cardinals

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz draws a good matchup against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8. The 25-year-old had four field-goal attempts in a game for the third time this season but missed two attempts last week. The Cardinals Defense has allowed 27.4 points per game to opposing offenses, 28th in the league. The […]

Michael Badgley Won't Play In Week 8

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that kicker Michael Badgley (groin), who is questionable for Week 8 against the Bears, won't play on Sunday. Chase McLaughlin will get his fourth start at kicker but should be avoided in fantasy for a struggling offense in a tough matchup on the road in the Windy […]

Chris Boswell Not A Great Streaming Option In Week 8

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell has been perfect so far in 2019. However, with a projected blowout against the Miami Dolphins on Monday night, Boswell might not be getting a lot of field-goal opportunities. He's a better option in Week 9 when the Steelers face off with Indianapolis.

Keenan Allen, Michael Badgley Questionable

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) and kicker Michael Badgley (groin) are both listed as questionable for Week 8 against the Bears. Allen suffered a mid-week injury and missed practice both Thursday and Friday, so he's in serious danger of missing Sunday's game or being limited. Allen will be a bust candidate against […]

Dan Bailey Hits Four Field Goals In Victory

Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey hit four of four field goals and his lone extra point in a 19-9 win over Washington in Week 8. He hit a 50-yarder with ease in the first quarter in what has become a very steady season for the veteran. He is 12-for-14 (86%) on the year and has […]

Mason Crosby An Effective Starter This Week

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby could be in line for another week of being an effective starter against the Kansas City Chiefs. Crosby has been accurate all season, missing only one kick back in Week 3. While Crosby was only able to score six points last week against the Oakland Raiders, that was due […]

Matt Bryant Is A Potential Low-End Starter In Week 8

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant has converted seven of 10 field-goal attempts this year and 14 of 15 extra-point attempts. This week the Falcons face off against the Seahawks in a game that should be high scoring. The Falcons might be without quarterback Matt Ryan (ankle), who is currently questionable for the game.

Aldrick Rosas Is On The Verge Of Streaming

New York Giants kicker Aldrick Rosas is on the verge of being streamable this week against the Lions. The former Pro Bowler hasn't had much success this year and has yet to make more than one field goal in a game all season. However, he's in a good matchup. The Giants figure to move the […]

Ryan Succop Designated To Return

The Tennessee Titans designated kicker Ryan Succop (knee), who was put on Injured Reserve before the season opener, to return from IR later this year. He'll be allowed to resume practicing with the team, but he won't be eligible to play until Week 9 against the Panthers. Cody Parkey has been with the team the […]

Jake Elliott Limited By the Eagles Offense

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has made every single kick so far this season, but his fantasy value has suffered due to an all-around struggling offense. Elliott has only attempted eight field goals and 17 extra points, and while he's made all of them, he currently ranks as just the 20th best kicker in standard […]

Week 8 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 7 is over, and a few things have changed. The Los Angeles Rams learned how to play offense again, and the New York Jets came back to Earth, among other things. Week 7 was an especially quiet week for kickers across the NFL. A lot of kickers weren't able to get on the field […]

Brett Maher Has a Huge Week 7

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher had a big game in a Week 7 win. He knocked through all four of his extra points and made his three field goal attempts too. He knocked through a 63-yard boot and has proven to be one of the more consistent kicking options while also having a big enough […]

Jake Elliott Makes One Field Goal and One Extra Point

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott connected on his one field goal try and on his one extra point try in a Week 7 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Elliott made his 38-yard field goal in the third quarter, but wasn't needed much in what ended up being a blowout loss to the division rival Philadelphia […]

Wil Lutz Solid Despite Two Missed Field Goals

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz had a good day, despite missing two kicks from 40 yards and out. Lutz did hit two field goals from 30-39 yards out and nailed all four of his extra-point attempts. The 25-year-old has now made 15 of 18 field goals and 15 of 16 extra points. He's a […]

Dan Bailey Misses Only Field Goal Attempt In Week 7

Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey missed a 45-yard field goal but went a perfect 6-for-6 on extra-point attempts in Week 7's win over the Detroit Lions. This was Bailey's second missed field goal this season, but he's still hitting 80% of his attempts and nailed his lone 50-yard attempt back in Week 3. Bailey is […]

Robbie Gould Scores All The Points

San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould provided all the scoring in a 9-0 shutout against the Washington Redskins in Week 7. Gould converted three of four field goal tries, all inside the 30-yard line. Kicking with a new crew in 2019, Gould hasn’t been as automatic as past years and is now 12-for-19 on the […]

Mason Crosby Converts All Attempts In Victory Over Oakland

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby was able to convert all of his kicking attempts in the victory over the Oakland Raiders. Crosby was not asked to attempt any field goals in the game but converted all six of his extra-point attempts. Crosby has been accurate all season, but his fantasy performance was limited due […]

Adam Vinatieri Is Flawless In Week 7

Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri was flawless in Week 7 as he went 4-for-4 on extra-point attempts, but he was unable to get any field-goal opportunities because his offense was efficient at scoring touchdowns. He gives you a consistent option every week because his offense is able to move the ball, and he's been one […]

Aldrick Rosas Misses Only Field-Goal Attempt For Giants

New York Giants kicker Aldrick Rosas made all three of his extra points but missed a 37-yard field goal on Sunday afternoon. Obviously the rainy conditions weren't ideal for kicking, but Rosas simply isn't getting enough opportunities this season to be fantasy viable.

Michael Badgley Remains Out

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Michael Badgley (groin) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Titans. Badgley has returned to practice but isn't yet ready to make his season debut. The Chargers will continue to roll with rookie Chase McLaughlin as their kicker, but he's been predictably inconsistent and should be avoided for fantasy […]

Michael Badgley Questionable Against Titans

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Michael Badgley (groin) practiced in full the last two days and is listed as questionable for Week 7 against the Titans. Badgley has been out all season but looks to have a good chance to make his season debut on the road in Tennessee. As usual, the Bolts have had a […]

Wil Lutz May Have Quiet Day Against Bears

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz could be in for a tough game against the Chicago Bears in Week 7. Lutz has been excellent, ranking eighth in the league among kickers with 54 fantasy points this season. Unfortunately, the Bears Defense ranks third in the NFL in fantasy points against kickers. In what could end […]

Mason Crosby In Line For Great Game Against Oakland

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby is in line for a great game against the Oakland Raiders. The Packers have needed to call upon their veteran kicker multiple times this season, with him only missing one of his 11 attempts this year. Given the struggles that the offense has had this season and the offense […]

Matt Bryant A Solid Starter For Week 7

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant had a strong showing in Week 6 despite missing a crucial extra point for his team. Bryant hit both of his field-goal attempts, including a 44-yarder, but missed the last one of his four extra-point attempts, resulting in the Falcons one-point loss to the Cardinals. This week, the Falcons face […]
