Matt Bryant Practices In Full

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) put in a full practice on Thursday. Barring any setbacks, it looks like Bryant will be back in action for the first time since he aggravated his hamstring on Oct. 14 this Sunday against the Cowboys. The ageless wonder has made all nine of his field-goal tries this year […]

Dustin Hopkins Remains Absent Thursday

Washington Redskins kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Head coach Jay Gruden said the big test will come on Friday, when Hopkins typically kicks. It's looking increasingly unlikely that Hopkins will play in Week 11 against the Texans, but we won't know until Friday. If he sits out, […]

Matt Bryant To Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) will kick in practice on Thursday. Bryant hasn't been active in a game since Oct. 14, but he's made all nine of his field goals and 16 of 17 extra points this year. When healthy, the 43-year-old is one of the better fantasy options. If he can't go again […]

Jamison Crowder, Dustin Hopkins Miss Practice

Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) and kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) both missed practice on Wednesday. Crowder hasn't played in well over a month and doesn't look close to returning at this point. Leave him on the waiver wire. Josh Doctson and Maurice Harris will continue to serve as the top two wideouts if […]

Mason Crosby Looks For Fifth Consecutive Perfect Game

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby has been perfect in his previous four games. He's looking to make that five consecutive weeks when the team goes to Seattle to face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11. It should be an average game for Crosby. The Seattle defense is above average, but they shouldn't keep Aaron […]

Week 11 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Chiefs-Rams Monday Night Game Being Moved To LA

Week 11's Monday night matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams is being moved from Mexico City to Los Angeles due to poor field conditions in Estadio Azteca, according to sources.

Tampa Signs Cairo Santos

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed free-agent kicker Cairo Santos on Monday, according to a source. The Bucs released Chandler Catanzaro earlier in the day after he missed two field goals in the Week 10 loss to the Redskins.

Mason Crosby Perfect Against Dolphins

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby was perfect on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. Crosby helped the Packers win 31-12. He made four extra-points to go along with a 38 yard field goal. Crosby has been having a great season, and he continues to put up fantasy points. It's the beginning of the bad weather […]

Todd Bowles Not Expected To Be Fired In Season

The New York Jets are not expected to make a decision on head coach Todd Bowles until after the season, according to sources. The Jets got embarrassed by the Bills in Week 10, losing 41-10 at home, so Bowles is firmly on the hot seat. Whether the team's brass thinks he can successfully develop rookie […]

Chandler Catanzaro Released By Tampa

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released kicker Chandler Catanzaro on Monday, according to sources. Catanzaro made 11 of his 15 field-goal tries and 23 of his 27 extra-point attempts this year. He missed two of his three tries in the Week 10 loss to the Redskins and was let go as a result. Whoever Tampa brings […]

Jason Sanders Converts Four Field Goals In Week 10

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders had a nice day scoring in the Dolphins' 31-12 loss to Green Bay in Week 10. He was four-of-four in field goals and scored all 12 of Miami's points. Sanders has been one of the most reliable kickers in the league this season, having missed just one field goal and […]

Matt Prater Hits A 52-Yard Field Goal In Week 10

Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater booted a 52-yard field goal and hit an extra point in Sunday's 34-22 loss to the Bears. It was the second 50-plus yard field goal that Prater has hit this season, and he also has yet to miss an extra point on the year. He'll get to return indoors next […]

Giorgio Tavecchio Has Quiet Day In Cleveland

Atlanta Falcons kicker Giorgio Tavecchio had a relatively disappointing game against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Tavecchio can be satisfied in his performance, as he once again did exactly what was asked of him, converting an extra point and a relatively short field goal. However, for his fantasy owners Tavecchio will have returned a poor […]

Giorgio Tavecchio A Solid Play On Sunday

Atlanta Falcons kicker Giorgio Tavecchio will once again be kicking for the Falcons against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. Tavecchio will continue to kick for the Falcons as Matt Bryant recovers from his hamstring injury. With a high flying offense the floor is solid for Tavecchio, who should at least get the opportunity to […]

Matt Bryant Back At Practice

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Bryant has missed the last two games, but his limited practice on Thursday means he definitely has a shot to kick in Week 10 against the Browns. The 43-year-old booter has made all nine of his field […]

Mohamed Sanu, Matt Bryant Miss Practice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (hip) and kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) were not practicing on Wednesday. Sanu has been on the injury report in recent weeks but hasn't missed any time. He had a stretch where he scored three touchdowns in four games but has cooled off since as rookie Calvin Ridley becomes a […]

Mason Crosby Set For Big Performance

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby has been money lately. The Packers face the Miami Dolphins in Week 10. The team could get out to a quick lead. That means lots of extra-points for fantasy owners. It also means that the Packers might run clock and kick field goals late in the game. If this […]

Broncos Staying The Course With Vance Joseph

Denver Broncos general manager John Elway isn't ready to fire head coach Vance Joseph and told reporters last week he'd seen enough "good things" during the first half of the season to remain confident. “At this point, we’re going to stay the course,” Elway said during his weekly appearance on Orange & Blue 760, a […]

Cowboys Won't Make In-Season Coaching Change

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the team would not be making an in-season coaching change following the team's 28-14 Monday night loss to the Titans. Dallas is now 3-5 on the year and two games back of the NFC East-leading Redskins. Head coach Jason Garrett has gone 70-58 with only two playoff appearances and […]

Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

As the season rolls on, the kicker position is always a tough one to gauge. There are so few players locked in as starters that you sometimes have to hope you get lucky.

Michael Badgley Back On Active Roster

The Los Angeles Chargers promoted kicker Michael Badgley from their practice squad to the active roster on Monday after they released Caleb Sturgis. Badgley made all three of his field goals and all seven of his extra-point tries while filling in for the injured Sturgis in recent weeks, so he has earned the full-time gig […]

Mason Crosby Gets Limited Opportunities In Packers' Loss

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby was perfect yet again in the loss to the New England Patriots. Crosby only got three chances to score on Sunday night as the Packers only put up 17 points. Crosby made two extra-point attempts and connected on a 27-yard field goal. He has been making the most of […]

Caleb Sturgis Likely To Be Cut After Terrible Return

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Caleb Sturgis was handed the kicking job once again over Mike Badgley after recovering from quad injury, but he likely handed it right back on Sunday. Sturgis missed his only field goal opportunity and two of the three extra point chances he got. Sturgis pulled all three kicks to the left, […]

Chargers Release Caleb Sturgis

The Los Angeles Chargers are releasing kicker Caleb Sturgis on Monday, according to a source. Sturgis has been either unreliable or injured for the Bolts this year, and it made complete sense to let him go after he missed another field goal and two extra points in the Week 9 win over the Seahawks in […]

Matt Prater Hits Three Field Goals In Week 9 Loss

Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater hit all three of his field goal attempts in Sunday's loss to the Vikings. Prater scored the only points for Detroit on Sunday and has now hit his last seven field goals. It was a tough day for the Lions offense but they were able to get Prater in a […]

Giorgio Tavecchio Has Solid Performance Sunday

Atlanta Falcons kicker Giorgio Tavecchio did everything asked of him against the Washington Redskins on Sunday. Tavecchio converted all of his opportunities to remain perfect with the Falcons this season. Unfortunately for his fantasy owners, only one of Tavecchio's kicks were field goals limiting his fantasy points return. In addition, the field goal he got […]

John Harbaugh On The Hot Seat

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh is on the hot seat as the team prepares for a divisional showdown against the Steelers in Week 9.
