Wil Lutz Serviceable In Week 5 Win

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz delivered for fantasy managers that streamed him in the 34-18 Week 5 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. The Broncos offense finally came alive against a struggling Raiders defense, allowing Lutz plenty of opportunities to kick for points. He ended up making both of his field goals […]

Daniel Carlson Converts Only Field-Goal Attempt In Loss To Denver

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson continues to be given too little opportunity to succeed by his offense. Against the Denver Broncos in Week 5, the seventh-year vet drilled his only attempt and converted a single extra point in Sunday's 34-18 loss. That's not a recipe for fantasy success for a kicker. He converted an […]

Jake Moody To Miss Multiple Weeks

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (ankle) exited the team's 24-23 loss to the Arizona Cardinals after injuring his ankle on a tackle attempt and did not return.

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins made both of his field goals and added an extra point in a 34-13 loss to the Washington Commanders in Week 5.

Jason Myers Has Kick Blocked

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers had a game-tying kick blocked and returned for a touchdown in Week 5 against the New York Giants. Despite the "missed" kick, Myers still ended up with nine fantasy points for another respectful outing as a kicker. Myers has only missed two field goals on the season, and one could […]

Jake Moody Won't Return On Sunday

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (ankle) won't return to Sunday's matchup with the Arizona Cardinals. The veteran made both field goals before suffering a right ankle injury while trying to make a tackle. With that said, there should be an update on his condition soon.

Jake Moody Questionable To Return On Sunday

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Arizona Cardinals. The veteran has played well in Week 5, making both field goal tries.

Matt Prater Out Against 49ers

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (knee) has officially been tagged as inactive for the team's Week 5 contest against the San Francisco 49ers.

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein made his lone field-goal attempt and added two extra points in a 23-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 5. Zuerlein drilled a 32-yard field goal in the third quarter but wasn't asked to do much else in the close loss in London. The veteran kicker has now […]

Will Reichard Perfect On Kicks Again In Week 5

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard drilled every attempt he made yet again in Week 5 against the New York Jets. The rookie kicker was 2-for-2 on extra point attempts and 3-for-3 on field goals, drilling the kicks from 54, 53, and 41 yards in the London game. Reichard's impressive rookie season continues as he has […]

Harrison Butker To Continue Strong Performance

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the New Orleans Saints on Monday night in Week 5. Butker made one of his two field goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in last week's contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. The field goal that Butker missed in that game was his first missed […]

Chad Ryland Elevated To The Active Roster

The Arizona Cardinals elevated kicker Chad Ryland to the active roster for Sunday's game against the 49ers. The 24-year-old had a rough season in 2023, making only 64% of his field goal attempts. While that type of production won't land him on most fantasy rosters, Saturday's move could mean Matt Prater, who is questionable, (knee) […]

Chris Boswell A Middling Starting Option In Week 5

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell is tied for second in the NFL in field goals made so far this season and will look to stay involved against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 5. The Cowboys, dealing with numerous injuries to key defensive starters, have allowed 26 points per contest through the first four weeks. This […]

Jake Moody Has Solid Opportunity In Week 5

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody has a home matchup in Week 5 against the Arizona Cardinals.

Matt Prater Questionable To Kick In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (left knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Friday.

The Cardinals are officially listing him as questionable for Week 5 versus the San Francisco 49ers. Prater has remained quite […]

Cairo Santos A Strong Fantasy Kicker Option Against The Panthers

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos is a solid fantasy option for Week 5 against the Carolina Panthers.

Cam Little A Decent Play In Week 5 Against Colts

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little should be a solid fantasy play in Week 5 against the Indianapolis Colts.

As the offense continues to get better, so should Little's fantasy […]

Joey Slye Remains Top-12 Kicker For Week 5

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye looks to build off last week's productive outing with a big game against the Miami Dolphins in Week 5. The veteran was the 11th-ranked kicker in terms of fantasy points last week, and this week, he benefits from an even more favorable matchup. The Dolphins have allowed the second-most […]

Justin Tucker Not A Trustworthy Option In Week 5

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has taken quite the tumble down the fantasy ladder through the first four weeks. The historically accurate, Texas product has only posted one week in K1 territory so far and has finished K17 or worse in the other three weeks. It's not due to his offense being unable to move […]

Greg Joseph Looking For Another Big Day In Week 5

New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph will enter Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks riding some momentum after making all five of his field goal attempts in last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys, including a long of 52 yards. Through two games this season, Joseph is 2-for-2 on PATs and has yet to miss […]

Blake Grupe Returns To Full Practice

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe (hip) practiced in full on Friday after he was given an DNP tag on Thursday. Grupe was looking iffy for Week 5 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football after popping up on the initial injury report, but a return to a full practice a day later […]

Dustin Hopkins A Mid-Range Option In Week 5

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins has been solid this season, hitting five of his six field goals and adding five extra points on six attempts.

Greg Zuerlein A Low-End Option In Week 5

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein will head to London to take on the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5. Zuerlein has been a bit erratic of late, having missed two of his six attempts over the past two games. He will look to get back on track but he may have a hard […]

Brayden Narveson A Desperation Play In Week 5

Green Bay Packers kicker Brayden Narveson was a top-10 fantasy kicker through the first three weeks of the season, going 9-of-11 in field goal attempts while making each of his six extra-point attempts. In Week 4, the wheels fell off last week against the Vikings. Narveson missed both field goal attempts on the afternoon but […]
