Vikings Open Practice Window For Will Reichard
The Minnesota Vikings have opened rookie kicker Will Reichard's (quadriceps) 21-day practice window on Tuesday for him to return from Injured Reserve.

Wil Lutz Has Another Solid Performance Against Browns
While Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz didn't go off like he did in the Week 12 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, he was still very solid for fantasy managers in the 41-32 victory over the visiting Cleveland Browns on Monday night in Week 13.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott delivered a solid performance in the team's 24-19 victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

The 25-year-old now ranks as the overall K15 in […]
