Younghoe Koo Active, Mack Hollins A Healthy Scratch

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (illness) is officially active and will play in Week 15 on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.

Jason Myers Not A Top Option In Week 15

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers went into Week 14 having missed a field goal in three straight games. Myers had just one attempt in the loss against the San Francisco 49ers and hit it from 40 yards out. He also converted his lone extra-point try, bringing him to 26-for-26 on the season. His 78.8% success […]

Lucas Havrisik Worth A Start In Week 15

Los Angeles Rams kicker Lucas Havrisik had his most productive performance of the season against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 14. Havrisik was perfect on all three of his field goal attempts and converted on both extra-point tries in the team's overtime loss. After constant struggles, the 24-year-old was given one more chance to prove […]

Chad Ryland Belongs On Waivers In Week 15

New England Patriots kicker Chad Ryland is off the fantasy radar for Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Between poor offensive performances and his own accuracy issues, the rookie kicker has gone just 12-for-18 on field goals this season. Even on a normal week, he can't be relied upon to lead fantasy managers to […]

Justin Tucker Still One Of The Best Options In Week 15

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker is fresh off of another double-digit fantasy performance after he made two field goals within 40 yards and another 40-yarder against the Los Angeles Rams. He also made both of his extra-point attempts. Against the Jaguars, the offense has plenty of opportunity to move the ball down the field. At […]

Younghoe Koo Questionable For Week 15

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (illness) was added to the injury report on Saturday and is officially questionable to play against the Carolina Panthers in Week 15. While Koo practiced in full all week long, it appears that he started experiencing symptoms sometime this weekend. On a positive note, the Falcons opted against signing a […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Activated From Injured Reserve

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (right quadricep) has been activated from injured reserve ahead of Week 15 versus the Tennessee Titans. This move was widely expected after he practiced in full all week long and did not carry an injury designation into the weekend. While Fairbairn ranked as a top-12 kicker when healthy earlier this […]

Chris Boswell - Week 15 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: K1 ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell should be started in most fantasy leagues during his matchup against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday, Dec. 16, 2023, at 4:30 p.m. EST. Boswell remains one of the league's more reliable kickers deep into his age-32 season. So far […]

Wil Lutz Firmly In Play As Kicking Option In Week 15

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has a lot of things working in his favor for a Saturday night primetime matchup against the hosting Detroit Lions. For one, Lutz will be kicking indoors and won't have to deal with the elements. The Lions defense has also been a top-10 matchup for opposing kickers in the last […]

Jason Sanders A Streaming Option In Week 15

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders missed one of his three field goal attempts in Week 14 while making all three extra-point attempts. If he could knock through his 40-yarder, he would have finished with a fourth consecutive double-digit fantasy performance. Against the New York Jets in Week 15, the offense is likely to stall if […]

Dustin Hopkins A Decent Fantasy Kicker In Week 15

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins made his lone field goal and added four extra points in a Week 14 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Hopkins has been a reliable kicker for Cleveland this season as his 31 made field goals lead the NFL. He will look to keep it going at home against the Chicago […]

Eddy Pineiro A Low-End Option In Week 15

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro made two of his three field goals, including a 47-yarder, in a 28-6 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. The veteran has been solid for the Panthers this season, with 21 field goals in 25 attempts thus far. In Week 15 he will take on the Atlanta […]

Jake Moody Good For Playoff Lineups

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody visits Arizona to kick off versus the Cardinals on Sunday. Last week against Seattle, Moody's only scoring happened on four extra points. It's been two games without a field goal for Moody, which stings a bit for fantasy managers, but the only reason he hasn't gotten one is that […]

Matt Prater A Risky Week 15 Option

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater booted one 51-yard field goal and three extra points in the team's Week 13 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers two weeks ago. He looked good in that matchup and fresh off a Week 14 bye, should be well-rested and ready to go. However, the Cardinals take on a stiff test […]

Greg Zuerlein Should Be Avoided Against Dolphins

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein was excellent in Week 14, drilling three field goals and going three-for-three on extra-point tries. Unfortunately, he may not see as many opportunities on the road in Week 15 against the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins' defense has been rather stout at home this season, limiting opponents to just over […]

Chris Boswell A Sneaky Streaming Option On Saturday

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell drilled his lone field goal attempt and converted on his only extra-point try of a 21-18 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 14. The 32-year-old will hope to be much more involved on Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts. Although the Steelers' offense led by quarterback Mitch Trubisky is […]

Chargers Fire Brandon Staley, Tom Telesco

The Los Angeles Chargers are firing head coach Brandon Staley and long-time general manager Tom Telesco on Friday, according to a source.

Blake Grupe Should Be Avoided In Week 15

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe has now posted back-to-back disappointing weeks. While he was a perfect 4-for-4 on extra points against Carolina in Week 14, he missed his lone field goal attempt from 29 yards out. The New York Giants have been a tough matchup for kickers this season, allowing an average of 6.9 […]

Ka’imi Fairbairn Designated For Return From The Injured Reserve List

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadricep) was designated for return from the injured reserve list on Wednesday. Fairbairn has missed the past five games with a quad injury.

Bill Belichick To Be Fired After The Season?

According to NBC Sports Boston's Tom E. Curran, a decision about New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick's future has already been made by owner Robert Kraft. "When they came out of [the 10-6 loss to the Colts on Nov. 12 in] Germany, conversations I had that week made it very clear that a decision […]

Cameron Dicker Not A Strong Week 15 Option

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker isn't a great fantasy option in a Week 15 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Dicker has been excellent all season, missing only one field goal way back in Week 3. The issue with "Dicker the Kicker" is that he's going to be playing on an offense that is […]

When Will Ka'imi Fairbairn Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update

The Houston Texans have been without kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn since Week 9 when he suffered a quad injury in a win over the Buccaneers. The team was forced to use kicker Dare Ogunbowale as the kicker in that game. Since then, Fairbairn has been on the sidelines while Matt Ammendola has kicked for the Texans. […]

Texans Release Matt Ammendola

The Houston Texans released kicker Matt Ammendola from their practice squad on Tuesday in anticipation of activating regular kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) from Injured Reserve later this week in time for their Week 15 game on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Ammendola served as Houston's kicker in the five games that Fairbairn missed while on […]

Rams Cut Mason Crosby

The Los Angeles Rams released kicker Mason Crosby from their practice squad on Tuesday.

Texans Expect Ka'imi Fairbairn To Return This Week

The Houston Texans are expected to get starting kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) back from Injured Reserve in Week 15 for the contest against the Tennessee Titans, according to a source. Fairbairn has missed the last five games with a strained right quadriceps muscle, but he's fully recovered now and is set to return to regular […]

Mason Crosby Won't Play In Week 14

Los Angeles Rams kicker Mason Crosby is a healthy scratch for Week 14 versus the Baltimore Ravens. He was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday as the team explores its kicking options amidst Lucas Havrisik's struggles. In the end, though, Havrisik will retain his job for at least one more week. The 24-year-old is […]
