Week 17 Kicker Rankings for Fantasy Football: Chase McLaughlin, Will Reichard, Jason Sanders, Brandon Aubrey, Brandon McManus, Tyler Bass

It's fantasy football championship week, and believe it or not, a kicker can make the difference between winning and losing your league's title game. That said, we're here to help with our Week 17 fantasy football kicker rankings for the 2024 NFL season. Let's see where key kicker options like Chase McLaughlin, Will Reichard, Jason […]

Blake Grupe A Risky Bet In Week 17

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe was blanked in Week 16. It wasn't that he missed any kicks, it was the fact that the offense was never in a position to get him on the field in a 34-0 shellacking at the hands of the Green Bay Packers. When Grupe last saw scoring opportunities, in […]

Cam Little Not Good Enough For Fantasy Championships In Week 17

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little should not be heavily considered by managers in fantasy championships in Week 17 against the Tennessee Titans. The rookie kicker has had a solid season, but his fantasy output has been greatly limited by the Jaguars offense. When the Jaguars faced the Titans back in Week 14, they only scored […]

Jake Bates A Top Kicking Option In Week 17

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates is afforded one of the better matchups of Week 17 when he lines up against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. The 25-year-old has been excellent this season -- driving through all but one of his 59 extra-point attempts and knocking in 23-of-26 field goal tries across 15 […]

Dustin Hopkins A Low-End Option In Week 17

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins is struggling through a tough season as he has made just 16 of his 25 field-goal attempts. He will hope to finish out the final two games of the season on a high note, starting with a Week 17 home matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins have been generous […]

Chase McLaughlin Is Worth Streaming In Week 17

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin is coming off a somewhat quiet, but clean outing against the Dallas Cowboys last week. McLaughlin connected on all three of his extra point attempts and his lone field goal in the loss. McLaughlin is now 8-of-9 on field goal attempts over his last four games. He'll now head […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 17? Will Reichard, Jason Sanders, Chase McLaughlin

Choosing which kicker to start in fantasy football can become a paradoxical trap at times. If you think too hard about it, you'll often start the wrong players. But if you don't think too hard, sometimes you forget about important situations that can make a big difference in their scoring. At the very least, you […]

Jason Sanders A Sit Despite Hot Streak In Week 17

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders has been one of the best kickers in fantasy football over the last several games. He has scored the most fantasy points by any kicker since Week 8 and has made his last 23 field goal attempts. In Week 17, he and the Dolphins will travel to Cleveland to take […]

Zane Gonzalez A Risky Streaming Option Against Atlanta

Washington Commanders kicker Zane Gonzalez is a risky streaming option in Week 17 when he faces the Atlanta Falcons. Gonzalez has filled in for the injured Austin Seibert (groin), who has been on the IR since Week 12. As the replacement option, Gonzalez has gone 3-for-5 on attempts and a perfect 14-for-14 on extra points. […]

Will Reichard A Strong Option Vs. Green Bay

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard gets an unfavorable spot against the visiting Green Bay Packers this Sunday. The rookie has been excellent since returning from a quad injury in Week 14. Reichard missed a field goal that Sunday in a win over the Atlanta Falcons, but he's otherwise been perfect over that stretch – knocking […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks For FanDuel, DraftKings - Patriots vs. Chargers Showdown (Week 17)

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Thursday night's game was an absolute disaster. I don't think anyone saw that there wasn't going to be a single touchdown scored in that game. Hopefully, we can bounce back with this game that has some playoff implications. The LA Chargers (9-6) need a win to lock in a playoff spot but […]

Matthew Wright To Kick For Titans In Week 17

The Tennessee Titans will add kicker Matthew Wright from their practice squad to their active 53-man roster for Sunday's game against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 17. Regular placekicker Nick Folk (abdomen) has been ruled out yet again, so the Titans will go with Wright after cutting Brayden Narveson earlier this week. While Wright, […]

Nick Folk Unavailable For Week 17

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) has been ruled out for the Week 17 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Folk hasn't been able to practice this week due to an abdominal issue which will force him to miss his second straight game. The expectation is that Matthew Wright will be elevated from the practice squad […]

Greg Zuerlein Returning For Week 17

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein (knee) will be back in action for the Week 17 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Zuerlein hasn't played since being placed on the injured reserve after suffering a knee injury in Week 8. Before that, Zuerlein was struggling as he has only converted 9-of-15 field goal attempts while making […]

Wil Lutz Looking To Keep Perfect Streak Alive Versus Bengals

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz enters the team's Week 17 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday on a streak of five straight games without missing a single kick. Since having a potential game-winning field goal blocked against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 10, Lutz has made all 11 of his field-goal attempts […]

Chad Ryland Outside Starting Range In Week 17

For at least another week, Chad Ryland will maintain the starting kicker role with the Arizona Cardinals, but managers should still look for another option with the Cards playing the Los Angeles Rams in Week 17. The second-year kicker has filled in nicely for the injured Matt Prater (knee), connecting on 25 of 29 field-goal […]

Joey Slye Not A Factor As Fantasy Playoffs Continue

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye should be avoided in fantasy football ahead of Saturday's Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Slye ranks 24th among kickers in fantasy points this year, and he has gone just 1-for-2 on field goals over his last two contests. Opportunities have been somewhat hard to come by […]

Cameron Dicker Looks For Another Strong Game In Week 17

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker will look for another strong game in a Week 17 matchup against the New England Patriots. Dicker has been a top-five fantasy kicker this season and there's no reason to think he won't end up with a top-10 finish in this game. With the Chargers favored over the Patriots, […]

Titans Add Matthew Wright To Practice Squad

The Tennessee Titans signed free-agent kicker Matthew Wright to their practice squad on Thursday. Nick Folk (abdomen) has not practiced this week and is danger of missing another game in Week 17 when the team takes on the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars. Brayden Narveson filled in at kicker in the Week 16 loss to the Indianapolis […]

Joshua Karty A Mid-Level Kicker Against Arizona

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts last week and 1-for-2 on extra-point attempts, but this week, he'll be in much more favorable conditions at home and kicking against the Cardinals, who have been a top-10 matchup for kickers this season. On the year, the rookie from Stanford is 23-for-28 on […]

Matt Prater Ruled Out For Saturday Night's Game

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (knee) was limited in practice all week but was ruled out on Friday for the team's Week 17 divisional contest against the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday night. Prater had his 21-day practice window opened to return from Injured Reserve last weekend and has been limited in six practices. However, […]

Nick Folk Sidelined Again On Thursday

According to Turron Davenport of ESPN, Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) did not practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Folk did not suit up last weekend and is in danger of missing his second-straight contest. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status on Friday in case he is able to […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks For FanDuel, DraftKings - Seahawks vs. Bears TNF Showdown (Week 17)

Welcome back, RotoBallers! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and made some dough on the Christmas slate. The grind doesn't stop, however, as we have a big game for the Seahawks as they are still fighting for a playoff spot. The Seattle Seahawks (8-7) travel to Soldier Field to take on the Chicago Bears […]

Chris Boswell Quiet On Christmas Day

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell was successful on both his lone field goal attempt and lone extra-point try of a 29-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Boswell was good from 36 yards out in the third quarter but was otherwise not asked to do much as Pittsburgh's offense struggled to move the ball on […]

Jason Myers A Solid Kicker In Week 17

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is a solid option in Week 17 against the Chicago Bears. The Seahawks should be in plenty of great positions to score this week. In Week 16 against the Minnesota Vikings, Myers missed his first field goal since Week 5. That came on a 60-yard attempt. Myers has been primarily […]

Matt Prater Limited In Practice Tuesday

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (left knee) was limited in practice on Tuesday. Prater was recently designated to return from injured reserve and has been practicing in his 21-day window for the past week. Prater has not played since Week 4, so it is no surprise that the Cardinals are easing the 40-year-old back into […]

Harrison Butker Could Be More Involved Against The Steelers In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Butker had a great bounce-back game last week against the Texans, nailing both field goal attempts and all three extra-point attempts. The Chiefs kicker should have the opportunity to build on that solid performance against a tough Steelers defense. If the […]

Cairo Santos Not A Viable Streaming Option In Week 17

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos should not be viewed as a viable streaming option on Thursday evening when the Bears host the Seattle Seahawks. Last weekend, Santos went 1-for-1 on attempts and 2-for-2 on extra points during their loss to the Detroit Lions. Over the past four weeks, Santos has only attempted two or more […]

Jets Sign Greg Joseph To Practice Squad

The New York Jets signed kicker Greg Joseph to their practice squad, according to Joseph's agent, Brett Tessler. The veteran is now on his fifth team of the season after spending training camp with Green Bay, briefly signing with Detroit's practice squad, and then having stints with the New York Giants and Washington Commanders. Jets […]
