Brett Maher A Strong Option In Week 10
Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is a strong option for fantasy lineups in a Week 10 game against the Green Bay Packers. Maher has the eighth most fantasy points at his position through the first eight games of the season, and with the Cowboys offense improving, that should easily go higher. Maher is now past […]
Daniel Carlson A Strong Fantasy Option Against The Colts
Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has been one of the most reliable kickers in fantasy this season. He is a perfect 18-for-18 in field goal attempts while converting 15-of-16 extra-point tries over eight games in 2022. The 27-year-old has tallied at least eight points in two of the last three games. He will look […]
Eddy Pineiro Will Seek Redemption Against Falcons
Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro converted on all three of his extra-point attempts last week after whiffing on two potential game-winning kicks in Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons. Pineiro will have his shot at revenge on Thursday night as the Panthers will once again take on their divisional foe. Although these same teams combined […]
Matthew Wright Signs, Chris Boswell Dealing With Injury
The Pittsburgh Steelers signed kicker Matthew Wright to the active 53-man roster from the Kansas City Chiefs practice squad on Wednesday, meaning Wright has to be on the roster for three games. It's bad news for Chris Boswell (groin), who is dealing with an injury. Boswell checks in as the No. 25 fantasy kicker this […]
Cameron Dicker Set To Kick Again In Week 10
Rookie Cameron Dicker is the Los Angeles Chargers kicker heading into Week 10, according to head coach Brandon Staley. With starter Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) out last week, Dicker drilled both of his extra-point tries and both of his field goal attempts, including a 37-yard game-winner as time expired. Hopkins still isn't practicing, so Dicker is […]
Allen Lazard, Mason Crosby Limited
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (shoulder) and kicker Mason Crosby (back) were both listed as limited in practice on Wednesday. Lazard missed Week 8 but returned to catch four of 10 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in the Week 9 loss to the Detroit Lions. He's basically the healthiest Packers receiver […]
Rondale Moore, Matt Prater Limited Wednesday
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore (hand) and kicker Matt Prater (hip) were both limited in Wednesday's practice. It doesn't sound like Moore's hand injury is serious. However, quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) also missed practice, so Moore's fantasy outlook would dim considerably if Colt McCoy or Trace McSorley were forced to start against the Los […]
Younghoe Koo A Risky Streamer This Week
Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo started the year on fire, scoring 12 or more fantasy points in three of the first four games. However, the veteran kicker has averaged only 5.6 fantasy points per game over the past five contests, scoring under seven fantasy points in all but one. While he scored 14 fantasy points […]
Robbie Gould A Top-10 Kicker In Week 10
San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould has been solid in 2022, having hit 10 of his 13 field goals and all 19 of his extra points in eight games. Gould will look to have a big evening at home in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers have been generous to opposing kickers […]
Wil Lutz A Decent Option Vs. Steelers In Week 10
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz was perfect in Week 9, hitting his lone field-goal attempt and both of his extra points in a loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Lutz will head on the road to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10. The Steelers have been solid against kickers in 2022, allowing the […]
Parks Frazier To Serve As Colts Play-Caller
Indianapolis Colts interim head coach Jeff Saturday is expected to have 30-year-old pass-game specialist/assistant quarterbacks coach Parks Frazier serve as the offensive play-caller, starting in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to sources. Frazier has the most experience of any offensive coach left on the staff after the team fired head coach Frank […]
Chris Ballard Expected To Return In 2023
Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay said "of course" he expects general manager Chris Ballard to return in 2023. Irsay called Ballard "a winner." Irsay also said last week that head coach Frank Reich's job was safe, but he went back on that and fired him on Monday after a 26-3 loss to the New England […]
Jeff Saturday Named Colts Interim Head Coach
The Indianapolis Colts are naming former six-time Pro Bowl center and ESPN analyst Jeff Saturday as their interim head coach on Monday after firing Frank Reich. Saturday has been a consultant for the team and is in its Ring of Honor. He was also the head coach for the Hebron Christian Academy football team in […]
Greg Zuerlein Makes Two Field Goals In Week 9
New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein made all four of his kicks in a Week 9 win over the Buffalo Bills. Zuerlein attempted two extra points and two field goals, nailing all four of his attempts. His field goals came from 53 and 28 yards out, with the latter proving to be the game winner. […]
Colts Fire Head Coach Frank Reich
The Indianapolis Colts fired head coach Frank Reich on Monday, according to sources. The move comes after the team's 26-3 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 9, the Colts' third straight loss. Indianapolis recently made the switch from veteran quarterback Matt Ryan to Sam Ehlinger and also fired offensive coordinator Marcus Brady last […]
Randy Bullock Makes All Three Kicks In Loss
Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock made his only field goal attempt and both of his extra point attempts in the 20-17 overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Titans' offense was shut down in the second half, so Bullock's scoring opportunities were hard to come by. Bullock has not been a high-upside fantasy kicker […]
Matt Gay Kicks Two Field Goals
Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay kicked two field goals and one extra point in the Rams' 13-16 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Gay made every kick he attempted. The Rams offense continues to struggle to move the ball. They have scored just three touchdowns in the past two games, so Gay does not […]
Cameron Dicker Kicks Game-Winner In Chargers Debut
Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker drilled both of his extra-point attempts and both of his field goal tries, including a game-winning 37-yarder, in a Week 9 bout with the Atlanta Falcons. With Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) and Taylor Bertolet (leg) injured, the Chargers signed Dicker, who had previously kicked for the Philadelphia Eagles in Week […]
Eddy Pineiro Connects On Three Extra Points In Week 9
Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro was successful on all three of his extra-point attempts in a blowout loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9. Pineiro struggled mightily in Week 8 and was not asked to kick a field goal on Sunday, but it appears that his job is safe for now. He remains an […]
Ryan Succop Drills Three Field Goals In Win Over Rams
Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop went 3-for-4 in field goal attempts while drilling his only extra-point try in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He connected from 20, 38, and 50 yards out in Sunday's victory. The 36-year-old has now tallied double-digit points in three of his last four games. He has […]
Jason Sanders Misses Short Field Goal
Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders missed his lone field goal attempt from 29 yards out during Sunday's win over the Chicago Bears. On a positive note, he went 5-for-5 on extra points. Despite Miami's strong offense, the 26-year-old falls just outside the top-12 fantasy kickers going forward.
Mason Crosby Hits Short Field Goal In Week 9
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby converted a 25-yard field goal during the team's 15-9 loss to the Detroit Lions. The Packers elected to go for two after their lone touchdown, making for a poor fantasy outing for the 38-year-old. This was Crosby's fourth game in a row scoring four fantasy points or fewer. The […]
Matt Prater Doesn't Attempt Field Goal In Week 9
Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater made all three of his extra-point attempts, as he failed to attempt a field goal for the third time this season. The veteran has been scripted out of games as the Cardinals continually play from behind, so he doesn't look like a reliable weekly starter moving forward. At best, he […]
Nick Folk Drills Four Field Goals In Win Over Colts
New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk went 4-for-4 in field goal attempts and converted two extra-point tries in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Indianapolis Colts. He hit field goal attempts from 49, 43, 43, and 28 yards out in Sunday's victory. The veteran has been red hot recently, going a perfect 9-for-9 over his last […]
Younghoe Koo Struggles Against Los Angeles
Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo struggled in the 20-17 Week 9 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The veteran kicker made his only field goal attempt from under 40 yards in the game. However, he missed another from beyond 50 yards. More importantly, Koo has scored under seven fantasy points in four of his past […]
Michael Badgley Makes Only Extra-Point Attempt
Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley posted just one fantasy point after he was only given one scoring opportunity on a lone extra point attempt. The Lions won against the Green Bay Packers with its defense and opted to go for a two-point conversion after its first touchdown. Since Dan Campbell likes to pass up field […]
Chase McLaughlin Makes One Field Goal In Week 9 Loss
Indianapolis Colts kicker Chase McLaughlin split field-goal attempts in the Colts' Week 9 loss to New England, hitting from 40 yards out and missing one from 39 yards. McLaughlin scored the only points for the Colts on Sunday, as the Patriots defense tormented quarterback Sam Ehlinger and the Colts offense all day. The Colts' borderline […]
Greg Joseph Makes Game-Winning Field Goal
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph made both of his field goal and extra point attempts in the team's 20-17 win over the Commanders. Joseph was able to connect on the game-winning chip-shot field goal, as he has continued to be a reliable option from within 50 yards this season. Moving forward, his fantasy value will […]
Week 9 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
The NFL season and fantasy football season continue to fly by, and with the fantasy playoffs not all that far away, start-or-sit decisions have never been more important. The Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, New York Giants Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers, and San Francisco 49ers all have kickers out of action on a bye, so […]
Cameron Dicker To Kick For Chargers In Week 9
The Los Angeles Chargers activated kicker Cameron Dicker from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday, and he will kick for the team in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons with Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) still sidelined. Dicker was just signed to the practice squad on Thursday. The 22-year-old rookie served as the Philadelphia […]
