Another Limited Practice For Matt Prater

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (hip) was limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Prater has missed the team's last three games, but he's trending in the right direction and could have a chance to kick this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings. If he makes his return in Week 8, […]

Cade York A Decent Fantasy Option In Week 8

Cleveland Browns kicker Cade York will take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8's Monday night game. York has been up-and-down in 2022, having hit 13 of his 16 field goals and 15 of his 17 extra points in seven games. The rookie kicker draws an excellent matchup against a Cincinnati defense that is allowing […]

Brett Maher A Solid Option In Week 8

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher will be a solid fantasy kicking option like usual in a Week 8 game against the Chicago Bears. Maher has four top-seven fantasy kicker finishes so far this season, and in fantasy football's most unpredictable position, he's developed a solid floor and a nice ceiling to go with it. With […]

Greg Zuerlein A Solid Option For Week 8 Lineups

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein is once again a solid option for fantasy lineups in Week 8. The Jets will take on the New England Patriots, who have allowed some of the bigger weeks to opposing kickers this season. Zuerlein has been a top-15 fantasy kicker in five of the seven weeks of the […]

Ryan Succop A Borderline Top-Five Option Against Ravens

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop has been one of the most reliable kickers in fantasy this season. The veteran has converted 16-of-17 field goal attempts while going a perfect 8-for-8 in extra-point tries. Tampa Bay's offense struggled to move against the Panthers last Sunday and managed just three points. Thursday's over/under between the Ravens […]

Matt Prater Remains Day-To-Day

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (hip) is day-to-day with a hip injury. He has been sidelined since Week 4 due to a hip issue. According to Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury, there could be a situation where Prater only kicks field goals, and Rodrigo Blankenship takes kickoffs. The Cardinals "will be cautious with it at […]

Wil Lutz A Mid-Range Option In Week 8

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz will take on the Las Vegas Raiders at home in Week 8. The veteran kicker has been inconsistent in 2022, hitting 11 of his 15 field goals and all 16 of his extra points. That being said, he has heated up of late as he has made all seven […]

Chris Boswell Makes 45-Yard Field Goal In Week 7

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell made his lone field goal, a 45-yarder, in a 16-10 loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. He added an extra point in his lone attempt in the loss on Sunday night. Boswell has now made 12 of his 16 field goals and all nine of his extra points […]

Brandon McManus Falls Flat In Week 7 Loss

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus turned out to be a bust as a fantasy streamer in the 16-9 Week 7 loss to the New York Jets. His day started off on a bad note when he missed his only extra-point try, and he made just one of his two field-goal attempts on the season to […]

Robbie Gould Makes All Three Field-Goal Attempts

San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould hit both extra points and all three field goals he attempted, including a 50-yarder, in the Niners' 23-44 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He ranks as the K2 at the end of Sunday. It was the most field goals Gould has made all season, the most he has […]

Taylor Bertolet Connects On Three Extra Points In Week 7

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Taylor Bertolet was successful on all three of his extra-point tries in the team's Week 7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Daniel Carlson Perfect In Week 7

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson made all six of his kicks in a 38-20 win over the Houston Texans in Week 7. Carlson only attempted one field goal on the day but it was a 50-yard attempt. He also knocked through all five extra points as the Raiders offense was efficient in the red […]

Evan McPherson Not Involved Much In Win

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson didn't attempt a field goal during the win over the Atlanta Falcons. With Joe Burrow throwing for nearly 500 yards on Sunday, McPherson was only needed to make five extra points. With that said, fantasy managers should continue starting the 23-year-old in Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns, as he […]

Mason Crosby Hits Three Extra Points In Week 7

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby connected on all three of his extra point attempts during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders in Week 7.

Cade York Makes Two Field Goals In Week 7 Loss

Cleveland Browns kicker Cade York made two of his three field goals and two extra points in a 23-20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. York made field goals from 41 and 37 yards while missing a potential game-tying 60-yarder in the fourth quarter. The rookie kicker has now made 13 of 16 […]

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein made all four of his kicks in a Week 7 win over the Denver Broncos. "Greg the Leg" made three field goals and one extra point, providing 10 of the 16 points the Jets scored in the victory. Zuerlein had a rough Week 1, but he's been one of […]

Ryan Succop Makes Only Field-Goal Attempt In Loss

Tampa Bay kicker Ryan Succop converted his only field goal attempt in Sunday's 21-3 loss to the Carolina Panthers. He drilled his only shot from 27-yards in the Week 7 loss. Tampa Bay's offense struggled to move the ball on Sunday and turned the ball over twice while inside the Panthers' territory, limiting Succop's scoring […]

Younghoe Koo Makes Only Field-Goal Attempt

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo made his only field goal attempt in the 35-17 Week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran had an excellent matchup this week as Cincinnati surrendered the most fantasy points to kickers this season. However, the Atlanta offense struggled and scored only 17 points in the game, their second-lowest […]

Riley Patterson Makes Lone Field-Goal Attempt In Week 7 Loss

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Riley Patterson converted the only field-goal attempt he had in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the New York Giants. While the second-year kicker made the lone field-goal attempt he had, he had his lone extra-point try blocked. The Jaguars had another opportunity for the Memphis product to kick an extra point, but the […]

Brett Maher Makes A Field Goal And Three Extra Points

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher made all four of his kicks in a Week 7 win over the Detroit Lions. He nailed three extra points and kicked a field goal from 22 yards out. It was a relatively quiet game for Maher, as the Cowboys had little trouble moving the ball and didn't have drives […]

Michael Badgley Makes Both Field-Goal Attempts

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley connected on field goal attempts of 53 and 40 yards, so he'll likely hang on to the Lions' place-kicking job after some doubt that would happen. However, the Lions' offense has failed to score touchdowns in each of its last two games, so Badgley's ceiling might not be high if […]

Eddy Pineiro Drills Three Extra Points In Week 7

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro connected on all three of his extra-point attempts in a Week 7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Pineiro was not asked to kick a single field goal in this one as the Panthers offense was surprisingly able to find the end zone three times. Although he has been consistent […]

Randy Bullock Kicks Four Field Goals In Win

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock connected on field goals of 48, 38, 28, and 27 yards to deliver a strong fantasy performance in the win over the Indianapolis Colts.

Michael Badgley Elevated From Practice Squad

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley has been elevated from the practice squad ahead of Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys. Badgley kicked for the Chicago Bears three weeks ago, going 4-for-4, but he was held off the scoreboard during his Lions debut the week after. Clearly, Badgley has been bouncing around and is looking to […]

Justin Tucker May Be More Involved In Week 7

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker only attempted three field goals in the first three weeks of the season. However, with Lamar Jackson and the offense struggling as of late, the 32-year-old has nine tries in the last three games, making all but one. With J.K. Dobbins (knee) out and Rashod Bateman (foot) questionable, the offense […]

Evan McPherson A Solid Option Versus Atlanta

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson remains one of the league's best. While the 23-year-old has missed a few tries, he has nailed four field goals of 50 yards or longer, tying him for the second-best total this season. With the Bengals predicted to have no issues getting down the field against the Falcons defense in […]
