Matt Ammendola Signs With Cardinals Practice Squad

The Arizona Cardinals have signed kicker Matt Ammendola to their practice squad as some insurance with Matt Prater (hip) dealing with a hip injury that caused him to leave Week 4 prematurely.

Brandon McManus Disappoints In Week 4

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus only scored five fantasy points in the Week 4 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday on the road. In the 32-23 loss, McManus made his lone field-goal attempt from 28 yards out while missing one of his three extra-point tries on the day. It's now back-to-back poor fantasy […]

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker nailed both of his field goals during the loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 4. He also made both of his extra-point attempts.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro was successful on his only field goal attempt and one extra-point try in a 26-16 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made his lone field goal attempt from 28 yards out and hit two of his three extra points attempts during the team's 29-21 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (hip) made both of his field goal attempts before leaving with a hip injury in the team's 26-16 win over the Panthers in Week 4.

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher had a huge game in a Week 4 win over the Washington Commanders. Maher made all four of his field goal kicks and his one extra point, including a long field goal of 53 yards. With the Cowboys offense moving the ball fairly well but struggling to get it into […]

Dominik Eberle Misses Two Extra Points

Detroit Lions kicker Dominik Eberle stepped up for an injured Austin Seibert (groin) and missed two extra points in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Eberle will likely be replaced even if Seibert misses Week 5, so any fantasy managers that pivoted to him as a last-second streamer can drop him. When Seibert returns, he's […]

Riley Patterson Doesn't Attempt Field Goal In Week 4 Loss

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Riley Patterson didn't have a field goal attempt in a 29-21 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 4.

Randy Bullock Perfect On Kicks In Win

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock converted all three of his extra point attempts and nailed his lone field goal attempt in the win against the Indianapolis Colts.

Matt Prater Active In Week 4

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (hip) is officially active for Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers.

Wil Lutz Misses Long Kick In Loss

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz connected on both of his extra points against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4.

Greg Joseph Makes Career-High Five Field Goals

Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph came up huge in the team's 25-23 win as the 28-year-old connected on all five of his field goal attempts. His missed extra-point attempt proved to be costly, but Joseph made up for it in a big way as he connected on the game-winning field goal with just 24 seconds […]

Cairo Santos Out For Week 4

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos (personal) won't suit up for the Week 4 matchup against the New York Giants. He missed back-to-back practices this week due to a personal issue.

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos (personal) has been downgraded to out ahead of Week 4 against the New York Giants.

Ryan Succop A Top-Five Option In Week 4

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop has converted eight of nine field goal attempts and is perfect 3-for-3 in extra-point tries in 2022. The 36-year-old is one of the most reliable kickers and has tallied 27 points this season. He will look to keep things going against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4. Sunday's […]

Daniel Carlson A Solid Start In Week 4

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has been perfect to start the 2022 season after finishing as the best fantasy kicker in 2021. Although the Denver Broncos' defense has looked stout through three weeks, Derek Carr and the Raiders' offense will likely be its toughest test yet in Week 4. A fair amount of points […]

Week 4 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We're through three weeks of the NFL season, but we'll never get to a place where we can ignore the streamer game at the kicker position in fantasy football.
