Austin Seibert Looks To Be Solid Streaming Option In Week 5

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert has remained perfect since moving to the DMV and has now entered streaming territory in Week 5. Seibert started his Washington career in an impressive manner, going 7-for-7 against the New York Giants. Over the past two weeks, Seibert has not been called upon as often, but still went a perfect 3-for-3 on attempts and 9-for-9 on extra points. The Commanders offense has looked quite impressive over the past two weeks and, as a result, has put Seibert in several scoring opportunities. The Commanders may struggle to find the end zone, facing a tough Cleveland Browns defense, making Seibert a sneaky streaming option.

Austin Seibert Remains Perfect As A Commander

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert continued his perfect streak as a Commander in Week 4 as he went 2-for-2 on attempts and 4-for-4 on extra points in Sunday's victory. Since joining the Commanders in Week 2, Seibert has hit ten field goals and nine extra points. While Seibert's leg has yet to be tested from 50+ yards out, his hot stretch makes him a favorable streaming candidate going forward. In addition, as the Washington offense continues to improve every week, Seibert should see regular attempts to put points on the board. He is shaping up to be a solid option in all formats next week as the Commanders return to the DMV to host the Cleveland Browns.

Austin Seibert A Potential Deep-League Streamer In Week 4

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert remained perfect through his Washington tenure on Monday night as he went 1-for-1 on field goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra points. In his Commanders debut in Week 2, Seibert scored all of their points in a divisional win over the Giants, going a remarkable 7-for-7 on field goal attempts. Even though Seibert has spent time on several teams during his five-year career, he may have found a new home in the DMV. Given that their game against the Cardinals holds a high 50-point total, Seibert should have plenty of opportunities to put points on the board, which makes him an intriguing streaming option in deeper formats.

Austin Seibert Looks To Stay Perfect On Monday

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert had one of the best debuts a kicker could have. In his first game in the DMV, Seibert went 7-for-7 on attempts, scoring every point in the victory over the New York Giants. Seibert's leg was not tested from too deep, as his longest kick was 45 yards. However, given the preseason and Week 1 struggles, having a stable kicker will greatly improve this offense. While the 27-year-old has bounced around several teams throughout his eight-year career, he may have found a new home and is worth a look as a streamer in deep 14+ team leagues in a game on Monday night that is projected to be high-scoring with a hefty 47 point spread.

Austin Seibert A Perfect 7-For-7 In Week 2

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert scored all of his team's points on Sunday afternoon as he went 7-for-7 on his field goal attempts. His longest was from 45 yards. This was a big improvement for the Washington offense, as Cam York missed both attempts last week. Earlier in the preseason, the Commanders had Riley Patterson on their roster, but he was eventually cut, given his troubles over the summer. Seibert has spent his NFL career bouncing from multiple teams but may have found his home in the DMV after his stellar debut. Seibert holds a mere 80.4% success rate throughout his career, but this could be just the scenery change he needed. Given the Commanders' inability to finish drives in the red zone, Seibert could become a potential streaming option as the season progresses but could have inconsistent performances, as the Washington offense is still a work in progress.

Austin Seibert To Make Washington Debut

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert will make his 2024 regular season debut as the Commanders recently cut ties with Week 1 starter Cam York. York missed two field goal attempts in the season opener and will hit the free-agent market. Seibert has played on several teams throughout his four-year NFL career and holds an 80.4% field goal mark. From 50+ yards, he has gone just 2-for-6. Seibert should not be relied on as a streamer, given his inconsistencies over the past few seasons. However, if the 27-year-old could establish himself in D.C., he could eventually grow into a deeper league streaming option.

Commanders Officially Sign Austin Seibert

The Washington Commanders officially signed free-agent kicker Austin Seibert to their active roster on Tuesday. The former fifth-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2019 has played in 31 games over his five-year NFL career and was most recently with the New York Jets in 2023. The move to add Seibert comes after the Commanders released Cade York, who missed both of his field-goal tries in the Week 1 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 27-year-old Seibert has made 80.4% of his 56 field-goal attempts in his time in the NFL while also making 90.3% of his 62 extra points in 31 total games for the Browns, Bengals, Lions and Jets. Seibert will immediately take over the starting kicking duties in D.C., beginning with a Week 2 matchup against the division-rival New York Giants. Fantasy managers already streaming kickers should look elsewhere.

Austin Seibert Signs With Saints Practice Squad

The New Orleans Saints signed veteran kicker Austin Seibert to their practice squad on Tuesday after Blake Grupe injured his groin during practice earlier in the day. Seibert appeared in one game for the New York Jets this season and has previously kicked for the Detroit Lions, Cincinnati Bengals, and Cleveland Browns. For now, the team is calling Grupe's injury minor but Seibert could get elevated from the practice squad for his team's Week 13 game against the Lions if Grupe isn't able to play through the groin issue.

Austin Seibert Hits Field Goal In Jets Debut

New York Jets kicker Austin Seibert drilled a 34-yard field goal and converted on his lone extra-point try in a 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Seibert filled in admirably for the injured Greg Zuerlein (groin) despite a limited number of opportunities. It's unclear if Zuerlein is expected to return to action in Week 3, but neither kicker will be an enticing fantasy option against the New England Patriots.
