Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin has been a fairly reliable option through the first two weeks of the season. He had a field goal blocked during the second quarter of the Week 2 win over the Chicago Bears. Outside of that, McLaughlin has been perfect, which is great to see. However, McLaughlin hasn't seen many field goal chances this season, which is hurting his fantasy value. It probably isn't going to get any easier versus the tough Philadelphia Eagles defense in Week 3. Fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option for Week 3.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin was given a chance to win the starting gig in camp after an impressive season in 2022. McLaughlin did enough to earn himself the starting kicker position to begin the season in Tampa Bay. He knocked down both his field goal attempts during the season opener. He took a bit of a step back on Sunday versus the Chicago Bears. McLaughlin made 2-of-3 field goal attempts in the victory over Chicago. His longest attempt of the game was 26 yards, so he really wasn't asked to stretch his leg in this one. McLaughlin also connected on all his extra point attempts as well. He seems to be a fairly reliable kicker, but the Bucs offense has tougher challenges ahead. McLaughlin won't be a recommended option against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 3.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin won the kicking competition during camp and opens the season as the starter. The 27-year-old outlasted Rodrigo Blankenship with a stellar showing in the final preseason game. McLaughlin knocked down 30-of-36 field goal attempts for an impressive 83.3% last season with the Indianapolis Colts. He appears to be a reliable kicking option, but his fantasy value will be tied to the success of this offense. An offensive unit that is lead by newcomer Baker Mayfield. There could certainly be a learning curve here for this offense, so there might not be a ton of success right away. That being said, fantasy managers should be able to find another kicker with a better offense to start the season.
