New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph will look to rebound in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles after a disappointing Week 6 where he missed both of his field goal attempts, potentially costing the Giants a chance to stay competitive in their 17-7 loss to the Bengals. Joseph has struggled with consistency this season, hitting just 72.7% of his field goals and missing three from the 40-49 yard range. For Joseph to make a fantasy impact, he'll need to capitalize on every opportunity moving forward as starter Graham Gano may be returning soon from injury.

New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph continued his perfect streak in Sunday's 29-20 victory over the Seattle Seahawks, going 3-for-3 on field goals for the second straight week. Joseph drilled a long of 38 yards and added two extra points, contributing 11 total points to the Giants' win. His reliability on special teams has been crucial, as he remains flawless through two weeks, consistently converting his opportunities. With his 100% field goal percentage intact from the past two games, Joseph is shaping up as a strong fantasy kicker option, especially for teams seeking steady production.

New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph will enter Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks riding some momentum after making all five of his field goal attempts in last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys, including a long of 52 yards. Through two games this season, Joseph is 2-for-2 on PATs and has yet to miss a field goal. However, he faces a tough Seattle defense that ranks eighth against kickers, allowing just six field goals through four games. With the Giants' offense struggling to convert drives into touchdowns, Joseph may be called upon for multiple field goal attempts again, making him a solid streaming option for fantasy managers.
Oct 4, 2024 11:43 PM EST
New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph was the team's lone source of offense in Thursday night's 20-15 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, nailing all five of his field goal attempts. Joseph was perfect on the night, including a 52-yard strike, accounting for all 15 of the Giants' points. While the Giants' offense struggled to find the end zone, Joseph's consistency kept them within striking distance throughout the game. Fantasy managers relying on Joseph were rewarded with a strong performance, but the lack of offense from the Giants and the eventual return of Graham Gano may limit his opportunities in future matchups.

New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph heads into Week 4 after scoring only three extra points in the 21-15 win over the Browns. In his first game as a New York Giant, Joseph missed the only field goal he attempted from 48 yards out. Facing the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4, he is looking to make a more significant impact on the game as he tries to hold on to a roster spot. Managers will want to look to other teams, as Joseph is just a placeholder until Graham Gano returns.
Sep 25, 2024 2:04 AM EST
New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph will remain the starter in Week 4 against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday Night Football, according to head coach Brian Daboll. Stellar kicker Graham Gano (hamstring) is sidelined with a hamstring injury, so Joseph will get another shot. The veteran missed his lone field goal try against the Cleveland Browns in Week 3, but he connected on all three of his extra-point attempts. Joseph has been good at times throughout his career, but he's not anywhere near the fantasy football radar this week.
Sep 24, 2024 2:08 PM EST
New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph enters Week 3 against the Cleveland Browns with an opportunity to deliver fantasy value after being picked up off the Detroit Lions practice squad. At this time, Joseph might not even be the kicker that dresses against the Browns as he is competing with Jude McAtamney, who is also on the practice roster. The veteran has played 67 regular-season games for three teams with an 82.6 field goal percentage and a long of 61 yards. Keep an eye on who will be dressed for Sunday's matchup.
Sep 21, 2024 12:55 AM EST
The New York Giants are signing veteran kicker Greg Joseph to their active roster on Tuesday from the Detroit Lions' practice squad, according to his agent. Regular Giants kicker Graham Gano (hamstring) was injured early in the Week 2 loss to the division-rival Washington Commanders and will miss a "few weeks," prompting the Giants to add Joseph to their roster this week. Gano's injury ended up being big for the G-Men on Sunday, as punter Jamie Gillan missed his lone extra-point try and the Giants failed on their two two-point conversion tries in what ended up being a three-point loss. Joseph now seems likely to kick for New York in Week 3 against the Cleveland Browns and then probably also the following Thursday night in Week 4 against the Dallas Cowboys. Joseph lost the kicking battle in Green Bay in training camp and has made 82.6% of his career kicks in five seasons. It's best to avoid him in Week 3.
Sep 17, 2024 4:04 PM EST
The Detroit Lions signed kicker Greg Joseph to the practice squad on Tuesday. Joseph spent the offseason with the Green Bay Packers but was cut at the conclusion of the preseason. The Lions have second-year player Jake Bates on their roster as the current starter. He connected with all four of his kicks on Sunday night against the Rams. The addition of Joseph to the practice squad may have simply been a depth move by the Lions.
Sep 10, 2024 6:43 PM EST
Green Bay Packers kicker Greg Joseph was solid in his final preseason game, making both field goal attempts and kicking home an extra point in the Packers' 30-7 win against the Baltimore Ravens. Joseph made a 36-yard attempt in the beginning of the second quarter, nailed a PAT in the third quarter, and then with just under two minutes left in the fourth quarter, drilled a 55-yard attempt. Joseph is in a tough kicking competition with incumbent starter Anders Carlson, but the race is a bit close to call at this moment. The Packers wanted to give Carlson some legitimate competition and Joseph, last season's kicker for the Minnesota Vikings, was just that throughout camp. Wait and see before drafting either kicker in fantasy, but whoever wins the Packers' job should have decent value given how powerful the Packers' offense is.

Green Bay Packers kickers Greg Joseph and Anders Carlson are in a competition for the starting job in 2024 after the team cut rookie James Turner last week. Carlson, a sixth-round pick last year, struggled at the end of his first year in the NFL, included a missed 41-yard field goal late in the Divisional Round loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It's been a close competition between the two in training camp, but ESPN's Rob Demovsky writes that Joseph has a slight advantage through the early portion based solely on the numbers. Joseph had made 36 of 40 field goals, while Carlson was 33-for-40. Carlson's only miss at practice last Saturday was from 57 yards out, though. Head coach Matt LaFleur anticipates the kicking competition playing out throughout the preseason, so Carlson has time to flip the script.
Aug 8, 2024 1:41 PM EST
Green Bay Packers kicker Greg Joseph has been outperforming returning starter Anders Carlson thus far in camp. Joseph is connecting on kicks at a 94% clip (29-of-31), including 7-for-7 at Thursday's practice, while Carlson has hit just 81% of his total attempts (25-of-31). This is a significant development as the Packers ranked 12th last season in points per game and project to be better this year with another year of growth for Jordan Love. Whoever holds the starting kicker position for Green Bay is sure to provide substantial value for fantasy managers this coming fall. Joseph is RotoBaller's K20, and Carlson was the K24 in 2023. There is an excellent chance for this ADP to be outperformed by one of these players while kicking for a rising Packers offense.
Aug 2, 2024 10:18 PM EST
The Green Bay Packers signed free-agent kicker Greg Joseph to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday, according to his agent, Brett Tessler. Joseph kicked for the division-rival Minnesota Vikings the last three seasons and holds the NFL record for game-winning kicks in a season (five) and the Vikings record for longest field goal (61 yards). The 29-year-old went 83-for-101 on his field goals and 112-for-124 on extra points during his time in Minnesota. In addition to Joseph, the Packers have last year's sixth-rounder, Anders Carlson, on their roster, but Carlson struggled mightily in his rookie season and could now be on his way out. Joseph finished the 2023 season as the No. 24 kicker in terms of overall fantasy points and should be on the streaming radar in 2024 with Green Bay.
Mar 26, 2024 2:14 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph will look to keep his perfect start to the season going in Week 5, as he has connected on both of his field goal attempts and all 12 extra-point attempts through four games. Although reliable when called upon, Joseph hasn't got much of an opportunity to put points on the board this year, and a matchup with the Chiefs could suggest more of the same. In what could be a game script where the Vikings battle from behind, there is the possibility that Joseph will continue to get limited opportunities to kick field goals. Fantasy managers should treat him as nothing more than a risky streaming option.
Oct 6, 2023 5:50 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph looks like a risky streaming option in Week 4 as the Vikings take on the Panthers. Joseph hasn't had many opportunities to kick through the first three games of the season, as he has only attempted two field goals, connecting on both of them. The 29-year-old has relied on extra-point attempts to save his fantasy production, but there could be reason to believe the Vikings will need to rely on him this week as the Panthers have had a solid pass defense so far this season. Fantasy managers should proceed with caution, but Joseph has shown the ability to be a reliable option in the past.
Sep 29, 2023 5:43 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph has the look of a solid streaming option in Week 3 as the Vikings take on the Chargers. He has only attempted one field goal this season, where he connected on a 25-yard kick, but a potential high-scoring matchup this Sunday should give him an opportunity to put points on the board for fantasy managers. Joseph can be treated as nothing more than a streaming option in conventional-sized formats.
Sep 22, 2023 5:19 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph's only action in Week 2 was limited to kicking the extra points following the team's four touchdowns. The fifth-year veteran was not given the chance to attempt a field goal in Thursday night's 34-28 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. In Week 3, the Vikings host the Los Angeles Chargers in what should be another high-scoring affair. Hopefully, the extra offense will provide Joseph the opportunity to make his second field goal attempt of 2023.
Sep 16, 2023 12:58 AM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph made his lone field goal, a 25-yarder, in a Week 1 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Joseph will now head on the road to face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2's Thursday night game. The Eagles were tough on fantasy kickers in 2022, allowing the third-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. The Vikings offense could struggle to move the ball on Thursday, leaving Joseph as a mediocre fantasy play in Week 2.
Sep 13, 2023 9:38 PM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph converted his lone field-goal attempt and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 29-year-old capped off a nine-play scoring drive with a boot from 25 yards out during the second period. Joseph represents a serviceable kicking option after making 78.8% of his FG chances in 2022, but fantasy managers might be able to find more enticing options across waiver wires. The fifth-year kicker should probably be bypassed in Week 2 lineups against the Eagles in Philadelphia on Thursday in a game Minnesota could be playing from behind.
Sep 11, 2023 12:59 AM EST
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph looks like a solid streaming option in Week 1 as the Vikings take on the Buccaneers at home. Joseph converted 26-of-33 field goals last year, but he wasn't all that reliable kicking from deep, as he converted just 4-of-10 from 50+ yards. However, fantasy managers can treat him as a streaming option due to the fact that he missed just one attempt that was inside 50 yards last season, as he converted 22-of-23 field goals that were within 20-49 yards.
