Who Should I Start? Anders Carlson or Tanner Brown

Monday, December 30, 9:21 PM

New York Jets kicker Anders Carlson has been waived by the organization on Monday. This doesn't come as a huge surprise given Greg Zuerlein (knee) was activated from the injured reserve over the weekend. Carlson was decent during his five games with the Jets. He connected on 8-of-10 field goals and missed two extra point attempts during his time in New York. The 26-year-old has decent potential, so we'll see if another team decides to scoop him up. Otherwise, Carlson will remain with Jets on their practice squad if he clears waivers.

The Los Angeles Rams signed kicker Tanner Browns to the practice squad on Tuesday, according to NFL.com. The 24-year-old went unselected in last year's NFL Draft out of Oklahoma State and has been on and off the L.A. roster since signing with the organization after the draft. Starting kicker Joshua Karty has made all three of his field goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries to begin the year, so it's unclear whether Brown will be given a chance to earn the starting role. Either way, the Rams offense is likely to struggle with Puka Nacua (knee), Cooper Kupp (foot), and several offensive linemen on the shelf, so he would not be an attractive fantasy kicker option if he plays anytime soon.
