Anders Carlson News
Wednesday, June 18, 12:31 PM
The New York Jets released kicker Anders Carlson on Wednesday and signed kicker Harrison Mevis in a corresponding move, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Mevis made 20 of his 21 field-goal attempts (95.2%) this year while playing for the UFL's Birmingham Stallions. Carlson, 27, is the younger brother of Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson. The Auburn product hasn't been as good as his older brother in the NFL, though, making 83.3% of his 48 field-goal tries since entering the league in 2023 with the Green Bay Packers. He went 13-for-15 on his field goals and 12-for-15 on extra points in seven games in 2024 with the San Francisco 49ers and the Jets. Carlson will now look for another team to sign with before training camp. Mevis will be competing with Caden Davis for the starting kicking job this summer.

Will Reichard News
Friday, September 18, 12:25 PM
Coming off a solid but unremarkable Week 1, Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard is a mid-range fantasy option as his team prepares to play the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The Bears' defense allowed 37 points at Carolina last week, though Minnesota faces some uncertainty at quarterback as backup Carson Wentz prepares to start with Kyler Murray (concussion) already ruled out for Week 2. For his part, Reichard played well in Week 1, connecting on all four of his extra points and a 38-yard field goal in the Vikings' comeback win against Green Bay. An All-Pro last season, the Alabama alum has turned into one of the NFL's top kickers, so he warrants consideration in almost every game, but managers patrolling the waiver wire might be able to find a stronger play elsewhere this week.
