Browns Tender a Contract to Andre Szmyt

Wednesday, March 4, 12:00 PM

The Cleveland Browns announced on Wednesday that they tendered a contract to exclusive-rights free-agent kicker Andre Szmyt, among others. In his first year in the NFL, Szmyt made 24 of his 27 field-goal tries and missed just one of his 26 extra-point attempts in 17 games played in Cleveland. The 27-year-old will return to Cleveland for the 2026 season and should be expected to open the regular season as their starting placekicker. Szmyt was dependable for the Browns as a rookie, but he was only the No. 26 kicker in terms of overall fantasy points in a Browns offense that didn't create many scoring opportunities. Szmyt averaged only 5.7 fantasy points per game. He was named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week in Week 3 in 2025. Szmyt is a solid young kicker, but in 12-team fantasy leagues, you can find better, higher-ceiling options at the position.

Ben Sauls News

Ben Sauls signed to the Giants Practice Squad

Tuesday, November 11, 9:27 AM

Free agent kicker Ben Sauls is signing with the New York Giants' practice squad this Tuesday. The Giants have had issues at kicker with Graham Gano suffering a neck injury that kept him out of the Week 10. Gano also spent time on injured reserve with a groin injury earlier this year. Last week, Younghoe Koo made both of his field goal and extra point attempts. Sauls had a strong college career at Pitt, making 81.3% of field goal attempts (52-of-64) and 98.4% of his extra points (122-of-124). The addition of Sauls gives the Giants three kickers on their practice squad, with Sauls, Koo, and Jude McAtamney as candidates to be promoted for Sunday's game if Gano is out.
