Brandon McManus Questionable to Play in Week 8

Friday, October 24, 6:49 PM

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (quad) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 8 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. McManus has been limited in practice for each of the last two games. He has missed the last two games, but is hopeful to play this weekend. Lucas Havrisik has been the starting kicker in his place over the last two weeks. The 26-year-old has been perfect on all his kicks and could be a possible streaming option if McManus remains sidelined for a third straight week.

Chris Boswell A Top-10 Fantasy Option Against Packers

Saturday, October 25, 1:59 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell drilled all four of his extra-point tries and converted his lone field goal in a Week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He should be equally, if not more, involved in a Week 8 showdown with the Green Bay Packers. Sunday night's contest is expected to be a closely contested, moderately high-scoring affair. Green Bay has been solid defensively this season and has done a good job keeping opponents out of the end zone, surrendering the eighth-fewest touchdowns per contest. That should set up additional field-goal opportunities for Boswell, who remains a steady fantasy option at home. The 34-year-old comes in at No. 10 in RotoBaller's kicker rankings this week and should remain in starting lineups.
