Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus looks to keep his solid run going in Week 2 as the Packers host the Washington Commanders on Thursday Night Football. McManus kicked two field goals from 38 and 34 yards out and converted all three of his extra point attempts in Week 1 as the Packers beat the Lions 27-19. In the regular season, McManus has missed just one kick in his Packers' career, so he's been reliable. Given that the Packers are on a trajectory to be one of the upper-echelon teams in the NFL, McManus should get plenty of opportunities in the future for Green Bay. He's startable in leagues with a kicker slot if you didn't get one of the top kickers in your draft.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in Week 2. This Super Bowl rematch could prove beneficial for Butker's fantasy relevance because of the strong Eagles defense. If the Kansas City offense is unable to complete drives, Butker could be asked to pick up the points with his leg. The veteran kicker knocked through all three of his field goal attempts in their Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, but ultimately missed the extra point attempt following a rushing touchdown from Patrick Mahomes in the third quarter. Butker has been one of the most consistent kickers in the league since his debut, and he will hope to continue the trend in Week 2. Butker is ranked K13 in our RotoBaller rankings this week, making him a fringe starter in a 12-team league.
