Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus was perfect on the day as the Packers won in Jacksonville against the Jaguars 30-27. McManus nailed all three of his field goal attempts on the afternoon, nailing kicks from 31, 36, and 24. That 24-yarder was the game winner for the Packers as they got down deep into Jaguars' territory thanks to a 51-yard reception by Jayden Reed and a short run by Chris Brooks where he got into first-down territory inside the five-yard line but slowed down before scoring. McManus also was perfect on the day with his extra point attempts as McManus converted all three. The Packers will host the division-leading Detroit Lions in Week 9, where McManus is a solid kicking streamer in a healthy offensive environment.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8. Butker knocked through all four extra-point attempts in Week 7 against the San Francisco 49ers. The Chiefs kicker did not attempt a field goal in last week's contest. From a fantasy perspective, Butker's performance was poor, but he made every kick he was asked to make. Butker should be more involved in this week's scoring against the Raiders. If the Chiefs pull out to an early lead, I suspect their offensive game plan will lean risk-averse. The Chiefs could settle for field goals in this contest instead of pushing the envelope for touchdowns. Whatever the game script turns out to be, Butker should attempt at least one field goal this week and surpass his total from last week. Butker is ranked as the sixth-best kicker in our RotoBaller rankings this week, landing him firmly in the start category.
