Who Should I Start? Brandon McManus or Harrison Butker

Friday, December 5, 4:30 PM

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus has been a hit-or-miss fantasy option this season, but he'll look to put his best foot forward as the Packers host the Chicago Bears in a Week 14 divisional showdown. McManus has made all of his kicks in the past two weeks, booting home all four field goal attempts and kicking all six of his extra points successfully. However, he's been just a fringe option for fantasy managers, finishing as a top-10 kicker in two of his nine games this season. The Packers should get plenty of opportunities to score, but the weather for their game looks to be very cold, with flurries also in the forecast. McManus is a low-end fantasy play this week against Chicago.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Houston Texans in Week 14. Butker made all nine of his field goal attempts from Weeks 10 -12, but did not get an opportunity to extend that streak in Week 13 against the Dallas Cowboys. Butker did not record a single field goal attempt on Thanksgiving, but he was perfect on his four extra-point attempts. The Chiefs kicker has improved his accuracy over the past few weeks, and he will need it if called upon against a tough Houston defense. If Kansas City has drives halted by the Texans, there could be field goal opportunities for Butker. That said, if the Chiefs do not drive into field goal range, kicking duties could be handed over to the punter. Butker is ranked K15 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a lower-end option this week.
