Who Should I Start? Brandon McManus or Joshua Karty

Friday, October 17, 9:33 PM

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (quad) is officially questionable for the Week 7 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. McManus is in danger of missing his second straight game due to a right quad injury. The veteran kicker hasn't practiced all week, which puts him in serious danger of missing another contest. Last week, Lucas Havrisik handled the kicking duties with McManus absent. He made both his field goal attempts and three extra point attempts in the win over the Cincinnati Bengals. It seems like the Packers are in good hands if McManus is unable to go.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty has struggled with field goals in recent weeks, and as a result, he has slipped off the fantasy radar heading into Week 7 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Karty is just 2-for-4 on field goals over his last two games, and he's 8-for-12 over his last four. He has just one made field goal from beyond 50 yards this year. Furthermore, he has missed two extra-point attempts. All in all, the results have been disappointing from Karty, who ranks as the overall K22 in his second pro season. It's not like Week 7 is a get-right opportunity for him, either. The Jaguars have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers in 2025. He should be left on waivers in most leagues.
