Who Should I Start? Brandon McManus or Tyler Loop

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (right quad) has been added to the injury report and listed as doubtful to play in his team's Week 11 matchup against the New York Giants. McManus has been playing through the quad injury for a few weeks, but it appears he may have taken a turn for the worse heading into Week 11. If he is unable to go on Sunday, backup kicker Lucas Havrisik appears likely to take over kicking duties for Green Bay. The Packers have been one of the rare teams to carry two kickers on their 53-man roster with McManus playing through injury. Havrisik has appeared in two games this season and converted on all four of his field goal attempts.

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop finished as the K2 in Week 10 despite missing one of his five field goal attempts against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie made four of them from 44, 28, 30, and 22 yards away while knocking through his only extra point attempt. He's now 16-for-18 overall on the season and 23-for-24 on extra points. The Ravens take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 11 after they went for 41 points against them in Week 2. In that game, Loop finished as the K8, and could very well finish even higher now that the team has even more trust in him. Fantasy managers can comfortably start Loop this week as he projects to be a K1 yet again.
