Who Should I Start? Cairo Santos or Andy Borregales

Friday, October 17, 9:50 PM

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos (thigh) has been ruled out for the upcoming Week 7 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Santos will officially miss his second straight game due to a lingering thigh issue. Jake Moody will handle the kicking duties in Chicago for at least one more week. Moody made four of his five field goal attempts, including a game-winner during last week's win over the Washington Commanders. Moody should offer streaming value for fantasy managers in need of a kicker for this weekend.

New England Patriots kicker Andy Borregales has lacked fantasy appeal through the first six games of his NFL career, but he has emerged as a low-end streamer for Week 7 against the Tennessee Titans. Borregales has two factors working in his favor this Sunday. First of all, he has kicked quite well lately, going 10-for-10 on extra points and 4-for-4 on field goals over his last four games. The field goal sample size is relatively small, which has lowered his ceiling, but you can't gripe about a 100 percent accuracy rate. Second, the Patriots should find themselves in scoring position quite often against the Titans. Extra points may be more common than field goals, but still, volume is king, and Borregales should be busy on Sunday. Borregales ranks as the #16 kicker in RotoBaller's expert rankings, giving him low-end streaming appeal in deeper leagues.
