Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos is a solid fantasy option for Week 8 against the Washington Commanders. Although he missed his only field goal attempt last week against the Jaguars, he did convert all five of his extra points. The Bears' offense is expected to perform well against Washington this Sunday, providing Santos with several kicking opportunities. However, his fantasy value is limited, as the offense has been so effective that they often score touchdowns instead of relying on field goals. While more attractive options may be available, you can comfortably include Santos in your lineup if needed.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro has found himself at the bottom of fantasy kickers even though it hasn't been his fault. Pineiro has converted on every field and extra point so far, but he's only attempted one field goal in each game and one extra point overall. The Panthers' offense has been abysmal as they haven't even been able to get into field goal range let alone find the end zone at even an average rate. While their quarterback swap may alleviate some of those woes, Pineiro is better left on the bench or the waiver wire until the offense proves it can move the ball down the field. To put things into perspective, Pineiro only has four more fantasy points than Matt Gay and five more than Spencer Shrader, both of whom have only appeared in one game.
