Who Should I Start? Cam Little or Jude McAtamney

Saturday, January 4, 12:09 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little should have at least a decent outing in the final week of the season against the Indianapolis Colts. The rookie kicker has had a solid season overall and will look to finish his first season strong. Along with many other players on the team, this game is more about auditioning for next season for Little. After a big offensive outburst for the New York Giants last week against the Colts, the Jaguars offense could be in for a similar outing in what is a similarly built offense currently. That could mean plenty of kicking opportunities for Little, who has proven he has the leg and accuracy to be a solid kicker long-term and in fantasy. Little has surprising upside compared to previous weeks in Week 18.

New York Giants kicker Jude McAtamney is a risky option in Week 6, offering a low floor for the Thursday night matchup against the Eagles. In his two starts this season, the international kicker has scored nine fantasy points, making 2 of 2 field goals (long of 31 yards) and 3 of 3 extra points, but he failed to register a single field goal attempt in Week 5. The Giants' implied total for this game is one of the lowest of the week, and the Philadelphia defense ranks 30th in fantasy points allowed to kickers (11.4 FPTS/G), which suggests the Eagles are an ideal opponent to generate scoring opportunities. Despite his perfect 100% field goal percentage this season, the Giants' struggling offense will likely keep McAtameny's attempts down, making him a bench option until the offense proves capable of moving the ball reliably.
