Chase McLaughlin Added to Injury Report, Expects to Play

Saturday, October 4, 11:05 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin (illness) was added to the injury report late in the week, but he carries no game designation and is fully expected to play against the Seattle Seahawks. McLaughlin has been productive through four weeks, hitting nine of 12 field goal attempts, including a 65-yarder against Philadelphia in Week 4. While his 75% field goal percentage ranks just 26th in the league, the Buccaneers' explosive offense has kept him busy, and he currently sits fifth among kickers in fantasy points. With Tampa Bay traveling to Seattle for what projects to be a close matchup, McLaughlin should once again see multiple scoring opportunities. Fantasy managers should treat him as a must-start option in Week 5.

Brandon Aubrey Projects as Top Kicker Option Against Jets

Saturday, October 4, 11:53 AM

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey will look to continue his electric pace in Week 5 against the New York Jets. Aubrey remains perfect on the season, making all nine of his field goal attempts and all 11 extra points. He currently ranks second among all kickers in fantasy points (12.3), trailing only Colts kicker Spencer Shrader. The Cowboys face the Jets in Week 5, who have allowed the most fantasy points to kickers so far in 2025. With Dallas' offense rolling and Aubrey's accuracy shining, the third-year kicker projects as the top option at his position this week.
