Who Should I Start? Chase McLaughlin or Joshua Karty

Saturday, October 19, 9:02 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin has continued to be one of the most consistent options at his position this season. McLaughlin has connected on all 11 of his field goal attempts and missed just one PAT in 20 attempts. The Bucs continue to march down the field and give McLaughlin plenty of chances. He should continue getting opportunities in what looks like a possible shootout with the Baltimore Ravens. Fantasy managers in need of a kicker should look towards McLaughlin this weekend.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty has been limited by the Rams' offensive struggles without star wide receivers Puka Nacua (knee) and Cooper Kupp (ankle) on the field. This has resulted in Karty having among the fewest amount of kicks in the league, with just 10 field goal tries and eight extra point attempts. Karty has been dependable when given the opportunity, converting 90% of his field goals. However, he's also one of the few kickers in the league who has missed at least one extra-point attempt this season. After last week's bye, Karty is ranked as the 15th kicker versus the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 7. Given the continued uncertainty surrounding the Rams' offense, Karty is more of a streamer in deep-league formats against the Raiders.
