Who Should I Start? Chase McLaughlin or Will Reichard

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.

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard has maintained perfection through the first six games of his rookie campaign, and he'll look to keep that streak going against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football in Week 8. Reichard is 12-for-12 on field goals and 18-for-18 on extra points, nailing four kicks from 50-plus yards out. He has been a top-six fantasy kicker in three of his last four games, and now he benefits from a favorable matchup against a Rams unit allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers. Managers should take advantage of Reichard's impressive stretch and insert him into their lineup for Week 8 and beyond, especially since he's already had his bye week.
