Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell nailed all four of his field goal attempts and was successful on both of his extra-point tries in a 26-18 win over the New York Giants. Boswell has now been perfect for five straight weeks and has drilled all but one of his 24 field goal attempts this season. With the Steelers' offense clicking as of late, Boswell offers a more consistent ceiling than he was thought to have been capable of to start the campaign. Pittsburgh has a bye in Week 9, meaning he will be dropped by some fantasy managers in need of a kicker to fill in, but Boswell is arguably worth holding onto as the leader in fantasy points at the position through eight weeks.

The Los Angeles Rams are signing veteran kicker Brett Maher on Monday after waiving rookie Lucas Havrisik earlier in the day. Maher began the year as the Rams' kicker and played in the first seven weeks before getting cut on Oct. 24, going 17-for-23 (73.9 percent) on his field-goal opportunities and 12-for-13 with his extra points. Havrisik was cut by the Rams on Monday after missing two of his four extra points in a one-point win over the New York Giants on Sunday. LA just has been unable to settle on a kicker all season, but Maher will hope to come back in and be more successful than he was earlier in the year as the team gets ready for another playoff appearance. In the Week 18 regular season finale against the San Francisco 49ers with key starters potentially being rested, Maher should be avoided for fantasy lineups.
