Chris Boswell Not A Reliable Fantasy Option In Week 3

Friday, September 22, 5:52 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell had a solid performance in Week 2 and will look to stay perfect on the season in a Week 3 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Despite his consistency as an NFL kicker, there is little upside to starting Boswell in fantasy lineups. The Steelers are averaging just 16.5 points per game and were forced to rely on big defensive plays to win last week. Boswell could conceivably have a busy day against the Raiders, who are allowing the eighth-most points in the league, but fantasy managers should wait to see improvements from Pittsburgh's offense before considering him a streaming option.

Jake Elliott A Must-Start In Week 3

Thursday, September 21, 10:18 AM

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Buccaneers in Week 3 on Monday night. The 28-year-old is on pace to smash last year's production. Through two games, he has already converted 6-of-7 field goals, with three of them being from 50 or more yards away. For context, Elliott converted just 20 field goals in 2022. Philadelphia has to settle for more three-point attempts than last year, much to the fantasy benefit of the veteran kicker. Tampa Bay's defense has not let up a ton of points through two games, but the matchup matters little when it comes to the Eagles' offense. Elliott should have plenty of chances to convert kicks and carries a high fantasy-scoring floor and ceiling heading into the prime-time matchup. Elliott is a must-start option in Week 3.
