Who Should I Start? Chris Boswell or Jake Elliott

Friday, September 26, 10:00 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell was limited to extra-point duties in Week 3's win over the New England Patriots but will look for more opportunities against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4. The Vikings have been stout defensively this season, especially near the red zone, allowing just four offensive touchdowns but seven field goals -- tied for sixth-most in the NFL. With quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers' offense still finding its footing, this international matchup in Dublin, Ireland is projected to be a low-scoring affair. That puts Boswell in a position to play a key role on Sunday morning and remain a must-start fantasy option.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott didn't put a ton of points on the board last Sunday against the Buccaneers, but he did stay perfect on the season by making his lone field goal attempt and all four of his extra points. While Elliott is still yet to miss this season, it's not necessarily translating to much fantasy value. He faces the Denver Broncos in Week 5, a defense tied for second-best in the league in terms of opponent points per game (16.8). For right now, there are likely better kickers available in most fantasy leagues.
