Chris Boswell a Risky Fantasy Option in Week 2

Friday, September 18, 7:55 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell remains one of the most consistent players at his position in the NFL, but he could disappoint for fantasy purposes in a difficult matchup against the New England Patriots this week. New England surrendered the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers last season, and this contest is projected to be a low-scoring affair featuring two strong defenses. If Pittsburgh's offense begins to click under new head coach Mike McCarthy, Boswell could become a matchup-proof starter at some point in 2026. For now, however, fantasy managers can likely find a better alternative in a more favorable matchup this weekend.

Ka'imi Fairbairn News

Ka'imi Fairbairn Is a Fringe Starter in Week 2

Saturday, September 19, 4:19 AM

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn knocked through a 58-yard field goal in Week 1 and converted all four of his extra point attempts in his team's 36-31 loss to the Bills. He'll be at home at Reliant Stadium for a second straight week in Week 2 against the Bengals, who showed huge improvement on defense in Week 1 against the Bengals. The Texans' offense will be without star WR Nico Collins (hamstring), which lowers the team's overall scoring potential a bit. Even with a slightly lower ceiling, Fairbairn is still consistent enough to be a starter in most leagues, especially since he's kicking indoors. He checks in as RotoBaller's K No. 13 for Week 2.
