Chris Boswell An Elite Fantasy Option in Week 11

Saturday, November 15, 1:02 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell had an uncharacteristically rough outing in Week 10, hitting his lone extra-point try but converting on just one of his two field goal attempts in the loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. His miss from 45 yards was a rare slip for the veteran, who is typically automatic from inside 50 yards when weather and field conditions aren't a factor. Fortunately, he's in a great spot to bounce back at home against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. Sunday's contest carries a high projected point total, setting the stage for plenty of scoring opportunities. The 34-year-old checks in as a top-three option in RotoBaller's kicker rankings this week and should remain locked into fantasy lineups.

Matthew Wright News

Matthew Wright Starting at Kicker on Sunday Against the Jaguars

Friday, November 7, 10:04 AM

NFL reporter for the Houston Texans, Aaron Wilson, reported on Friday that the Texans will turn to Matthew Wright as their kicker in Week 10 as Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) is injured and not able to go against their division opponent, the Jacksonville Jaguars. Wright has kicked for multiple NFL teams and was last with the Washington Commanders. He has made 56 of 65 career kicks and 43 of 45 extra points. He has also kicked for the Tennessee Titans, Kansas City Chiefs, San Francisco 49ers, Carolina Panthers, Pittsburgh Steelers, and the Jaguars, Wilson reports. This is a big matchup for the Texans, as a loss will send them further to the bottom of the AFC South standings. The Texans sit at (3-5), while the Jaguars are at (5-3), and both are looking up at the division leaders, the Indianapolis Colts, at (7-2). A win here for the Texans could continue to give them hope down the stretch and help them make a run with a big division win. The Jaguars have allowed the second-fewest points to opposing kickers, making Wright a challenging play in Week 10.
