Who Should I Start? Chris Boswell or Riley Patterson

Saturday, November 8, 12:47 AM

Last week, Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell converted both of his field goal attempts and all three extra points in a 27-20 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. He should stay steady in a Week 10 showdown with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers' defense has been solid overall, but Boswell has consistently shown to be matchup-proof and dependable for both the Steelers and fantasy managers alike. The veteran is 14-for-15 on field-goal attempts of 40 yards or more and a perfect 20-for-20 on extra points this season, his 11th as a pro. Boswell can remain locked into fantasy lineups as a top-10 kicking option.

Miami Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson was signed to the active roster before Week 4's win over the Jets and will continue to fill in for as long as Jason Sanders (hip) remains sidelined. Patterson has connected on all four of his field goal attempts and all nine of his extra points this season. He hasn't attempted anything from beyond 50 yards, and the Dolphins' offense has struggled, which has limited his opportunities. He is in a favorable environment and matchup this week, though, so he's a workable bye week fill-in if you need him. He's the No. 18 K in RotoBaller's rankings, so he works as an option in deep leagues if you're desperate.
