Who Should I Start? Chris Boswell or Riley Patterson

Wednesday, October 15, 9:59 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell drilled both of his extra-point tries and went three-for-four on field goal attempts in a Week 6 win over the Cleveland Browns. His lone miss came on a 54-yard try, as the 11th-year veteran slipped on less-than-ideal field conditions. Boswell should remain steady as usual against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. The Bengals are one of just three teams in the NFL allowing over 30 points per game through six weeks, so if Pittsburgh's offense continues to move the ball effectively, Boswell should have plenty of opportunities to contribute. He checks in as a top-10 option in RotoBaller's Week 7 fantasy rankings.

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.
