Chris Boswell A Risky Fantasy Option in Week 5

Friday, October 9, 4:12 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell converted one of his two field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in last week's loss to the Cleveland Browns and will look to get back on track against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. Indianapolis is giving up the sixth-most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers this season, so while this looks like a promising matchup on paper, the weather in Pittsburgh could impact Boswell's outlook. Heavy rain is in the forecast, with the potential for moderate winds, making it difficult to trust the offenses and kickers in this contest. Fantasy managers will want to monitor the weather heading into Sunday and prepare a backup plan if relying on Boswell as a top-15 option at the position.

Tyler Bass Remains a Viable Week 5 Kicker

Saturday, October 10, 11:59 AM

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass has made all six of his field-goal attempts through four games, but the opportunities haven't exactly been plentiful. Three of those attempts came in the season opener, and he's attempted only three field goals over the last three weeks. Bass connected from 27 and 38 yards against New England, his first multi-field-goal game since Week 1. Buffalo now faces a Rams defense that has allowed just 582 passing yards, while Joshua Palmer is out and DJ Moore remains questionable. Those injuries add some uncertainty to an offense that has struggled to maintain its early-season production. RotoBaller ranks Bass as K12 for Week 5, putting him on the fringe of the starting conversation in 12-team leagues. His accuracy has been excellent, but the inconsistent field-goal volume limits his appeal.
