Who Should I Start? Chris Boswell or Tyler Loop

Saturday, September 13, 12:17 AM

In the season opener, Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell picked up right where he left off in 2024, drilling two field goals and four extra points. Most notably, he set a franchise record with a 60-yarder that gave Pittsburgh a 34-32 lead with just over a minute left in the fourth quarter. Boswell will look to carry this momentum into a Week 2 meeting with the Seattle Seahawks, who fared well against fantasy kickers last season. Despite the matchup and modest projected point total, Boswell's consistency keeps him in play as a reliable starter across all formats.

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop enjoyed a good start to his NFL career despite the missed extra point against the Buffalo Bills. With 12 fantasy points, he came in as the K7 in his first game after making a 52-yarder and a 49-yarder, along with going four-for-five in extra points. This offense should have no problem getting the ball into field goal range, especially against the divisional rival Cleveland Browns. Loop will remain in the top-ten fantasy kicker conversation unless he proves otherwise, so managers can look to deploy him in lineups again in Week 2.
