Chris Boswell Draws Tough Matchup In Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 12:35 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell got off to a hot start this season but cooled off for fantasy purposes with two underwhelming outings before the team's Week 5 bye. He'll look to get back on track against the Cleveland Browns in Week 6. The Browns have held kickers to the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game, as their defense has made it difficult for offenses to sustain drives. Still, it's difficult to imagine the Steelers emerging victorious on Sunday without the help of Boswell's leg. His lone miss this year came on a blocked field goal attempt in Ireland against the Vikings. Fantasy managers can likely find a safer streaming option in a more favorable matchup, but Boswell's ceiling remains among the highest at the position, making him a viable starter in most formats.

Tyler Loop Still a Viable Starting Kicker Option in Week 5?

Saturday, October 4, 2:54 PM

Baltimore Ravens rookie kicker Tyler Loop has made all seven of his field goal attempts and 14 out of 15 extra-point tries through the first four games of his NFL career. The Ravens' overall point-scoring outlook will take a hit in Week 5, as Baltimore will be without quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) due to a hamstring injury. Additionally, Baltimore faces a difficult matchup against the Houston Texans. Through four weeks, Houston opponents are averaging just 12.8 points per game. Loop does not profile as a strict avoid for fantasy managers in Week 5, but he's a low-end starting kicker option at best.
