Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins will "get every opportunity" to rebound from a down year in 2024, according to Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal. Hopkins had an excellent year in 2023 when he made 33 of his 36 kicks, including all eight attempts from beyond 50 yards. He was significantly worse in 2024, going just 18-27 overall and four-for-eight from 50+ yards out. Easterling notes that Hopkins' primary competition in Browns' camp is Andre Szmyt, who has yet to record a kick in an NFL game. Hopkins is just starting a three-year contract extension that he signed in July 2024, so the team is counting on him regaining his prior form. RotoBaller currently has Hopkins ranked as kicker #27 for fantasy.

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell drilled both of his extra-point attempts in a 28-14 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The team struggled to move the ball in the first half and found itself trailing by 21 at halftime, forcing Pittsburgh to be more aggressive with its decision-making in the second half. The Steelers scored two touchdowns in the third quarter, giving Boswell his only action of the contest on PATs. Despite a quiet conclusion to the campaign, it was a historic run for the 33-year-old, whose 41 field goals fell just three shy of David Akers' NFL record for single-season makes. Boswell is under contract through the 2026-2027 season and should be one of the first kickers off the board in fantasy drafts this coming fall.
