Who Should I Start? Dustin Hopkins or Daniel Carlson

Saturday, September 23, 7:34 AM

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins has been a reliable kicker for the team through the first two weeks of the season, having hit five of his six field goals and his lone extra point. He will look to keep it going at home against the Tennessee Titans in Week 3. The Titans have been generous to opposing kickers thus far in 2023, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Hopkins is worth a look as a top-15 fantasy kicker in Week 3.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has been stellar when called upon so far in 2023, the problem is that has not been often enough. The 27-year-old is two-for-two on field goals and three-for-three on extra points for a Las Vegas offense that ranks 31st in points and 30th in yards after two weeks. The Raiders welcome the Steelers to town on Sunday night, a team giving up 11.5 fantasy points to opposing kickers so far this year. Carlson is an incredible talent weighed down by a below-average offense, making him a low-end kicker for fantasy managers at this point in the season despite the promising matchup.
