Who Should I Start? Greg Joseph or Blake Grupe

Friday, October 18, 11:30 PM

New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph will look to rebound in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles after a disappointing Week 6 where he missed both of his field goal attempts, potentially costing the Giants a chance to stay competitive in their 17-7 loss to the Bengals. Joseph has struggled with consistency this season, hitting just 72.7% of his field goals and missing three from the 40-49 yard range. For Joseph to make a fantasy impact, he'll need to capitalize on every opportunity moving forward as starter Graham Gano may be returning soon from injury.

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe made the most of the Week 6 defeat at the hands of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Grupe had a perfect day, hitting field goals from 29 and 42 yards out and converting all three of his extra point attempts in the 51-27 loss which resulted in his best fantasy score since Week 1. He is 10-for-10 on field goal attempts in 2024 though he has missed two extra points. The Saints open Week 7 with a Thursday night matchup against the Denver Broncos. The game is expected to be a low-scoring affair given Denver's defensive prowess and lack of firepower on offense. As such, Grupe's upside is limited in a game where scoring chances are expected to be few and far between. Grupe has not done enough this season to separate himself from the pack so fantasy managers should have no qualms about streaming another kicker in Week 7.
