Who Should I Start? Greg Zuerlein or Cameron Dicker

Friday, May 16, 4:32 PM

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein has been released by the organization on Friday. This news doesn't come as a shock after Zuerlein struggled last season. He appeared in eight games, Zuerlein made only 9-of-15 field goal attempts, which is the worst of his career. The 37-year-old missed time with a knee injury as well, so it wouldn't be surprising if he decided to retire. If not, Zuerlein will likely need to earn his spot in training camp on another roster. The expectation is that Anders Carlson and Cade Davis will compete for the starting gig this fall.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker continued his perfect season despite the team's 38-24 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, successfully converting a 43-yard field goal and all three extra points. Ahead of Thursday night's game against the Minnesota Vikings, the Chargers are projected to score 24 points, indicating a stable environment for kicking opportunities, even if the game may be more defensive due to the short week. Dicker's proven accuracy and the expectation that the high-volume Chargers offense will move the ball effectively make him one of the safest options at the position. RotoBaller has Dicker ranked as K7 this week. He can confidently be started in your lineup.
