Harrison Butker Should Be Involved Against Commanders In Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 5:00 PM

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Washington Commanders on Monday night in Week 8. Butker converted all four of his extra-point attempts and his lone field goal attempt against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 7. The Chiefs kicker has missed a kick in five of seven games this season, but he's coming off a game where he went 5-for-5. Butker should be involved against the Commanders, given that the Chiefs are nearly 12-point home favorites on Monday night. The Commanders will be without their star quarterback, Jayden Daniels, which could mean more Chiefs possessions and more Butker kicks. Butker is ranked K2 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a top-end kicker option in Week 8.

Tyler Loop Could Bounce Back in Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 11:35 AM

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop was firmly in the K1 discussion across the first two weeks of the season. Then, Lamar Jackson (hamstring) went down, and the entire offense came to a screeching halt. Over the last three games, he's made a combined four out of five field goals and three out of three extra points. In comparison, he was 4-for-4 and 9-for-10 in the first two games. With Lamar Jackson (hamstring) on the verge of returning to the field, Loop should see a noticeable uptick in opportunities as well. Tyler Huntley could start in Week 8, but either way, Loop is trending upwards and could be a starting option again for fantasy managers looking for kicking help.
