Who Should I Start? Harrison Butker or Wil Lutz

Saturday, December 6, 5:37 AM

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Houston Texans in Week 14. Butker made all nine of his field goal attempts from Weeks 10 -12, but did not get an opportunity to extend that streak in Week 13 against the Dallas Cowboys. Butker did not record a single field goal attempt on Thanksgiving, but he was perfect on his four extra-point attempts. The Chiefs kicker has improved his accuracy over the past few weeks, and he will need it if called upon against a tough Houston defense. If Kansas City has drives halted by the Texans, there could be field goal opportunities for Butker. That said, if the Chiefs do not drive into field goal range, kicking duties could be handed over to the punter. Butker is ranked K15 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a lower-end option this week.

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has agreed to a three-year extension with the organization on Friday. This news comes after Lutz earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors. Lutz went 5-for-5 on field goal attempts, including a game-winner against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11. This new deal will keep Lutz in Denver through 2028. Through 11 games, Lutz has made 17-of-20 field goal attempts, while connecting on all 24 of his extra point kicks. A well-deserved extension for Lutz who has been a viable option for the Broncos over the last three seasons.
