Who Should I Start? Harrison Mevis or Andy Borregales

Thursday, December 18, 2:07 AM

Los Angeles Rams kicker Harrison Mevis has been trending up lately with three field goals and 11 extra points over his last two games. He has the ninth-most fantasy points among kickers during that two-week span, but he'll likely drop outside of the top 12 as he faces suboptimal weather conditions on Thursday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16. The forecast calls for occasional rain showers and winds consistently above 20 mph during the game, with gusts up to 45 mph. The wind could pose a major threat to Mevis' outlook on Thursday night, limiting his accuracy on field-goal attempts from medium or long distance. As a result, Mevis has dropped to #15 in the latest RotoBaller fantasy football rankings for kickers in Week 16. Managers should use RotoBaller's rankings to find a better option at the kicker position for this week.

New England Patriots kicker Andy Borregales has been a spectacular fantasy option lately, and he's surging at just the right time as managers prepare for the opening round of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues. The rookie has gone 10-for-12 on field goals and 8-for-8 on extra points over his last three games. While he has missed a kick in two of those three contests, his high volume of field-goal attempts has made up for a slight reduction in overall accuracy. With that being said, Borregales' matchup this week is on the tougher side, as Buffalo has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to kickers in 2025. He could also deal with uncertain weather; there's expected to be snow tapering off shortly after kickoff, along with cold temperatures. On a positive note, Sunday's game isn't expected to feature much wind. Borregales' floor may be a little lower than in past weeks, but he still has high upside. As a result, he ranks as the #11 kicker in this week's RotoBaller fantasy football rankings. He can be started in most leagues, especially as New England's offense continues to get into scoring range quite often.
