Who Should I Start? Jake Elliott or Tyler Loop

Friday, November 14, 10:47 PM

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made his only extra point attempt and his only field goal attempt from 39 yards in his most recent performance against the Green Bay Packers. While Elliott found his accuracy again, he was not given enough opportunities to put up any significant fantasy numbers in a game that ended 10-7. This week he'll kick against the Detroit Lions, who allow just 22.2 points per game to opposing offenses. Elliott has only made multiple field goals in one game this season, and is best left off of rosters until he shows some more fantasy production.

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop finished as the K2 in Week 10 despite missing one of his five field goal attempts against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie made four of them from 44, 28, 30, and 22 yards away while knocking through his only extra point attempt. He's now 16-for-18 overall on the season and 23-for-24 on extra points. The Ravens take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 11 after they went for 41 points against them in Week 2. In that game, Loop finished as the K8, and could very well finish even higher now that the team has even more trust in him. Fantasy managers can comfortably start Loop this week as he projects to be a K1 yet again.
