Who Should I Start? Jason Myers or Anders Carlson

Friday, December 12, 4:56 PM

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is in a great position to succeed in Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts. Myers is on a five-week streak of scoring at least 13 fantasy points. With Seattle's offense kicking a lot of field goals of late and finding themselves in scoring positions in general, Myers has had every opportunity to score for fantasy. Myers has been especially effective as a long-range kicker lately. He has made at least one kick of at least 40 yards in every game but one this year. That type of base is anchoring a stellar fantasy season. The Colts boast a solid defense, but even great defenses have been unable to keep Seattle out of scoring position this season. Start Myers with confidence once again in Week 15.

The New York Jets released kicker Anders Carlson on Wednesday and signed kicker Harrison Mevis in a corresponding move, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Mevis made 20 of his 21 field-goal attempts (95.2%) this year while playing for the UFL's Birmingham Stallions. Carlson, 27, is the younger brother of Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson. The Auburn product hasn't been as good as his older brother in the NFL, though, making 83.3% of his 48 field-goal tries since entering the league in 2023 with the Green Bay Packers. He went 13-for-15 on his field goals and 12-for-15 on extra points in seven games in 2024 with the San Francisco 49ers and the Jets. Carlson will now look for another team to sign with before training camp. Mevis will be competing with Caden Davis for the starting kicking job this summer.
