Who Should I Start? Jason Myers or Matt Gay

Friday, November 21, 6:54 PM

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers will look to continue his massive 2025 campaign in Week 12 against the Tennessee Titans. Myers is attached to an offense that is putting up massive point totals every week. That should not change in Week 12 against a porous Titans defense. The Seahawks should be in scoring position all day. Whether it is for extra points or field goals, Myers will be on the field consistently. He has been relatively accurate this season, converting 21 of 26 field goals. Most notably, Myers is hitting from deep with 11 of his makes coming from beyond 40 yards. Those types of kicks are massive boosts in fantasy. Expect more short kicks in Week 12, but a lot of them. Myers is a top-ranked kicker this week.

The San Francisco 49ers signed free-agent kicker Matt Gay to their practice squad on Wednesday and released wide receiver Russell Gage Jr. from their practice squad in a corresponding move, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) suffered a Grade 1 hamstring strain in the Week 11 win over the Arizona Cardinals and is not expected to be available to kick this coming Monday night against the Carolina Panthers. Gay was just waived by the Washington Commanders on Monday after missing two kicks in a three-point loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday in Madrid. The 31-year-old veteran looks like he'll be the 49ers' short-term replacement at place kicker with Pineiro injured, but fantasy managers should be looking to stay away. The seven-year veteran has been inconsistent, making 13 of his 19 field-goal tries in 10 games, including going 4-for-9 from 50-plus yards out.
