Jason Sanders Might Not Play in 2025

Thursday, October 16, 12:05 PM

According to Miami Dolphins special teams coordinator Craig Aukerman, the team is uncertain if placekicker Jason Sanders (hip) is close to a return, or if he'll even be available to play in the 2025 campaign. Sanders sustained a hip injury leading up to the start of the regular season, but it appears to be worse than initially thought, as he was expected back after Week 5 but has yet to begin practicing. Considering the team's lack of knowledge regarding his progression and Riley Patterson's excellence working in his stead, it wouldn't be surprising if the 29-year-old didn't kick again until 2026. Fantasy managers can safely drop Sanders if he was being held onto.

Harrison Mevis a High-Upside Fantasy Kicker Despite Fewer Opportunities

Saturday, December 6, 11:19 AM

Los Angeles Rams kicker Harrison Mevis has been incredibly accurate since replacing Joshua Karty, but a limited number of field goal attempts has lowered his ceiling and floor in fantasy football. Nevertheless, the Rams' dominant offense keeps Mevis near the top of the fantasy rankings, given that Los Angeles consistently gets into scoring range. The big obstacle in regard to Mevis' fantasy value is that the Rams end a lot of drives with touchdowns, rather than field goals. As a result, he has been accumulating plenty of one-point extra points, but missing out on frequent opportunities to rack up between three and five fantasy points on field goals. In fact, in four games since joining the Rams, Mevis is a whopping 17-for-17 on extra points, but just 2-for-2 on field goals. Accuracy hasn't been an issue, so now, fantasy managers will have to hope that the longer-distance kicks start to show up. Karty averaged 1.9 field goals per game when he was the Rams' kicker, so managers should feel optimistic that Mevis' reduced opportunities are a fluke and he'll handle a larger volume of high-value kicking opportunities as the sample size increases. RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings reflect this upside, as Mevis ranks as the overall K5 for Week 14. A matchup against the Arizona Cardinals could work in his favor, as Arizona has surrendered the second-most fantasy points and third-most field goals to opposing kickers in 2025.
