Jason Sanders News
Tuesday, March 10, 3:28 PM
Former Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the New York Giants on Tuesday, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Sanders missed all of the 2025 season due to a hip injury and was released by Miami. The 30-year-old veteran will now head to the NFC East, where he could quickly become a valuable kicker in fantasy if he's fully healthy in a Giants offense with all kinds of explosive weapons. Sanders has made 84.6% of his 221 career field-goal attempts (33-for-48 from 50-plus yards) in his seven years in the NFL. The former seventh-round pick in 2018 out of New Mexico went 37-for-41 on field goals (12-for-14 from 50-plus yards) and 26-for-28 on extra-point attempts in 17 games in his last healthy season in 2024. Sanders will be firmly in sleeper territory at the kicking position if he wins the Giants' placekicker job.

Rodrigo Blankenship News
Monday, August 21, 6:14 PM
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers waived kicker Rodrigo Blankenship on Monday. Blankenship lost the kicking battle to Chase McLaughlin in training camp this summer and will now look to latch on with another team before the start of the 2023 regular season. The 26-year-old spent last year with the Indianapolis Colts and Arizona Cardinals, going 4-for-5 on his field-goal tries and 4-for-5 on extra points in just three total games. As long as Tampa doesn't bring in more competition for McLaughlin to close out the preseason, he should enter Week 1 as the team's starting kicker. McLaughlin, 27, made 83.3 percent of his 36 field-goal attempts and made all 21 of his extra-point tries in 16 games with the Indianapolis Colts in 2022. The kicking position in Tampa won't be as exciting in fantasy now that Tom Brady isn't running the offense in 2023.
