Joey Slye News
Wednesday, March 11, 7:22 AM
The Tennessee Titans are re-signing kicker Joey Slye to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, a source told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Slye will return to Nashville after going 28-for-35 on his field-goal attempts (9-for-14 from 50-plus yards) and 26-for-27 on his extra-point opportunities in 16 games last year. The 29-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Virginia Tech was mostly off the fantasy radar in 2025 in an inconsistent Titans offense led by rookie quarterback Cameron Ward. Slye finished as the No. 20 fantasy kicker in terms of overall fantasy points. For his career, Slye has made only 81.4% of his 215 field-goal attempts for six different teams over the course of seven seasons. The Titans' offense could make some improvements in Ward's second season under a new coaching staff, but fantasy managers should have higher-ceiling options to choose from this fall.

Andre Szmyt News
Wednesday, March 4, 12:00 PM
The Cleveland Browns announced on Wednesday that they tendered a contract to exclusive-rights free-agent kicker Andre Szmyt, among others. In his first year in the NFL, Szmyt made 24 of his 27 field-goal tries and missed just one of his 26 extra-point attempts in 17 games played in Cleveland. The 27-year-old will return to Cleveland for the 2026 season and should be expected to open the regular season as their starting placekicker. Szmyt was dependable for the Browns as a rookie, but he was only the No. 26 kicker in terms of overall fantasy points in a Browns offense that didn't create many scoring opportunities. Szmyt averaged only 5.7 fantasy points per game. He was named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week in Week 3 in 2025. Szmyt is a solid young kicker, but in 12-team fantasy leagues, you can find better, higher-ceiling options at the position.
