Joey Slye Officially Ruled Out for Week 6

Friday, October 10, 2:16 PM

Tennessee Titans kicker Joey Slye (calf) has officially been ruled out for the team's Week 6 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders due to a calf injury, per Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com. Slye leads the league in both field goal attempts (17) and makes (13 through five weeks so far this season. With Slye sidelined, Tennessee will reportedly let veteran Matthew Wright handle the kicking duties in Week 6. Wright has appeared in 29 games across five NFL seasons for six different teams. He's made 55 out of 63 (87.3%) of his career field goal attempts. Wright should be avoided by fantasy managers in Week 6 against Las Vegas.

Evan McPherson Not a Relevant Fantasy Option in Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 1:59 PM

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson has made all of his field goals this season. Unfortunately, he's been limited to only five attempts. The Bengals offense has struggled throughout the 2025 campaign, regardless if Joe Burrow (toe) and Jake Browning were under center. With Joe Flacco, who was recently traded by the Browns, getting the start versus the Packers, it's unknown how the offense will respond. With that in mind, until the offense can put McPherson in a position to be more productive, he should be left out of all fantasy lineups in Week 6. That will also apply moving ahead until McPherson starts getting more action.
