Who Should I Start? Joey Slye or Jake Moody

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.

Chicago Bears kicker Jake Moody was elevated from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints. Moody was close to perfect in his Bears debut in Week 6 against Washington, nailing his lone extra point and hitting four of five field goals, including a 38-yarder as time expired to give the Bears their third win of the season. His 48-yard field goal to start the fourth quarter was blocked, but it was otherwise a great debut for Moody, who has had his struggles in San Francisco. He projects again as a decent option in Week 7 with the Chicago offense improving each week.
