Who Should I Start? Justin Tucker or Jason Myers

Saturday, October 4, 9:26 AM

Free agent kicker Justin Tucker (suspended) is working out Saturday at the University of Texas, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Tucker was suspended for the first 10 weeks of the 2025 NFL season for violating the league's personal conduct policy, and he was subsequently released by the Baltimore Ravens this past offseason. He'll be eligible for reinstatement on November 11th, at which point he can sign with any team. Pelissero notes that Tucker "already has interest from several teams," which could mean that he signs sooner rather than later once he's eligible. Off-the-field issues aside, Tucker has been one of the best kickers in NFL history, nailing 90.2 percent of his field goals from 2012 through 2023. He proceeded to decline in 2024, making just 22 of 30 field goals, but teams are at least interested in seeing if the seven-time Pro Bowler and five-time First-Team All-Pro can return to peak form.

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is in a great position to succeed against an average-at-best Washington Commanders defense in Week 9. The Seahawks' offense should have no issues moving the ball up and down the field against this team. Myers is the K8, even with a bye week to his name. He has only scored fewer than 8 fantasy points on one occasion this year. That only happened because the Seahawks almost exclusively scored touchdowns against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 5. As such, Myers has about as safe a floor as any kicker in the league. He is still readily available on waivers, especially since he is coming out of his bye. If you need a kicker in Week 9, and even beyond, do not hesitate to set and forget Myers.
