Ka'imi Fairbairn Is a Fringe Starter in Week 2

Saturday, September 19, 4:19 AM

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn knocked through a 58-yard field goal in Week 1 and converted all four of his extra point attempts in his team's 36-31 loss to the Bills. He'll be at home at Reliant Stadium for a second straight week in Week 2 against the Bengals, who showed huge improvement on defense in Week 1 against the Bengals. The Texans' offense will be without star WR Nico Collins (hamstring), which lowers the team's overall scoring potential a bit. Even with a slightly lower ceiling, Fairbairn is still consistent enough to be a starter in most leagues, especially since he's kicking indoors. He checks in as RotoBaller's K No. 13 for Week 2.

Will Reichard In Middle Of The Pack For Week 2

Friday, September 18, 12:25 PM

Coming off a solid but unremarkable Week 1, Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard is a mid-range fantasy option as his team prepares to play the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The Bears' defense allowed 37 points at Carolina last week, though Minnesota faces some uncertainty at quarterback as backup Carson Wentz prepares to start with Kyler Murray (concussion) already ruled out for Week 2. For his part, Reichard played well in Week 1, connecting on all four of his extra points and a 38-yard field goal in the Vikings' comeback win against Green Bay. An All-Pro last season, the Alabama alum has turned into one of the NFL's top kickers, so he warrants consideration in almost every game, but managers patrolling the waiver wire might be able to find a stronger play elsewhere this week.
