Who Should I Start? Matt Gay or Cam Little

Saturday, November 29, 4:55 AM

San Francisco 49ers kicker Matt Gay filled in reasonably well for the injured Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) in Week 12. In San Francisco's 20-9 win over the Panthers, Gay converted both of his extra point tries and nailed field goals from 29 and 47 yards out. Pineiro is listed as out on the 49ers' final injury report before their Week 13 showdown with the Cleveland Browns, so Gay will stay on as the team's kicker for at least one more week. Unfortunately, he won't be working in favorable conditions. Sunday's forecast calls for 25 to 35 MPH winds, rain, and snow in Cleveland. Gay will have to be at the top of his game to be of service to San Francisco. Fantasy football managers may want to look elsewhere to fill the kicker slot in their starting lineups for Week 13.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little is a decent starting option for fantasy managers in a Week 14 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. He had some off games in the middle of the season, but he has otherwise been relatively accurate, especially as of late. Little has also shown he has one of the biggest legs in the league, nailing an NFL record 68 yard field goal back in Week 9. Little has been great overall since the Week 8 bye, making him a good option in general moving forward. RotoBaller has Little ranked 13th this week, so Managers should view Little as a low-end starting kicker against the Colts.
