Matt Gay Out on Monday, Matthew Wright to Kick for Commanders

Monday, October 27, 5:45 PM

The Washington Commanders announced on Monday that kicker Matt Gay (back) has been downgraded to out for the Week 8 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. In a corresponding move, the team signed Matthew Wright to the active 53-man roster from the practice squad, and he will serve as their placekicker in Kansas City. The team also released wide receiver Robbie Chosen from the practice squad. It's unclear if Gay's back injury is serious enough to keep him out for another game in Week 9 when the team squares off against the Seattle Seahawks. Wright, who is in his sixth season in the NFL, played in one game for the Tennessee Titans this year, making his only field-goal attempt and his only extra-point try. He is a career 87.5% field-goal kicker in his 30 NFL games with six different teams. Wright should be avoided in DFS lineups in a tough road matchup with starting quarterback Jayden Daniels (hamstring) sidelined.

Cameron Dicker Continues Perfect Season

Thursday, October 23, 12:09 AM

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker continued his perfect season despite the team's 38-24 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, successfully converting a 43-yard field goal and all three extra points. Ahead of Thursday night's game against the Minnesota Vikings, the Chargers are projected to score 24 points, indicating a stable environment for kicking opportunities, even if the game may be more defensive due to the short week. Dicker's proven accuracy and the expectation that the high-volume Chargers offense will move the ball effectively make him one of the safest options at the position. RotoBaller has Dicker ranked as K7 this week. He can confidently be started in your lineup.
