Who Should I Start? Matt Prater or Brandon McManus

Thursday, November 20, 12:11 AM

Buffalo Bills kicker Matt Prater has continued to flash just enough potential in the team's high-powered offense to remain relevant in fantasy football. The 41-year-old will look to rack up double-digit points against the Houston Texans on Thursday night for the first time since Week 8. Prater has totaled just 13 points over his last three games. Meanwhile, the Texans are allowing just 5.1 points per game to opposing kickers, the lowest total in the league. With Josh Allen leading the way, expect the Bills to find the endzone multiple times, but Prater's value will come from field goal opportunities, which are shaky at best. Despite the tough matchup, Prater can be used as a streamer in Week 12 and is ranked 10th among all kickers in the latest RotoBaller rankings.

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (quadricep) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He was a full participant in practice this week and didn't get added to the injury report until Saturday. Once he was added, though, the team listed him as doubtful, indicating that he likely wouldn't play. Lucas Havrisik, who is 6-for-6 on extra points and 4-for-4 on field goals this year, will kick in his absence.
