Who Should I Start? Matt Prater or Harrison Butker

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.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is 9-for-9 on field goals in the last three games, and he'll look to continue that streak against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. Butker has struggled with accuracy this season, but his recent stretch of success has brought his season 87.5% field goal percentage closer to his career average of 88.5%. The Chiefs kicker should find plenty of opportunities to extend his field goal streak against the Cowboys in a game with a 52.5 O/U. The Dallas offense is one of the highest-scoring units in the league, and the Chiefs will need to score often to keep pace. Butker is ranked K11 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a borderline K1 in Week 13.
