Who Should I Start? Matt Prater or Harrison Butker

Friday, September 26, 3:54 PM

After converting all of his attempts in his first two games of the season, Buffalo Bills kicker Matt Prater came back to earth somewhat in a Week 3 win over the Miami Dolphins. Prater badly missed a 39-yard field goal to the left, but he hit a game-sealing 48-yarder late in the fourth quarter and nailed all four extra-point tries. Having already cashed in on seven field goals and nine PATs, the 41-year-old ranks fifth among kickers in fantasy points this season. He'll enter a juicy matchup in Week 4 versus the New Orleans, who have thus far given up the third-most fantasy points to kickers. On the other hand, the Bills are averaging a robust 34 points per game. Their top-tier offense has given Prater plenty of opportunities this year, and that's unlikely to change on Sunday against perhaps the worst team the Bills will face this year.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Baltimore Ravens in Week 4. Butker was busy in last week's matchup against the New York Giants. The Chiefs kicker knocked in his only extra-point attempt and three of four field goal attempts, with his longest make coming from 54 yards away. Butker could be busy again this week as the Chiefs face the highest scoring offense in the league. The Ravens are averaging 37 points per game through three weeks, nearly three points higher than the Detroit Lions and Indianapolis Colts, who are tied for second. The Chiefs are also home underdogs this week, meaning that they could be chasing points in this game. Butker is ranked K10 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him worthy of a start in most leagues.
