Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater as he lines up against the New York Giants in this week's matchup. In Week 1 against the Washington Commanders, Prater nailed a 54-yarder to give his team the lead they later relinquished. In Week 2, the Cardinals face off against the New York Giants, who just gave up two field goal attempts and five extra points against Dallas. His powerful kicks, combined with a Cardinals' offense that may have trouble moving the ball, makes him an above-average fantasy option for Week 2.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Buccaneers in Week 3 on Monday night. The 28-year-old is on pace to smash last year's production. Through two games, he has already converted 6-of-7 field goals, with three of them being from 50 or more yards away. For context, Elliott converted just 20 field goals in 2022. Philadelphia has to settle for more three-point attempts than last year, much to the fantasy benefit of the veteran kicker. Tampa Bay's defense has not let up a ton of points through two games, but the matchup matters little when it comes to the Eagles' offense. Elliott should have plenty of chances to convert kicks and carries a high fantasy-scoring floor and ceiling heading into the prime-time matchup. Elliott is a must-start option in Week 3.
