Matt Prater Still Widely Available Entering Week 2

Friday, September 12, 12:01 PM

Buffalo Bills kicker Matt Prater showed no ill effects from last season's meniscus injury in a 41-40 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1. Prater nailed all three of his field-goal attempts, including a 43-yarder at the end of the first half and a game-winning 32-yarder as time expired, and both extra points last Sunday. It was especially impressive considering Prater was out of the league just a few days before. With starter Tyler Bass (groin) on Injured Reserve, the Bills signed Prater, who will be their kicker for at least the next few weeks. The 41-year-old may not have age on his side, but he has been dependable throughout his career and should receive plenty of opportunities to rack up points with the Bills boasting one of the league's best offenses. Still available in 92% of Yahoo leagues, Prater looks like a worthwhile addition heading into a meeting with the New York Jets on Sunday.

Jason Myers Back in Play in Week 2

Friday, September 12, 3:23 PM

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers continues to be a quality option at the position. He should push for double-digit fantasy points when the Seahawks visit the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2. Myers has remained accurate as Seattle's kicker. He booted home all of his field goal and extra point attempts in Week 1. The Seahawks found themselves in scoring position a handful of times, but they happened to collapse in Week 1. If they can clean up many of the miscues that plagued the offense in the opening game, the team should move the ball with ease against a Steelers defense that just allowed 32 points to the New York Jets. Start Myers with confidence in Week 2.
