Who Should I Start? Nick Folk or Chad Ryland

Saturday, December 6, 1:44 AM

New York Jets placekicker Nick Folk should continue to be a reliable option in Week 14's home matchup with the Miami Dolphins. Folk has been superb when called upon in 2025, missing all but one of his field goal tries (22-of-23) and connecting on each of his 18 extra-point attempts. Even at the age of 41, the veteran's leg is no worse for wear, drilling six kicks of 50-plus yards, including last weekend's 56-yard game-winner. Unfortunately, New York's (lack of) scoring offense has held him back from being amongst the league leaders in points. Still, he'll get an opportunity to be a viable fantasy asset in Sunday's outing with the visiting Dolphins. The Jets have moved the ball better with quarterback Tyrod Taylor at the helm, and Miami's defense has softened in recent weeks. If New York can continue trending positively, Folk may see a modest uptick in scoring down the stretch. He'll land as RotoBaller's K19 in this week's ranks.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland has had back-to-back games under five fantasy points for the first time this season. The 26-year-old went one for two with making an extra point attempt during Week 11's matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, making a field goal within the 30 and missing his first field goal on the year from 50-plus yards out. Ryland and the Cardinals will face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12, and they have allowed the 10th most passing yards this season. The Cardinals should be able to move the ball through the air to get Ryland into field goal range quite consistently. Fantasy managers can insert Ryland into lineups as a viable streaming option in Week 12.
