Who Should I Start? Nick Folk or Jason Myers

Friday, October 17, 9:15 PM

New York Jets placekicker Nick Folk is a low-end fantasy option for his team's contest with the visiting Carolina Panthers in Week 7. As has been the case all season, the veteran was perfect in Week 6, knocking through all three of his field goal attempts - a season-high. Carolina's defense has been stingy in the yardage department, but they're a bottom-half team in terms of scoring and one of the worst NFL teams regarding red zone efficiency. With that said, New York's offense may have trouble matriculating the ball sans its WR1 in Garrett Wilson. Folk has been excellent when called upon, and would be a reliable option if the Jets could find more offensive consistency. However, he again won't be a recommended fantasy asset despite what should be a juicy matchup. The 40-year-old is RotoBaller's K25 for this weekend's slate of games.

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is in line for another solid fantasy outing against the Houston Texans in Week 7. Myers is currently the K3 in fantasy. He has delivered five games with at least eight fantasy points this season. The Seahawks' offense has played very well in 2025, which has left Myers in plenty of scoring positions this season. The Texans boast one of the elite defenses in the NFL this year. They may cap the Seahawks' usual offensive output. However, Seattle should still be able to move the ball on this team, which will at least result in field goal attempts. Given the matchup, Myers is not as strong a play as he usually is, but he is still a starting option for fantasy in Week 7. If you need to plug in an option at kicker this week, do not be afraid of Myers, who is available in a lot of leagues.
