Who Should I Start? Nick Folk or Matt Gay

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk faces the New York Jets in a Week 2 matchup this Sunday. The veteran nailed his only field goal attempt against Chicago last week, booting in a 40-yarder early in the second quarter. Unfortunately the Titans offense could not move the ball for the entirety of the second half which didn't lead to many opportunities for Folk to put points on the board. The story may be the same this coming week with the Jets and their stout defensive unit coming to town. There are likely better kicking options currently on waivers for this week.

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay (quadriceps) has been removed from the final injury report on Friday and will kick in Week 3 at Lucas Oil Stadium against the visiting Chicago Bears. Gay missed the season-opening loss to the division-rival Houston Texans after having sports-hernia surgery but returned in last week's loss to the Green Bay Packers. The 30-year-old made his only extra-point try while going 1-for-2 on his field-goal attempts at Lambeau Field. Gay missed practice on Wednesday due to a new quad injury but practiced in full on both Thursday and Friday, assuring he will play on Sunday. Going up against a stout Bears defense and potentially without their top receiver in Michael Pittman Jr. (back, calf), Gay isn't a recommended fantasy streamer for Week 3.
