Should I Start Parker Romo?

Saturday, October 25, 12:07 PM

Atlanta Falcons kicker Parker Romo is an option for fantasy managers in Week 8's matchup with the Dolphins on Sunday. The 28-year-old is just 4-for-7 over the last four games after a 5-for-5 performance against the Vikings in Week 2, although his three misses were from 49 yards, 55 yards, and one was blocked. Romo draws a favorable matchup in Week 8, as the Falcons are favored by more than a touchdown with an implied point total of 26. It is also a home game, so there will be no weather to contend with. Additionally, Miami has yielded the third-most fantasy points to opposing kickers and is allowing over 29 points per game this season, so chalk Romo up as a viable kicking option for Sunday's contest, although he ranks just outside the top 12.
