Who Should I Start? Parker Romo or Andy Borregales

Atlanta Falcons kicker Parker Romo will kick again for the team in their Week 4 tilt on Sunday against the visiting Washington Commanders, according to D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The Falcons moved on from former kicker Younghoe Koo after a disappointing performance in the season opener and replaced him with Romo in Week 2. Romo made all five of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in the Week 3 win over the Minnesota Vikings. However, it didn't last, as he missed both of his field-goal attempts in last week's 30-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers. For now, the Falcons will stick with the 28-year-old heading into Week 4. Romo has gone 16-for-19 in his NFL career on field goals and has missed one of his 10 extra-point tries. Fantasy managers should look for better streaming options.

New England Patriots kicker Andy Borregales has struggled through his first two NFL games, going 4-for-5 on field goals and just 2-for-4 on extra points so far. The rookie has failed to establish himself as a reliable fantasy option. Instead, he's near the bottom of fantasy rankings and could be a couple more poor games away from fighting for his job. The Patriots' opponent this week, the Pittsburgh Steelers, have allowed the 15th-most fantasy points to opposing kickers this year, ranking near the league median. However, even if they had allowed the most fantasy points to kickers, Borregales wouldn't be worth trusting. He needs to establish more kicking consistency before he climbs back onto the fantasy radar. He can be dropped in all leagues.
