Who Should I Start? Randy Bullock or Eddy Piñeiro

Thursday, December 21, 2:18 PM

New York Giants kicker Randy Bullock (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve on Thursday due to the hamstring strain that knocked him out of Week 15's loss to the New Orleans Saints. Bullock ends his season having made five of six field goal attempts and converting all 10 of his extra-point tries. The move opens the door for Cade York to move up from the practice squad and take over kicking duties for New York. York spent his rookie year with the Cleveland Browns and was 24-for-32 on field goal attempts and missed two of his 37 extra-point attempts in 2022. York is the likeliest pivot for the Giants when they face the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday, but fantasy managers should avoid him in Week 16.

San Francisco 49ers kicker Eddy Pineiro has been one of the NFL's top scorers lately, going 8-for-8 on field goals and 3-for-3 on extra points over his last two games. The 30-year-old has been a terrific addition for the Niners, who moved on from the plight of Jake Moody earlier this year and have gotten consistent production out of his replacement. This week, Pineiro takes on the Atlanta Falcons, who rank near the middle of the league in limiting kicker points. The Falcons have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to kickers, giving Pineiro an opportunity to remain highly effective yet again. He should be streamed and/or started in most leagues this week.
