Who Should I Start? Randy Bullock or Jake Elliott

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.

The Philadelphia Eagles are re-signing kicker Jake Elliott to a four-year, $24 million contract extension, as reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter. Elliott earned second-team All-Pro honors in 2023 after making 30 of his 32 field-goal attempts and 45 of his 46 extra points. His longest field goal of the year was from 61 yards. The 29-year-old finished tied for fifth among kickers in fantasy points per game (9.2) last year, and he should remain a top-12 fantasy kicker for years to come behind a strong Eagles offense. He is now tied with Justin Tucker as the highest-paid kicker based on average salary ($6 million).
