Who Should I Start? Randy Bullock or Joey Slye

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 Tennessee Titans signed former New England Patriots and Washington Commanders kicker Joey Slye to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to agent Glenn Schwartzman. Slye signed with the Patriots last year and beat out Chad Ryland for kicking duties. The 28-year-old then went 26-for-33 on his field-goal attempts (6-for-9 from 50-plus yards) and 25-for-26 on his extra-point tries in 17 games played. The Titans will be the sixth team that Slye has kicked for in his NFL career after going undrafted out of Virginia Tech in 2018. He has a career 81.7 percent success rate on his field-goal attempts in 95 games played. He's currently the only kicker on Tennessee's roster, but it wouldn't be a surprise for the Titans to bring in competition for training camp this summer. Slye is unlikely to be much of a fantasy option in 12-team leagues this fall.
