Who Should I Start? Riley Patterson or Parker Romo

Saturday, October 4, 11:18 AM

Miami Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson was signed to the active roster before Week 4's win over the Jets and will continue to fill in for as long as Jason Sanders (hip) remains sidelined. Patterson has connected on all four of his field goal attempts and all nine of his extra points this season. He hasn't attempted anything from beyond 50 yards, and the Dolphins' offense has struggled, which has limited his opportunities. He is in a favorable environment and matchup this week, though, so he's a workable bye week fill-in if you need him. He's the No. 18 K in RotoBaller's rankings, so he works as an option in deep leagues if you're desperate.

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.
