Riley Patterson Released By Commanders

Thursday, August 22, 9:20 AM

The Washington Commanders are releasing kicker Riley Patterson following the trade for former Cleveland Browns kicker Cade York, according to John Keim of ESPN. Patterson has spent time with six NFL organizations since going undrafted out of Memphis in 2021. He's seen regular-season action with the Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Cleveland Browns, and has made 59 of his 67 field goal attempts through the first 39 contests of his career. Patterson's 88.1% career field goal percentage is above the league's average, so it would not be surprising if he lands another opportunity this season.

Will Reichard Makes All Five Kicks Versus 49ers

Monday, September 16, 12:31 AM

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard went 3-for-3 on field goals and 2-for-2 on extra points during Sunday's Week 2 win over the San Francisco 49ers. His successful field goals came from 22, 27, and 39 yards out. The rookie out of Alabama hadn't previously attempted an NFL field goal, but that didn't seem to slow him down as he cruised to double-digit fantasy points on Sunday afternoon. As long as the Vikings continue to play well, Reichard will have some streaming appeal in fantasy leagues with 14 teams or more.
