Riley Patterson Will Kick for Ravens on Monday vs. Chargers

Thursday, November 12, 7:09 AM

Kicker Riley Patterson, who was signed on Wednesday, will be the Baltimore Ravens' kicker for their Monday night game against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, special teams coordinator Anthony Levine told Jamison Hensley of ESPN. The Ravens also signed kicker Harrison Mevis to the practice squad for depth behind Patterson. The 27-year-old Patterson comes to the Ravens after going 7-for-9 on his field-goal attempts and 5-for-6 on extra points in five games this year for the Miami Dolphins as their placekicker. He will be taking over for Jake Moody, who was Baltimore's Week 9 kicker before the Atlanta Falcons signed him off the practice squad on Tuesday. In five-plus NFL seasons, Patterson has made 86.6% of his 112 field-goal attempts (7-for-14 from 50-plus yards) and 96.1% of his 154 extra-point attempts with six different teams. The Ravens will be starting new quarterback Jacoby Brissett for the first time this year in Week 10 on Monday Night Football, which should be a boost to their offense over Joe Fagnano, but fantasy managers should have better options at kicker than Patterson.

Will Reichard News

Changes Could Elevate Will Reichard In Week 10

Friday, November 13, 11:51 AM

The Minnesota Vikings traded for quarterback Kirk Cousins this week, an obvious upgrade for the passing game across the board, but also a big deal for kicker Will Reichard ahead of a Week 10 visit to Green Bay. The kicker has been outstanding in spite of one of the NFL's most anemic offenses, connecting on 20 of 22 field goal attempts, including seven makes from beyond 50 yards. Through eight games, Reichard is the fifth-ranked fantasy kicker, a remarkable pace considering the Minnesota offense has the fewest first downs in the NFL. The outdoor conditions on Sunday in Green Bay project to be decent, never guaranteed for this time of year, which should keep the All-Pro in consideration for lineups that feature a kicker. Reichard is RotoBaller's No. 10 fantasy kicker this week.
