Who Should I Start? Spencer Shrader or Ryan Fitzgerald

Saturday, September 27, 8:59 AM

Indianapolis Colts kicker Spencer Shrader has been busy to start the year, hitting 11 of his 12 field-goal attempts and all 10 of his extra-point tries. The veteran kicker will look to keep it going in a Week 4 road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams have been generous to fantasy kickers thus far, allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. The Colts have employed one of the best offenses in the league through three games and Shrader should continue to see plenty of point-scoring chances heading into Week 4. Treat him as a top-12 fantasy kicker this weekend.

Carolina Panthers kicker Ryan Fitzgerald has won the kicking job after the team released Matthew Wright, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. The undrafted rookie out of Florida State went 3-for-3 on field goals and also converted his lone extra point attempt through three preseason games. He enjoyed similar success at school, going 13-for-13 on field goals during his final collegiate campaign in 2024. Although the Panthers' offense is trending up, Fitzgerald lacks fantasy appeal at the moment, especially as a rookie with no track record kicking at the professional level.
