Who Should I Start? Tyler Bass or Cam Little

Thursday, October 9, 12:55 PM

While Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott remained non-committal on whether kicker Tyler Bass (groin, hip) would be able to play this season, he did say that he is "heading in the right direction," according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. Bass remains on Injured Reserve, and the Bills didn't feel comfortable opening his 21-day practice window this week, which means he will not be ready to return for Monday night's contest in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons. The Bills probably aren't in any rush to bring the 28-year-old Bass back, with veteran Matt Prater being a reliable fill-in through the first five weeks of 2025. Prater has gone 10-for-15 on his field-goal chances while making all 15 of his extra-point opportunities for the 4-1 Bills. When/if Bass is fully healthy and ready to resume kicking, he should take back over as Buffalo's starting placekicker.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little didn't attempt a field goal for the first time this season in last week's 35-6 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but nailed all five extra points. Little has been a solid kicker option this season for fantasy managers, making 16 of 20 attempts and 24 of 25 extra points, ranking as the No. 15 kicker in total fantasy points. His 80% field goal percentage is just below the league average of 84.5%. The 22-year-old has one of the strongest legs in the league, as displayed by his 70-yard kick in the preseason, and he made history in Week 9 against the Raiders with the longest kick of all time at 68 yards. Little is RotoBaller's seventh-ranked kicker for Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals.
