Who Should I Start? Tyler Bass or Cameron Dicker

Wednesday, September 24, 1:07 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that kicker Tyler Bass (groin, hip) is "moving in the right direction," but the team is unsure when he will return from Injured Reserve, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Bass will have to miss at least one more game while on IR, but he'll be eligible to make his 2025 debut in Week 5 against the division-rival New England Patriots. Given the fact that there's still no timetable on the 28-year-old's return, it seems unlikely he'll play next week. The Bills have been using veteran Matt Prater with Bass sidelined. Prater was perfect in the first two weeks before missing one of his two field-goal attempts last Thursday night in the win over the Miami Dolphins. The 41-year-old will be a strong starting kicking option in fantasy lineups again in Week 4 in a matchup against the 0-3 New Orleans Saints.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker remains a strong fantasy option with a high floor, despite only having one field goal attempt in the team's recent loss. Dicker is still perfect on all his field goal attempts (eight) and extra points this season, reinforcing his status as matchup-proof. The Chargers' offense is widely expected to bounce back at home against a vulnerable Washington Commanders defense, leading to multiple scoring drives and more field goal opportunities than in their previous game. RotoBaller projects Dicker as K6 this week. Fantasy managers should trust this potent offense to rebound and can confidently start Dicker in their lineups.
