Who Should I Start? Wil Lutz or Blake Grupe

Saturday, October 4, 9:31 AM

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has solidified himself as a reliable kicker when called upon and will look to keep things going against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Unfortunately, this season, he hasn't had many opportunities to do much with an average of just 1.25 field goal attempts through four games. In Week 4, he only accounted for four extra points and wasn't asked to attempt a single field goal in the blowout versus the Bengals. The Eagles' defense could stall the Broncos' defense more often this week than the Bengals did in Week 4, potentially giving Lutz more field goal opportunities in a defensive matchup. It's still likely best to pivot elsewhere for kicker points in Week 5.

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe missed his only field goal attempt from 40 yards in the 26-21 loss to the 49ers in Week 2. He is now 2-for-4 on field goals and 4-for-4 on extra points on the season. Grupe looks to rebound against the Seahawks, who allowed Chris Boswell to convert three field goals from 40+ yards last week. Despite the matchup, Grupe can remain off fantasy radars this week.
