Wil Lutz Starting Slow With 49ers Game Upcoming

Saturday, October 3, 4:35 AM

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has started slow over the first three weeks of the 2026 season, converting three of just four field goal attempts on the year. Lutz finished a Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Rams 0-for-1 with a miss from 43 yards. His long field goal this year was from 45 yards, which came in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, while he also made a kick from 31 yards in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Lutz is a perfect 5-for-5 on his point-after attempts. He is RotoBaller's 28th-ranked kicker in Week 4 and is projected to score eight fantasy points against the 49ers.

Evan McPherson News

Evan McPherson Could Boom In Week 5

Friday, October 9, 1:16 PM

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson will face the Miami Dolphins on the road in Week 5. McPherson has been the model of consistency, knocking through all his kicks again in the Week 4 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Cincinnati kicker nailed his lone 29-yard field goal attempt and both of his extra point attempts against the Jaguars. McPherson will have the opportunity to score more points this week at Miami. The Dolphins offense has been far below league average, and their defense has arguably been worse. The Bengals are listed as heavy road favorites with a high probability of blowing out the Dolphins. If the Bengals put forth a strong offensive performance, like they are certainly capable of, then McPherson should be kicking often throughout this weekend's contest. The Bengals offense will be without several key contributors, but should be able to get things rolling without them. McPherson is ranked K3 in our RotoBaller Week 5 rankings, making him one of the best kicker options this week.
