Wil Lutz Remains an Unreliable Fantasy Option Versus the Eagles

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.

Jake Elliott on a Fantasy Cold Streak

Friday, October 3, 7:27 PM

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott didn't put a ton of points on the board last Sunday against the Buccaneers, but he did stay perfect on the season by making his lone field goal attempt and all four of his extra points. While Elliott is still yet to miss this season, it's not necessarily translating to much fantasy value. He faces the Denver Broncos in Week 5, a defense tied for second-best in the league in terms of opponent points per game (16.8). For right now, there are likely better kickers available in most fantasy leagues.
