Who Should I Start? Wil Lutz or Jason Sanders

Friday, October 18, 12:55 AM

The Denver Broncos had their way with the hosting New Orleans Saints in Week 7 on Thursday night in a 33-10 win, which benefitted kicker Wil Lutz and any fantasy managers that streamed him in a plus matchup. Lutz made all four of his field-goal attempts (long of 52 yards) and all three of his extra-point attempts in what amounted to his best game of the 2024 season. It was a nice bounce-back performance after he made just one field goal and one extra point in the Week 6 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old kicker has been money for the Broncos in seven games this year, missing just one of his 18 field-goal attempts while going 12-for-12 on extra points. In an offense that is improving slowly under rookie quarterback Bo Nix, Lutz will once again be on the streaming radar in a plus Week 8 tilt against the Carolina Panthers.

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is not an ideal start this Sunday when the team squares off against the Indianapolis Colts. Scoring opportunities for the Dolphins offense have been challenging to come by this season. Sanders has hit on 9-of-12 field goal attempts this year and drilled all three of his extra-point attempts. Miami has scored just five touchdowns this year. While the outing against the Colts is one of the better matchups in the league, it's hard to be excited about most of the Dolphins' fantasy assets before quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returns to action. Sanders is the K26 in RotoBaller's Week 7 rankings.
