Wil Lutz News

Wil Lutz Is a Week 9 Streaming Option

Saturday, November 7, 7:01 AM

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has converted nine of his last 10 field-goal attempts. He hit from 39 and 45 yards against Kansas City in Week 8 and made all 3 of his tries at Arizona the week before. He also went 5-for-5 on extra points across those two games, as the Broncos scored 28 and 30 points. Lutz is a reasonable streamer for Sunday's trip to Carolina, where the Panthers are allowing 27.6 points per game. RotoBaller ranks him K12 for Week 9. Opponents have attempted only 11 field goals against Carolina in seven games, converting 10. Green Bay scored four touchdowns against the Panthers last week without attempting a field goal, so the favorable scoring matchup can still turn into a day with mostly extra points. Lutz is 14-for-17 on field goals this season and has been perfect on 7 attempts inside 40 yards. He has also made 2 of 3 attempts from 50 or longer, including a 53-yarder, which gives him added appeal in leagues with distance bonuses.

Jason Sanders News

Jason Sanders Hard to Recommend in Week 4

Saturday, October 3, 7:32 AM

New York Jets kicker Jason Sanders has been steady through three games, making five of six field-goal attempts and all five extra points. He has enough leg to help from distance, including a 52-yarder already this season. The problem is the state of the offense around him. Breece Hall, Adonai Mitchell, and Mason Taylor are all out, and the Jets are facing a Chicago defense that just held Philadelphia to seven points. That combination makes it harder to project sustained drives and reliable scoring chances. Sanders is K23 in RotoBaller's Saturday rankings. He can be used in deeper leagues, but standard-league managers should be able to find a better streaming option for Week 4.
