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.

Matt Gay Set to Return in Week 9

Saturday, November 1, 4:09 PM

Washington Commanders kicker Matt Gay (back) has been cleared from the injury report and is set to return for Sunday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks. Gay missed last week's matchup against the Chiefs, but will only end up missing only one game due to the back injury. The 31-year-old has been solid for Washington in seven games this season, making 10 of 14 attempts and all 18 extra points. However, Gay has been a little shaky from 50 or more yards, with those being three of his four misses. Gay should have more opportunities on Sunday with Jayden Daniels back in the lineup and projects as a decent fantasy option.
