Who Should I Start? Wil Lutz or Ryan Fitzgerald

Friday, November 21, 6:24 PM

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has agreed to a three-year extension with the organization on Friday. This news comes after Lutz earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors. Lutz went 5-for-5 on field goal attempts, including a game-winner against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11. This new deal will keep Lutz in Denver through 2028. Through 11 games, Lutz has made 17-of-20 field goal attempts, while connecting on all 24 of his extra point kicks. A well-deserved extension for Lutz who has been a viable option for the Broncos over the last three seasons.

Ryan Fitzgerald is a viable fill-in option if a deeper one is needed for Week 10. In last week's game against the Green Bay Packers, the Carolina kicker nailed his only field goal attempt and was 1-for-2 on extra point attempts. The rookie kicker has recorded an average of 7.2 fantasy points this season while hitting all of his field goal attempts in four of the last five weeks. Over the last four weeks, the Saints have allowed 10 points per game to the kicker position, which ranks 28th of all teams. New Orleans has also given up an average of 27 points to opposing teams, which is tied for 24th-most in the league this season. The matchup appears to be favorable for Fitzgerald, and while he is ranked just 18th at kicker by RotoBaller for Week 10, he could provide adequate fantasy totals.
