Who Should I Start? Wil Lutz or Tyler Bass

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz will look to get scoring opportunities against another difficult defensive matchup this week in the Green Bay Packers. The Packers rank sixth-best in points allowed per game at just 19, and Lutz has been great when being called upon to put it through the uprights, but might lack opportunities in Week 15. Lutz has only had one game all season with more than nine points scored in a game, although the outlier game was 16 points with one 50+ yard field goal in Week 11. It won't be easy to bet on Lutz having a boom week against the Packers, and he comes into Week 15 as RotoBaller's 13th-ranked kicker.

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass (groin, hip) underwent surgery on his groin/hip and will not kick again this season, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Bass will end up missing the entire 2025 season and will close out the year on Injured Reserve. Veteran Matt Prater has been filling in for Bass all year in Buffalo and has made 17 of his 19 field-goal attempts (89.5%) and 34 of his 37 extra-point tries in 12 games played. In fantasy football, Prater has been the No. 14 kicker in terms of overall points, and he'll definitely be in play for the upcoming Week 14 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals and their generous defense. Bass signed a four-year contract extension with Buffalo in 2023, so he should be back with the team next year if he's recovered from his injuries.
