Who Should I Start? Wil Lutz or Younghoe Koo

Monday, March 11, 5:21 PM

Despite a previous report saying that he was signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday, kicker Wil Lutz re-signed with the Denver Broncos on an undisclosed two-year deal, according to his agent, John Perla. Lutz will continue to kick for head coach Sean Payton, although moving to Jacksonville would have likely been much more lucrative for his 2024 fantasy value. The Broncos are in rebuilding mode and have moved on from quarterback Russell Wilson, which means their offense could struggle to get into field-goal range more often under Jarrett Stidham or another signal-caller. Lutz finished as the No. 18 fantasy kicker in 2023 by making 30 of his 34 field-goal tries and 29 of his 31 extra points. With Wilson now gone and an offense in flux, Lutz's fantasy ceiling and floor are likely going to be lower in his second year with the team.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo (illness) was added to the injury report on Saturday and is officially questionable to play against the Carolina Panthers in Week 15. While Koo practiced in full all week long, it appears that he started experiencing symptoms sometime this weekend. On a positive note, the Falcons opted against signing a kicker to their active roster, so it appears they're confident that Koo will play. If active, he ranks as a top-10 kicking option versus the Panthers' suspect defense.
