Who Should I Start? Younghoe Koo or Daniel Carlson

New York Giants kicker Younghoe Koo is not expected to join the team's active roster after Jude McAtamney was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. Koo and McAtamney were competing for a roster spot amidst an injury to Graham Gano (groin). Initially, reports indicated that Koo had won the job, but that's evidently not the case after McAtamney was signed to the 53-man roster and Koo was left on the practice squad. It goes without saying that fantasy managers should leave Koo on waivers in all fantasy leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has seen his fantasy stock slide as the team's inconsistent offense limits scoring opportunities. Last week, a blocked field goal left Carlson with a single-digit performance, continuing a troubling trend for fantasy managers relying on him for steady production. With Geno Smith and the Raiders facing a tough Colts defense in Week 5, the likelihood of sustained drives and red-zone chances remains low. Carlson's leg strength and accuracy are undeniable, but fantasy owners need opportunities, and the Raiders' offensive struggles make him a risky option this week. For those seeking consistency at kicker, it may be wise to explore alternative streaming options until the Raiders can stabilize their offense and create the scoring chances Carlson needs to return to top-tier fantasy relevance.
