Who Should I Start? Zane Gonzalez or Daniel Carlson

Saturday, November 8, 3:41 PM

Atlanta Falcons kicker Zane Gonzalez will make his season debut on Sunday in Germany in a matchup against the Colts. The 30-year-old last played for Washington in 2024, which included six regular-season games and all three of the team's postseason contests. In all, Gonzalez was 12-for-15 on field goal attempts and 27-for-27 on extra points. Since entering the league in 2017, the Arizona State product owns an 80 percent success rate on field goal attempts, and he'll look to bring some stability to the position after both Younghoe Koo and Parker Romo were unable to make it through the season as the team's kicker. Sunday's contest has a relatively high over/under of 48.5, but the Falcons are projected for only 21 points, so there are likely better options on the waiver wire for fantasy managers looking for a streaming option at kicker.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson hasn't been able to offer fantasy managers much value over the last few weeks. Over the last three games, Carlson is 1-for-2 on field goal attempts, while making 3-of-4 extra point attempts. The 30-year-old hasn't been great this season, but he also doesn't get a ton of chances. The promising news is that Carlson is heading into a favorable matchup in Week 11. The Raiders will face off against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night. The Cowboys have struggled to contain anyone this season, so the Raiders should be able to get into scoring position. Carlson isn't an ideal fantasy option, but he should offer better value than he has the past few weeks.
