Who Should I Start? Zane Gonzalez or Harrison Butker

Tuesday, November 4, 11:09 AM

Veteran kicker Zane Gonzalez is signing with the Atlanta Falcons, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Atlanta is also waiving kicker Parker Romo, who missed a critical extra point in the team's 24-23 Week 9 loss to the New England Patriots. Gonzalez will be the Falcons' third different kicker so far this season, as the team also moved on from longtime kicker Younghoe Koo after Koo had his own late-game struggles earlier this year. Gonzalez has appeared in 69 games for four different NFL teams across six seasons. In six games for the Washington Commanders in 2024, Gonzalez made five of seven field goal attempts and all 19 of his extra-point tries. The Falcons will travel to Germany to play the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Buffalo Bills in Week 9. Butker is coming off his third game of the season without missing a kick. The Chiefs' kicker has attempted at least 4 extra-point attempts in each of the last five games and made 19/20 (95%), giving him a solid floor to build on. Butker should be utilized often in this game with a nearly 53-point total, which is the second-highest total in Week 9. Butker is ranked K9 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a startable fantasy kicker this week.
