Who Should I Start? Zane Gonzalez or Matt Gay

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.

Washington Commanders kicker Matt Gay has been mediocre this season, making 10 of his 14 field goal attempts and nailing all 20 extra points. Gay has struggled from attempts north of 50 yards for his career, and that's continued this season, with three of his four misses coming from attempts 50 yards or longer. The 31-year-old's 71.4% field goal percentage ranks 30th in the league out of 33 qualified kickers, well below the league average of 83.6%. Gay could be a decent option in Week 10 versus the Lions in one of the highest projected games of the week, but Washington's offense also has less juice with starting quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) out for multiple weeks.
