Zane Gonzalez News
Monday, November 2, 5:52 PM
The Miami Dolphins will stick with kicker Zane Gonzalez for Week 9 against the Detroit Lions, head coach Jeff Hafley told David Furones of the Sun Sentinel. Gonzalez's job security was called into question after he missed a field goal in the Dolphins' loss against the Patriots on Sunday, but it sounds like his roster spot is safe for at least one more week. The missed kick is certainly a blemish on his stats, but Gonzalez has still been respectable, going 5-for-5 on extra points and 2-for-3 on field goals in two games since joining the team. With that being said, the Dolphins don't score quite enough to get Gonzalez on the weekly fantasy radar, and we can't ignore last week's missed kick entirely. There are better streaming options than Gonzalez for Week 9.

Riley Patterson News
Thursday, November 12, 7:09 AM
Kicker Riley Patterson, who was signed on Wednesday, will be the Baltimore Ravens' kicker for their Monday night game against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, special teams coordinator Anthony Levine told Jamison Hensley of ESPN. The Ravens also signed kicker Harrison Mevis to the practice squad for depth behind Patterson. The 27-year-old Patterson comes to the Ravens after going 7-for-9 on his field-goal attempts and 5-for-6 on extra points in five games this year for the Miami Dolphins as their placekicker. He will be taking over for Jake Moody, who was Baltimore's Week 9 kicker before the Atlanta Falcons signed him off the practice squad on Tuesday. In five-plus NFL seasons, Patterson has made 86.6% of his 112 field-goal attempts (7-for-14 from 50-plus yards) and 96.1% of his 154 extra-point attempts with six different teams. The Ravens will be starting new quarterback Jacoby Brissett for the first time this year in Week 10 on Monday Night Football, which should be a boost to their offense over Joe Fagnano, but fantasy managers should have better options at kicker than Patterson.
