The Top Kickers To Start in Week 5

Jake Elliott, Philadelphia Eagles

Fantasy’s top kicker has made multiple field goals in every game this season, and the floor is high, given the potency of this offense. Jake Elliott has buried four 50-yard field goals already, making him a difference-maker at a position that doesn’t have many of them.

Matt Gay, Indianapolis Colts

Week 4 was a mess if you rostered Matt Gay, but don’t let that sour you on a talented kicker in a good spot this week. Not only does he play a weather-proof game, but his Indianapolis Colts face a Tennessee Titans defense that seems to be opposed to stringing together stops.

You can feel comfortable counting on Gay this week and every week moving forward.
