The Top Kickers To Start in Week 1
Cameron Dicker, Los Angeles Chargers
For streaming kickers in fantasy football, you’re eyeing matchups that are going to be high-scoring that will get the kickers onto the field with opportunities. With that in mind, the Chargers’ matchup against Miami figures to see points flying up on the board, and Dicker should be on the field plenty.
Daniel Carlson, Las Vegas Raiders
Looking at this matchup between the Raiders and the Broncos, there’s not a guarantee for a ton of touchdowns going up on the board in this one. That means that we could potentially see a lot of field goal opportunities and that’s where Carlson comes into play.
At the Kicker position in fantasy football, we’re simply looking for players that are going to be on the field and have the chance to put up fantasy points. Carlson should have that chance here on Sunday.
