Which Kickers Are Intriguing for Week 4?
Blake Grupe, New Orleans Saints (at ATL)
Blake Grupe’s start was very impressive — scoring 22 points in Week 1. Since then, he has only added 14 fantasy points over two weeks. However, Grupe has remained perfect on field goals, with seven, even if he has missed an extra point.

This week, Grupe is on the road but still playing in a dome, which certainly helps his value outside of Caesars Superdome.
The Falcons have played a lot of bend-but-don’t-break defense through the first three weeks. They’ve allowed 11 field goals, so there is certainly an opportunity here for Grupe to rack up some points.
Matt Prater, Arizona Cardinals (vs. WAS)
Matt Prater will make it three games in a row at home as he looks to continue his impressive consistency to open the season. The veteran kicker has a 100% record, averaging two field goals per game and adding eight extra points.

— Arizona Cardinals (@AZCardinals) September 22, 2024
The Cardinals’ offense stumbled a little in Week 3 but should be able to get back to moving the ball effectively against the Commanders. There is every chance that we will see Prater with another couple of field goals and some extra points. A double-digit week is very much in play for Arizona’s kicker.
