Every point counts as fantasy football managers are two wins away from a championship. It is time to take extra time to get the most juice out of the squeeze with your kicker. What are the best fantasy kicker streamers to target this week?
Fantasy Football Kicker Streamers for Week 16
Matt Gay, IND (@ ATL) – 35% Rostered
The Indianapolis Colts’ Matt Gay has the second most FG attempts among kickers this season, and he is coming off a double-digit fantasy performance against Pittsburgh in Week 15. Indy heads to Atlanta in Week 16, and Gay should continue to be a great fantasy option.Â
Younghoe Koo, ATL (vs. IND) – 57% Rostered
The Atlanta Falcons play the Colts in Week 15 at home in a dome. Indy has given up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing kickers, and Younghoe Koo has only missed three FGs and one extra point this season; he is always a solid start.
Jake Moody, SF (vs. BAL) – 54% Rostered
The San Francisco 49ers’ kicker Jake Moody continues to be a serviceable option for fantasy managers, especially heading into the playoffs. Moody takes on Baltimore in Week 16 and Washington in Week 17, which are both two fantastic matchups for kickers.

Moody has made the second-most FGs this season as well as the second-most extra points, and he is playing for one of the most potent offenses in the league.
Blake Grupe, NO (@ LAR) – 7% Rostered
Blake Grupe has had a run of rough matchups lately. Weeks 13-15 were bad for the kicker, but he has a chance to bounce back in Week 16 with a good matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The game is at SoFi Stadium, and a dome in the middle of December is a welcome thing for any kicker. The Los Angeles Rams give up the sixth-highest points to fantasy kickers.
Greg Zuerlein, NYJ (vs. WAS) – 7% Rostered
The New York Jets got massacred on Sunday by Miami, and Greg Zuerlein was not given much of an opportunity to shine. This was anticipated, as the matchup against the Dolphins was one of the worst for kickers. I look to Zuerlein to bounce back in Week 16 against the Washington Commanders in the second-best matchups for kickers.
Nick Folk, TEN (vs. SEA) – 18% Rostered
QB Will Levis looks like he is the future of the Tennessee Titans franchise, at least over the last few games, and kicker Nick Folk has been along for the ride. Folk has two great matchups to close out their fantasy season: the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16 and at Houston in the final week. You could consider Folk in both contests.
