Top Kicker Streamers for Week 6
Week 6 Byes: Pittsburgh Steelers, Green Bay Packers
Brett Maher, LAR (vs. ARI) – 42% rostered
With the Los Angeles Rams offense clicking and the return of Cooper Kupp to the breakfast club, kicker Brett Maher is getting lots of kicking opportunities this year. He has already made ten extra points and three field goals over 50 yards.
The Rams take on the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6, who also have been putting up points. Maher is a good streaming option in what could be a higher-scoring game at home at SoFi.
Matt Gay, IND (at JAX) – 16% rostered
Matt Gay was solid as a rock against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, making three field goals and two extra points. It is uncertain who will be the QB for the Indianapolis Colts next week, with Anthony Richardson going down with a shoulder injury. The confusion with QB might lead to more field goal opportunities than extra points — either way, Gay is streamable.
Greg Joseph, MIN (at CHI) – 11% rostered
The Minnesota Vikings head to Chicago to take on the Chicago Bears this week, and the Bears have been a good matchup for kickers. The Vikings continue to put up points, even without wins, and Joseph is a good bet for Week 6.
Ka’imi Fairbairn, HOU (vs. NO) – 11% rostered
Ka’imi Fairbairn has put up double-digit fantasy points the last three weeks, and the Houston Texans welcome the New Orleans Saints in Week 6. Playing in a dome is a bonus for this offense that has scored 115 points under rookie QB C.J. Stroud. Fairbairn has made ten extra points and 15 field goals so far this year.
