Nick Folk a Reliable Low-Volume Option
Nick Folk presents with more risk for this weekend's matchup with the hosting Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Los Angeles, California, native has yet to miss a kick during his second tenure with the Jets. He's a perfect 3-for-3 on both extra-point attempts and field goal tries through the first two weeks of 2025. While he's been precise in recent seasons, Folk falls victim to New York's reduced pace of play, as the team ranks near the bottom of the league with 109 offensive plays run (sixth-fewest). To further the case against the veteran, quarterback Justin Fields (concussion) will be replaced by journeyman signal-caller Tyrod Taylor, adding an extra variable. It's possible Baker Mayfield and the Bucs force New York to play at an elevated pace, but there should be better options out there to slot into fantasy managers' lineups at kicker. Folk ranks as RotoBaller's K31 this week.
