Top Kicker Streamers for Week 10
Only players rostered in fewer than 65% of fantasy football leagues are considered potential streamers.
Ryan Fitzgerald (CAR) @ New Orleans Saints
5% Rostered
Ryan Fitzgerald has hit a bit of a slump entering Week 10 but is in a prime spot to bounce back. Last weekend, Fitzgerald scored just three fantasy points (three extra points) and missed his first field goal of the season. This marked his fourth straight contest scoring less than 8.0 fantasy points.
However, over the first four games of the season, Fitzgerald averaged 9.3 FPTS per game and even hit the double-digit mark in two of these contests.
This weekend, Fitzgerald will face the New Orleans Saints, who have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to the position this season. Managers should expect him to post a double-digit effort in a top matchup kicking in a dome.
Chad Ryland (ARI) vs. Los Angeles Rams
5% Rostered
Ryland is a bit riskier this weekend, since the Cardinals will turn to rookie Carson Beck, but the 27-year-old enjoyed a dominant effort against this Rams defense earlier this season. Back in Week 5, Ryland led the charge in an improbable upset, going 6-for-6 on field goals. Since this contest (four games), Ryland has averaged 10.0 fantasy points per game and gone 12-for-12 on attempts.
Managers should expect the Cardinals to struggle in the red zone, especially with a rookie QB, which will give Ryland plenty of chances to keep the Cardinals in this contest.

Chris Boswell (PIT) @ Cincinnati Bengals
30% Rostered
Our next option is a prime target for those in shallower leagues. Given that Boswell and the Steelers were off last week, the veteran kicker sits widely available on most waiver wires. Through eight games, Boswell has gone 18-for-23 and has hit all 16 of his extra points. While his modest 8.8 fantasy points per game is not the most impressive, he has hit double-digit marks in three of his last four games.
This weekend, Boswell will face the Bengals again, a team he met in Week 3 when he totaled 12.0 fantasy points while going 3-for-3 on field goals and 3-for-3 on extra points. With this game carrying a hefty 4.95 O/U on DraftKings, managers should expect the Steelers to turn to Boswell from longer ranges to keep up with the high-flying Bengals passing attack.
Charlie Smyth (NO) vs. Carolina Panthers
1% Rostered
Let's round this out with a name for those in deeper leagues. Charlie Smyth didn't open the season as New Orleans' top kicker but has returned to the role after Daniel Carlson failed to keep the job. Smyth spent six games with the Saints last season and went 12-for-16, but as a sharp kicker from longer ranges, he hit four of his six field goals from 50+ yards.
However, following their Week 8 bye, the Saints turned back to Smyth, and he did not disappear. Facing the Browns, the second-year kicker was busy, going 3-for-4 on field goals and converting both extra points.
This weekend, Smyth will face a Panthers defense that enters this contest near the middle of the pack, allowing the 13th-fewest points to the position. However, the unit as a whole has been inconsistent, allowing a hefty 27.4 total points per game, the fourth-highest total in the sport.
Smyth does come with some risk, but he will be in a controlled environment and facing a defense that struggled to keep points off the board. He has deep-league appeal for those looking for an edge.
