Atlanta Falcons kicker
Parker Romo will kick again for the team in their Week 4 tilt on Sunday against the visiting Washington Commanders, according to D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The Falcons moved on from former kicker
Younghoe Koo after a disappointing performance in the season opener and replaced him with Romo in Week 2. Romo made all five of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in the Week 3 win over the Minnesota Vikings. However, it didn't last, as he missed both of his field-goal attempts in last week's 30-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers. For now, the Falcons will stick with the 28-year-old heading into Week 4. Romo has gone 16-for-19 in his NFL career on field goals and has missed one of his 10 extra-point tries. Fantasy managers should look for better streaming options.

Dallas Cowboys kicker
Brandon Aubrey remains a quiet fantasy standout, staying perfect through Week 3 while the Cowboys' offense sputtered after
CeeDee Lamb's exit. With Dallas struggling to finish drives, Aubrey's reliable leg became the difference, racking up field goals and keeping the scoreboard moving. That trend could continue Sunday night against the Packers. Green Bay's defense has been stingy in the red zone, and with Lamb likely sidelined, Dallas may once again find it difficult to punch in touchdowns. That sets up Aubrey for a busy evening and a solid fantasy floor. In leagues that reward long kicks, he's even more valuable thanks to his strong range and steady accuracy. If you need a dependable kicker, Aubrey is a prime start for Week 4. The combination of an offense missing its top playmaker and a tough opponent makes him one of the safer--and potentially higher-ceiling--fantasy kicking options on the slate.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus looks to shake off the blocked kick with under a minute left in Week 3 and bounce back as the Packers head to Dallas to play the Cowboys in Week 4. McManus didn't get too many opportunities in Week 3 with the Packers only scoring one touchdown, but he did make a 39-yard field goal, and his 43-yard attempt was blocked, which would have given the Packers a 13-10 lead. Instead, the Browns moved into field goal range themselves and booted home a game-winning field goal. The Packers are an excellent offense, but that doesn't always translate into giving the kicker a lot of runway for fantasy scoring each week. In a matchup like this against the Cowboys in Week 4, McManus enters the streaming kicker conversation as somebody who could get some volume in a controlled, indoor environment like AT&T Stadium.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker
Jake Elliott hit all three of his extra point attempts last week against the Rams, but did not try any field goals. The Philly offense started off slow against Los Angeles, going three-and-out on four straight drives in the first half then following that up with a fumble on their second play in the third quarter. It was uncharacteristic for this team and Elliott is still yet to miss a kick this season. Fantasy managers should continue to rely on him as he enters a Week 4 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Cleveland Browns kicker
Andre Szmyt did his best to make people forget about a rough start to the season, hitting a game-winning 55-yard field goal to down the Green Bay Packers 13-10 in Week 3. He will look to keep it going on the road against the Detroit Lions in Week 4. Overall, Szmyt has hit four of his five field goals and all but one of his five extra points through three games. That being said, the Browns have not been great on offense this season, which has not afforded Szmyt many scoring chances. He is not a recommended fantasy option heading into Week 4 against Detroit.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker enters Week 4 as a must-start fantasy option after his game-winning heroics against the Denver Broncos last week. Dicker has been perfect this season, making all seven of his field goal attempts and every extra point. Dicker is essentially matchup-proof at this point. The Chargers' offense is expected to move the ball effectively against the New York Giants' struggling defense, creating numerous scoring opportunities for the kicker. RotoBaller projects Dicker as K3 this week, and fantasy managers should see Dicker as a must-start kicker every week.

After converting all of his attempts in his first two games of the season, Buffalo Bills kicker
Matt Prater came back to earth somewhat in a Week 3 win over the Miami Dolphins. Prater badly missed a 39-yard field goal to the left, but he hit a game-sealing 48-yarder late in the fourth quarter and nailed all four extra-point tries. Having already cashed in on seven field goals and nine PATs, the 41-year-old ranks fifth among kickers in fantasy points this season. He'll enter a juicy matchup in Week 4 versus the New Orleans, who have thus far given up the third-most fantasy points to kickers. On the other hand, the Bills are averaging a robust 34 points per game. Their top-tier offense has given Prater plenty of opportunities this year, and that's unlikely to change on Sunday against perhaps the worst team the Bills will face this year.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker
Daniel Carlson is coming off a quiet Week 3 with just one field goal attempt, but the upcoming matchup against the Chicago Bears projects to provide much more scoring opportunity. The Raiders offense has been moving the ball effectively, ranking inside the top 10 in passing yards, and a high-paced game environment should set Carlson up for multiple attempts. After producing starter-worthy numbers in the first two weeks, Carlson remains firmly in play as a low-end K1 and is a strong streaming choice for fantasy managers seeking stability at the kicker position in Week 4.

Arizona Cardinals kicker
Chad Ryland should be viewed as a middle-of-the-pack kicking option when his team takes on the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday. So far this season, the Seahawks rank 10th against kickers, while Ryland is the No. 13 fantasy kicker, making Thursday an average matchup at best. The third-year kicker made 88% of his field goal attempts last season and is off to a solid 6-for-8 start this season, keeping him on the fringes of being a fantasy starter in deeper leagues. This week, however, managers should look for a stronger starting candidate.

Seattle Seahawks kicker
Jason Myers is fresh off a huge week in which he scored 17 fantasy points. While he is unlikely to repeat that feat in Week 4 against the Arizona Cardinals, he has another chance to score double-digit fantasy points. The Seahawks' offense, defense, and special teams are all working together in harmony right now. Each unit is creating scoring opportunities. The Seahawks' offense has especially come a long way in new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak's system over the first three weeks of the season. The offensive pieces look comfortable and are moving the ball effectively. That is giving Myers plenty of chances to kick field goals and extra points. The Seahawks should have no issues moving the ball against a Cardinals defense that has been improved in 2025, but still not elite. If you do not have a better option, Myers is a worthy kicker in Week 4.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that kicker
Graham Gano (groin) did not practice on Wednesday and will be out on Sunday in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Not only will Gano miss Week 4 after injuring his groin during pre-game warmups on Sunday night before the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but he's expected to land on Injured Reserve, which would keep him out for a minimum of four games. With that in mind, the Giants signed former Atlanta Falcons kicker
Younghoe Koo to their practice squad on Tuesday. New York also has
Jude McAtamney on their practice squad, so one of the two should be called up to the active 53-man roster by Sunday to kick against the Chargers. Either way, fantasy managers should be looking for better kicking streamers.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that kicker
Tyler Bass (groin, hip) is "moving in the right direction," but the team is unsure when he will return from Injured Reserve, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Bass will have to miss at least one more game while on IR, but he'll be eligible to make his 2025 debut in Week 5 against the division-rival New England Patriots. Given the fact that there's still no timetable on the 28-year-old's return, it seems unlikely he'll play next week. The Bills have been using veteran
Matt Prater with Bass sidelined. Prater was perfect in the first two weeks before missing one of his two field-goal attempts last Thursday night in the win over the Miami Dolphins. The 41-year-old will be a strong starting kicking option in fantasy lineups again in Week 4 in a matchup against the 0-3 New Orleans Saints.

The New York Giants are signing former Atlanta Falcons kicker
Younghoe Koo to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Koo landed on the free-agent market early this year after the Falcons replaced him with
Parker Romo. The 31-year-old will now get another chance in the NFC East with regular Giants kicker
Graham Gano dealing with a groin injury that he suffered in pre-game warmups before the Sunday night loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Gano was considered questionable to play in Week 3 after his injury, but he eventually made a 25-yard field goal try in the fourth quarter. If Gano is unable to play in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers, Koo could be brought up to serve as the kicker on Sunday. Koo has an 85.8% success rate on FGs in his eight NFL seasons, but he went just 25-for-34 (73.5%) last year and missed one of his three attempts in Week 1 with Atlanta before being cut. For now, Koo should remain on the waiver wire in all fantasy leagues.

Indianapolis Colts kicker
Spencer Shrader got off to a red-hot start to the season, hitting all nine of his field-goal attempts through the first two weeks. He finally misfired in a Week 3 win over the Tennessee Titans, hitting two of his three field goals but nailing all five of his extra-point tries. Shrader's early-season production has been a pleasant surprise for the Colts and fantasy gamers alike as he now has 43 points through three weeks. He will be a solid fantasy option heading into a Week 4 road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.

New York Giants kicker
Graham Gano (groin) suffered a groin injury while warming up for Sunday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3. He is now questionable to kick in the primetime contest, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The 38-year-old has been perfect with his leg so far this season, going 5-for-5 on field goals and 4-for-4 on extra points. He entered this week as the overall K10 in fantasy football, making him a borderline starter in managers' lineups. Given the timing of Gano's injury, it's most likely too late to replace Gano in fantasy football lineups this week. Even if managers have the opportunity to replace him, the only remaining options are
Harrison Butker,
Tyler Loop, and
Jake Bates, who are likely rostered in most leagues. New York may attempt two-point conversions after touchdowns, depending on the veteran's status.
