Washington Commanders kicker
Matt Gay hasn't been the most reliable fantasy option this season, failing to score double-digit points since his Week 4 performance against the Atlanta Falcons. Gay has struggled from long range, with three of his four misses coming on attempts of 50 yards or more. As Washington's offense has slowed down recently, the 31-year-old has only attempted one field goal over the past three games, excluding the Week 7 matchup that he missed due to a back injury. The Commanders travel to Madrid, Spain, in Week 11 to take on the Miami Dolphins in what could be a high-scoring game featuring two defenses that are allowing over 25 points per game this season. Gay could have more opportunities in this matchup and carries some streaming value.

Baltimore Ravens kicker
Tyler Loop finished as the K2 in Week 10 despite missing one of his five field goal attempts against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie made four of them from 44, 28, 30, and 22 yards away while knocking through his only extra point attempt. He's now 16-for-18 overall on the season and 23-for-24 on extra points. The Ravens take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 11 after they went for 41 points against them in Week 2. In that game, Loop finished as the K8, and could very well finish even higher now that the team has even more trust in him. Fantasy managers can comfortably start Loop this week as he projects to be a K1 yet again.

San Francisco 49ers kicker
Eddy Pineiro went 2-for-3 on extra point tries and had no field goal attempts in the team's 42-26 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 10. The miss was Pineiro's second of the season, the other also a failed extra point conversion. Pineiro remains perfect on field goal attempts in 2025, having made good on all 19 tries (including six from 50-plus yards out). Pineiro will seek to extend his streak while the 49ers try to rebound in another divisional matchup against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 11. Back in Week 3, Pineiro walked off the Arizona Cardinals with a 35-yard field goal as time expired, handing his team a 16-15 win over their division rivals. Pineiro clocks in with an average of 10.0 fantasy points per game and is projected as a top-10 option for Week 11, making him an excellent option for fantasy football lineups come Sunday.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker
Harrison Butker will face the Denver Broncos on the road in Week 11. Butker is coming off the team's Week 10 bye, but found success heading into the break. Butker has gone 2-for-2 on field goals and 5-for-5 on extra-point attempts in his last two games, marking the first time this season he's been perfect in two straight games. Butker may be less involved against a strong Denver defense, which should be able to limit Kansas City's scoring opportunities. This Chiefs matchup also has a 44.5 O/U, putting it on the lower end of the spectrum this week. Butker is ranked K13 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a viable start, but there are likely better options out there.

Denver Broncos kicker
Wil Lutz enters Week 11 as RotoBaller's 21st overall-ranked kicker in a tough matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. After a lackluster offensive performance altogether in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders, which included Lutz missing one of his two field goal attempts, the Broncos will likely struggle again to produce points as they face one of the league's best defenses once again. Lutz has also now missed one field goal attempt for two weeks in a row, although Week 9 was a blocked field goal. The veteran kicker will look to capitalize on his opportunities once again in what could be another tough defensive battle against the Chiefs.

Detroit Lions kicker
Jake Bates recorded his first missed extra point of the season in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders, but he knocked in all three of his field-goal attempts. Even with the blunder against Washington, Bates leads the NFL in extra-point makes (33) and attempts (34) through 10 weeks. The Lions have a difficult road matchup in Week 11 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Philadelphia ranks in the top ten in the NFL in per-game opponent scoring (21.3 points per game). Still, the Lions have one of the league's highest-scoring offenses so far this season and could provide Bates with some opportunities to put points on the board. It's not his most favorable matchup, but Bates still profiles as a solid starting kicker option for fantasy managers in Week 11.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker
Jake Elliott made his only extra point attempt and his only field goal attempt from 39 yards in his most recent performance against the Green Bay Packers. While Elliott found his accuracy again, he was not given enough opportunities to put up any significant fantasy numbers in a game that ended 10-7. This week he'll kick against the Detroit Lions, who allow just 22.2 points per game to opposing offenses. Elliott has only made multiple field goals in one game this season, and is best left off of rosters until he shows some more fantasy production.

Miami Dolphins kicker
Riley Patterson is a fringe starting option this week as the Dolphins face the Commanders in Madrid. Patterson made a 46-yard field goal in his only field goal attempt last week against the Bills, but he did miss an extra point attempt for the first time this season. He's 14-for-16 on field-goal attempts on the year, missing his only try from longer than 50 yards. Before last week's miss, he was perfect on extra points, and he's now 22-for-23. The Commanders have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to kickers this season, and the stadium in Madrid has a retractable roof that should keep the weather from being a factor. Patterson is the No. 17 kicker in RotoBaller's Week 11 rankings, making him a potential fill-in starter if needed and a solid option even though he doesn't have elite distance or upside.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that University of North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick has "not and will not pursue any NFL head-coaching vacancies." "I have great respect and genuinely care for the New York Giants organization and both the Mara and Tisch families. The New York Giants played an important role in my life and in my coaching journey. It was a privilege for me to work for the Mara family and be a member of Coach Parcells' staff for over a decade. However, despite circulating rumors, I have not and will not pursue any NFL head coaching vacancies," Belichick said in a statement. The New England Patriots legend won two Super Bowl rings with the Giants before joining the Pats, but he's not considering leaving the college ranks after the Giants fired head coach Brian Daboll earlier this week.

Will Reichard of the Minnesota Vikings should be considered one of the top fantasy kickers when his team takes on the Chicago Bears in Week 11. A top-10 overall fantasy kicker through the halfway point of the NFL season, Reichard has converted all 17 of his extra points and 18 of 20 field goals, including six of them from beyond 50 yards. The Bears are allowing the fourth-highest yards per carry average and surrendering passing touchdowns at the third-highest rate in the league, which could give an erratic Vikings offense an opportunity for a bounce-back week. In an indoor venue against a below-average defense, Reichard is ranked as RotoBaller's No. 4 kicker for Week 11.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker, who has missed only two field goals all season, remains a highly accurate and reliable fantasy option. This week, he heads to Jacksonville, where the game is expected to be played in pleasant 77-degree sunny weather at kickoff, ideal conditions for a kicker. Against a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has shown vulnerability to allowing points, Dicker should get multiple scoring opportunities. His consistent accuracy, combined with favorable game conditions, makes him a high-floor starter. Dicker is projected as K6 this week and is a must-start in all formats.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus has been a hit-or-miss option for fantasy managers this season, but he'll look to right the ship when the Packers head east to MetLife Stadium to square off with the New York Giants in Week 11. McManus has missed at least one field goal in all three games since returning from a quad injury that sidelined him for a pair of games. He's made just 11-of-17 field goals this season after making 20-of-21 field goals last season when replacing
Brayden Narveson early last season. McManus could be on the hot seat if he doesn't shore up his accuracy, which puts his fantasy value deep below the pool of rosterable kickers. For Week 11, McManus is somebody to leave on the waiver wire.

Seattle Seahawks kicker
Jason Myers continues to be an excellent option at kicker in 2025. The Seahawks find themselves kicking a lot of extra points this season. Myers has booted through 10 PATs in the past two weeks, and he has accomplished that feat four times this season. While the touchdowns may not flow as smoothly in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams, Seattle should still be able to move the ball and come away with field goals at the very least. Myers has played his way into the K2 spot on the season. Continuing to be attached to one of the most potent offenses in the NFL is causing Myers to produce his stellar fantasy season. Do not expect Seattle to hang another 44 points on the Rams, but you should feel safe with Myers in your lineup nonetheless.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Thursday that kicker
Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the Week 11 divisional game on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle. Fairbairn injured his quad in the Week 9 loss to the Denver Broncos and will now miss a second straight game. The Texans have a quick turnaround next week with a game on Thursday night against the Buffalo Bills, so it's possible the 31-year-old veteran won't be ready for that one, either.
Matthew Wright filled in for Fairbairn in the Week 10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and made his only field-goal attempt and his only extra-point try in the 36-29 victory. The 29-year-old should be in store for a better day in a cushy matchup against the Titans this weekend, but at best, he's a deep-league streaming option at the kicking position in fantasy.

New England Patriots kicker
Andy Borregales should continue to be a reliable scoring option during Thursday Night Football against the New York Jets in Week 11. After a shaky start to the season, Borregales has found his footing and rattled off an impressive eight-game streak of perfect kicks. During that span, he's 26-for-26 on extra points and 9-for-9 on field goals. He still ranks as the overall K15 this year due to the Patriots' relatively lower frequency of field goal attempts, but managers should remain confident that the kicker will deliver when called upon. In fact, we could see him get more involved this week against the Jets, who have allowed 26.8 offensive points per game (seventh-most in the NFL). From a fantasy perspective, they've allowed the NFL's most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers at 10.8, which is a full point higher than the second-worst team. All the stars are aligning for Borregales to have a big showing on Thursday Night Football. He's a top-12 kicking option heading into Week 11.
