Should I start or sit Jake Elliott for fantasy football in Week 11 (2024)? Read our fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks and fantasy lineup recommendations.
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: K2
ANALYSIS: Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is just the 26th ranked kicker on Sleeper this season. He simply does not attempt enough field goals to be fantasy relevant on a week-to-week basis. There are several reasons for this. For starters, his accuracy hasn't been great -- he's converted on just 80% of his kicks this season.

His struggles with long distance kicks could lead the team to prefer to punt in those situations going forward. Another factor in his low fantasy output is the team's ability to score touchdowns and convert in the red zone. Philly is 10th in the league in red zone TD scoring percentage, which takes away from Elliott's ability to earn more points.
There are simply so many that have fared better than the Eagles' kicker this season that it doesn't make much sense to start him, especially when many can likely be found in free agency or on waivers.

Rhamondre Stevenson - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end RB2 ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots' running back room has been heavily analyzed all summer long. TreVeyon Henderson's youth and explosiveness have consistently caught drafters' attention more often than Rhamondre Stevenson’s safer floor and secured volume. The two saw a similar workload last season until Stevenson […]
Jaylen Warren - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start as RB2 in PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: After three seasons as the Steelers' RB2 behind Najee Harris and making zero starts, Jaylen Warren finally took the starting job in 2025 and silenced many of his critics. He admittedly got off to a slow start, but really got going following a […]
Marvin Harrison Jr. - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start as WR3 in 12-Team PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Are NFL fans being too harsh on Marvin Harrison Jr.? The Ohio State product was picked fourth overall in 2024 and had an objectively solid rookie season, which was unfortunately overshadowed by Brian Thomas Jr., Malik Nabers, and Ladd McConkey's outstanding rookie […]
David Montgomery - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: The Houston Texans shelled out a decent amount of cash, for an RB at least, to running back David Montgomery to have him join their team. He's now set to take over the Joe Mixon role, which was quite productive in 2024, before an injury essentially […]
Tony Pollard - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Pollard will be the lead back for the Tennessee Titans for yet another season. There may not be much to get excited about. While the team overhauled its coaching staff in the offseason, quarterback Cam Ward doesn't appear to have made much progress. It's controversial […]
