Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2025 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Jason Myers - Fantasy Football Rankings, Kicker Streamers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Kacey Kasem looks at all 2025 fantasy football Week 10 kickers -- streamers, starts, sits, targets, avoids, and waiver wire pickups. Our Week 10 rankings and tiers for all of the NFL kickers.

It's a brand new week, and we're bringing the fantasy football kicker streamers, rankings, and starts for Week 10 of the 2025 NFL season. Week 9 reminded fantasy managers just how unpredictable kickers can be. Cam Little knocked in a 68-yard field goal to set a new NFL record, breaking Justin Tucker's mark of 66. It was a beautiful sight to witness as a kicker fan.

As we head into Week 10, bye weeks continue to decimate fantasy lineups. The Cowboys, Chiefs, Bengals, and Titans are all off, meaning no Brandon Aubrey, Harrison Butker, Evan McPherson, or Nick Folk (all top-12 kickers through nine weeks). That's a lot of fantasy production to replace, but solid fill-ins are sitting on waivers.

We're at the point in the season where weather becomes a factor and red-zone trends are clearer. It's the perfect time to stream based on matchup instead of name. Here are the kickers to confidently start this week, as well as the ones worth avoiding.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:

Kicker Streamers to Target for Week 10

Only kickers rostered in fewer than 60% of fantasy football leagues are considered streamers. 

Ka'imi Fairbairn (HOU) vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
53% Rostered

The K1 overall in fantasy football, but Fairbairn is somehow still under-rostered. I talk about him almost every week because he's doing all the heavy lifting for the Texans.

In Week 9 alone, Fairbairn piled up all 15 of Houston's points, going 5-for-6 on field goals. His lone miss came from 51 yards out, but he connected on the remaining five. The kicker was still able to produce, even with C.J. Stroud sidelined by a concussion. With Davis Mills under center, the team may not have finished drives, but they consistently got Fairbairn into scoring position.

This week's matchup with Jacksonville isn't the friendliest, as they permit the third-fewest points to opposing kickers. Even so, Fairbairn remains Houston's entire scoring offense right now. Playing at NRG Stadium also gives the kicker weather-proof conditions.

The contest projects as a low total, which should make field goals even more valuable. Fairbairn has hit at least nine points in six of eight outings this season, and he's already had his bye. If he's still available in your league, fix that now. He's the definition of reliable, and his 50-plus yard range makes him a high-floor play.

Will Reichard (MIN) vs. Baltimore Ravens
20% Rostered

In Week 9's 27-24 win over the Lions, Reichard once again came through like he has all season. He drilled all five of his kicks including a clutch 50-yard boot.

He's now 16-for-18 on field goal tries and perfect on extra points this year. Reichard currently ranks as the K9 in fantasy scoring. His six makes from 50 or beyond are the second-most in the NFL, saying plenty about his confidence and the Vikings' trust in him.

He'll stay indoors in Week 10 as he takes on the Ravens, a defense that often forces stalled drives and, in turn, field goal attempts. Reichard's 62-yarder earlier in the season proves Minnesota isn't scared to let him kick from anywhere.

With J.J. McCarthy and the offensive line healthy again, Reichard should see plenty of scoring chances. His reliable leg and a coaching staff that clearly believes in him make him an easy top-10 play this week.

Andy Borregales (NE) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
4% Rostered

After a rocky start to his rookie campaign, Borregales finally settled in. He was flawless in Week 9, connecting on his lone field goal and all three extra points in New England's 24-23 victory over the Falcons.

Through nine games, he's 12-of-14 on field goals and 24-of-26 on extra points, including two from 50-plus.

Tampa Bay is a solid matchup when streaming kickers, and that's who Borregales faces in Week 10. The Bucs give up steady yardage and can cause stalled drives inside the 30, creating field goal opportunities. They've been middle-of-the-pack in allowing touchdowns in the red zone, meaning opponents regularly settle for three.

The game carries a tight spread, with a projected mid-to-high total perfect for kicker volume. That should translate to several extra point tries and a couple of field goal attempts for Borregales. He's earned the coaching staff's trust after the rare early misses and is a perfect addition to rosters searching for a safe kicker this week.

 

Kickers to Avoid for Week 10

Cam Little (JAC) at Houston Texans
19% Rostered 

That 68-yarder from Week 9 was incredible, no doubt. Let's not pretend this one massive kick changes everything. Little has the leg strength, and we knew that based off the 70-yarder he hit in the preseason. Accuracy has been his real issue.

He's 12-for-17 on field goals (76.5%) and had missed three kicks in the two games before Sunday's contest. The Jaguars clearly trust him from deep, but he's struggling with those shorter kicks. Sure, the distance is nice for fantasy, but the inconsistency is frustrating.

He'll face the Texans this week, a defense allowing the fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers this year. The Houston defense is effective at forcing teams to score touchdowns or punt before they get into field goal range, leaving little middle ground.

Little is a fun dart throw if you're hoping for a boom game, but his floor leans more toward bust. I understand starting him as a Hail Mary, hoping he tries long kicks. Otherwise, sit him as his accuracy and the matchup work against him in this one.

Joshua Karty (LAR) at San Francisco 49ers
24% Rostered

It's been tough sledding for Karty this season, as he missed his only field goal last week (a 39-yarder). That makes four different contests this season where he's had a miss. He's connected on just 10-of-15 field goal attempts this season (66.7%) and 23-of-26 extra point attempts (88.5%).

Head coach Sean McVay has voiced frustration about the special teams unit, telling reporters they "have to get better." Something we already know, and something you don't want to hear from the coach going into a matchup with the 49ers.

San Francisco's defense dries up kicker opportunities. They rarely let drives reach the 30-yard line, often forcing opponents to go for it or punt. And the 49ers also give up the ninth-fewest fantasy points to kickers.

If the Rams fall behind, expect aggression on fourth downs, which could lead to fewer field goal attempts for Karty. There's too much going against him this week to trust him in your lineup.

Parker Romo (ATL) at Indianapolis Colts
3% Rostered 

Romo has been fine this season, but "fine" won't cut it when consistency is the issue. He's 11-of-14 on field goal attempts and 10-of-11 on PATs, but he's missed kicks in three separate weeks. Week 9's miss came on a would-be game-tying point after attempt late in the fourth quarter, costing the team a shot at overtime.

The neutral-site game in Berlin doesn't help much. Add travel fatigue to an offense already struggling to sustain drives, and his ceiling takes a hit.

He'll face the Colts in Week 10, a team allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers this season. That's not the matchup you want when your kicker is shaky under pressure.

Romo's range gives him some upside, but this is not the week you want to rely on it. There are tons of safer options available at the position this week.
