Week 2 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Justin Tucker - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Kickers

Week 2 ranks, tiers, and start/sit advice for 2020 fantasy football kickers. Gage's weekly K rankings and targets/avoids based on matchups, weather, and teams.

Week 1 is in the books. We saw big upsets, and we saw some teams just steamroll their opponents into the ground. One thing that remained true in every game was that kickers still matter. 

Our top scorers from Week 1 was Green Bay Packers’ kicker Mason Crosby and Josh Lambo of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Each guy had 12, and Crosby could have had even more if his offense was less efficient. 

For the most part, you can probably rock a lot of your starters from last week, but you could have a few guys you’re trying to fade. If that’s the case, these are the guys you should look to be targeting.

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

 

Week 2 Kickers To Start & Stream: Tiers & Rankings

Tier 1 NFL Kickers

1. Justin Tucker (BAL) @ HOU
2. Jason Myers (SEA) vs NE
3. Harrison Butker (KC) @ LAC
4. Mason Crosby (GB) vs DET
5. Greg Zuerlein (DAL) vs ATL

Week 2’s top kicker is going to be the league’s best kicker in Justin Tucker of the Baltimore Ravens. This offense steamrolled the Cleveland Browns in Week 1, and they can do the same against the Houston Texans. The second spot goes to Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers. This offense was electric in Week 1, and, while the New England Patriots Defense flexed their muscles in Week 1, I think Seattle will be able to move the ball and get into scoring positions.

Kansas City Chiefs’ kicker Harrison Butker gets in for the third spot. I’m not convinced about the Los Angeles Chargers’ ability to slow down KC, and I think it’s an offensive onslaught for the Chiefs. Packers kicker Crosby, who was Week 1’s top option, comes in at four. This Packers offense may not put up as many points in Week 2, but they should have no problem scoring against the Detroit Lions. Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein finishes the top five. Dallas struggled somewhat against the Los Angeles Rams, but those struggles should disappear in Week 2 against a lost Atlanta Falcons’ defense.

 

Tier 2 NFL Kickers

6. Younghoe Koo (ATL) @ DAL
7. Ryan Succop (TB) vs CAR
8. Samuel Sloman (LAR) @ PHI
9. Matt Prater (DET) @ GB
10. Robbie Gould (SF) @ NYJ

Atlanta Falcons’ kicker Younghoe Koo is up next. I don’t expect a ton of defense in this game, especially with some of the injuries Dallas sustained on that side of the ball. Plus, Atlanta put up 450 passing yards in a loss. They can throw. Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop is next. This offense wasn’t as electric as expected, but wideout Mike Evans will be healthy. Plus, against an easier defense, they should put up more points.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Samuel Sloman had a solid Week 1, and I think they have an even better matchup against a battered Philadelphia Eagles’ roster. Detroit Lions’ kicker Matt Prater is next. I think Green Bay runs up the score, and they give up garbage points again. Points are still points. San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould rounds out our second tier. The 49ers struggled got upset in Week 1, but their opponent is much easier in Week 2. 

 

Tier 3 NFL Kickers

11. Tyler Bass (BUF) @ MIA
12. Zane Gonzalez (ARI) vs WAS
13. Dan Bailey (MIN) @ IND
14. Ka'imi Fairbairn (HOU) vs BAL
15. Chris Boswell (PIT) vs DEN

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass is our 11th-ranked kicker. This defense can take advantage of the mistakes the Miami Dolphins will give them, and he’ll get scoring opportunities off of it. Next is Arizona Cardinals’ kicker Zane Gonzalez. This offense is explosive, and they can show that off against the Washington Football Team which gives him chances to get points. In the 13 spot, it’s Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey. The Vikings are going to dink-and-dunk all day long against the Indianapolis Colts Defense. However, they’re still not great in the red zone, which is where Bailey comes in.

Houston Texans kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn gets the next spot. If they want to keep up with Baltimore, they will need to air the ball out a lot. Rounding out our top 15 is Pittsburgh Steelers’ kicker Chris Boswell. Boswell is playing outdoors in Denver, and we always love the Denver game. I think Pittsburgh finds a way to move the ball with ease, and, when they get stopped, that thin air will help the ball carry. 

 

Kickers to Avoid

Graham Gano of the New York Giants is in a rough spot in Week 2. The Giants draw the Chicago Bears, and this front is going to have a field day with the Giants’ offensive line. I think it’s going to be a rough outing for the Giants’ offense.

Randy Bullock of the Cincinnati Bengals should be avoided this week. I think the Cleveland Browns are better than the product we saw from them in Week 1. This Bengals’ offense looked bland and unimaginative, and I don’t think they flip the script in Week 2.

Jason Sanders of the Miami Dolphins is our final avoidance play of the week. This offense played rough last week, and the assignment is just as brutal in Week 2 against the Bills. Sit your Dolphins, and I’ll see you in Week 3.
