The Top Kickers To Start in Week 9
Blake Grupe, New Orleans Saints
Analysis by Kyle Soppe | Grupe has reached double-digit fantasy points four times this season, and three have come at home. So yeah, I’m happy to roll him out there against the Bears this week!

Derek Carr may not seem like the best quarterback to support kicker production, but with four teams on bye and another handful dealing with backups under center, Carr isn’t a bad option to count on when it comes to putting your kicker in scoring situations.
Harrison Butker, Kansas City Chiefs
Analysis by Kyle Yates | The Kansas City Chiefs offense sputtered in Week 8 against the Denver Broncos, but they should be back up and firing on all cylinders this week against the Miami Dolphins in a potential battle for the AFC crown.
There are going to be points flying up on the board this week, and Harrison Butker is going to see the field plenty in this matchup. He’s a solid top-five play at the kicker position going into Week 9.
