Week 11 Kicker Streamers
Here are a few kickers to consider streaming in your Week 11 lineups. As the conditions begin to change with winter coming, note whether games are indoors or those who might be subject to inclement weather when choosing kickers for the upcoming week.
Dustin Hopkins, Los Angeles Chargers
Despite bouncing from Washington to Los Angeles, Hopkins is off to a career year and has been nearly perfect since joining the Chargers. he has converted on all 5 of his field-goal attempts and is 6-of-7 on extra points.
In Week 11, the Chargers take on the Pittsburgh Steelers, who tied the winless Detroit Lions and should have lost to the Chicago Bears. I don’t see how they can slow down Justin Herbert, Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen, and Mike Williams, especially if T.J. Watt is out. This game could get out of reach quickly. Hopkins is a fantastic K streaming option for Week 11.
Randy Bullock, Tennessee Titans
Randy Bullock was 3-for-3 on FGs and made both of his extra points as the Titans knocked off the Saints in Week 10. He has been perfect over the last five weeks, going 9-of-9 on FGs and 17-of-17 on XPs. Despite this team not having Derrick Henry or Julio Jones, they continue to roll.
In Week 11, the Titans face the Houston Texans. They’re 24th in points allowed to Ks at 8.4 and are No. 29 in points allowed as a defense (28) per game. Tennessee, at this rate, could hang 35 on the Texans. Bullock should be busy this week.
Chase McLaughlin, Cleveland Browns
It’s safe to say the Browns had a game to forget last week as they were blown out by the Patriots 45-7. When you score only 7 points, it’s not a great day for the kicker either. But hey, on the bright side, at least Chase McLaughlin made it on his only action.
Things should turn around for McLaughlin and the Browns this week as they take on the still-winless Lions. McLaughlin is 13-of-15 on FGs and a perfect 24-of-24 on XPs. Cleveland gets Nick Chubb back and should have a much better outing against Detroit. McLaughlin is in streaming consideration for Week 11 in fantasy.
