Welcome to Week 7 of the fantasy football season, kicker fans! With another week of the season under our belts, we’re continuing to learn more about the landscape of the kicker position.
[Week 7 Half-PPR Fantasy Rankings: QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | FLEX | D/ST | Kickers]
While Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey — the top kicker off draft boards this year — ranks No. 1 on the year averaging 13.7 fantasy points per game, one surprising name has emerged as a viable weekly flex play: Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell, available in 50% of Yahoo leagues.
Through six weeks, Boswell is tied for the second-most field goal attempts in the league (17), including six kicks good from 50+ yards. In Week 7, the Steelers are set to host the New York Jets on “Sunday Night Football” — a matchup currently allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers.
