Welcome to Week 13 of the weekly kicker rankings – the top streaming options at kicker article. The fantasy playoffs are upon us! FFPC playoffs start this week. Other large contests are in their final week. Standard season long leagues are in the home stretch. It is an exciting time.
Looking over things this week there are some great options that have been dropped due to the byes. I’m also happy to see the guys who held these spots for weeks are finally no longer available. People that picked up and held Chris Boswell and Jake Bates are sitting pretty heading into the playoffs. Given there are a lot of games this week on Thursday and Friday, we will be restricting the article to just players available on Sunday and Monday. Let’s get into it.
Again, we are focusing on kickers available in at least 40% of yahoo leagues meaning they are likely on the wire in most home leagues and even a large percentage of FFPC leagues.

Kicker Streamers for Week 13
Younghoe Koo (Available 45%) vs. Los Angeles Chargers
Possibly my favorite kicker in the league and not just because he has a really cool name. Younghoe Koo has top 3 talent at the position. He is available primarily for two reasons. One, he was dropped because of the Falcons bye in Week 12. Two, he was dropped because he had an atrocious Week 10, going 1-4 on FG Attempts. I’m actually a bit surprised he hasn’t had a better year so far. With Atlanta adding Kirk Cousins in the off season, I expected a huge year from Koo.
Instead, he has been solid but surely not spectacular. All of the ingredients are still there though for top level production. Specifically, this week everything is lining up for a solid performance. He is at home in the dome. The Chargers’ defense is solid, but Atlanta should be able to move the ball well enough to get into field goal position. Lastly, the elite talent is still there.
Will Lutz (Available 77%) vs. Cleveland Browns
It’s a bit shocking Will Lutz is available at this percentage. He is No. 5 overall in total points and put up a massive 22 points last week. If you are lucky enough to have him on your waiver wire, I would snatch him up and consider a longer-term hold (Bye in week 14 is a concern though). He is the only outdoor option on the list, and it is for good reason. This time of year, we need to start to be very conscious of the weather and how it can affect kicking environments. The one place where the outdoor weather can actually be a boost though is Mile High Stadium. The high altitude can allow kicks to truly fly. Everything lines up well for Lutz. The Broncos have been hitting their stride on offense. He has a good matchup and as already mentioned good stadium/conditions. If he is there, grab him this week.
John Parker Romo (Available 89%) vs. Arizona Cardinals
Parker Romo is back for a fourth week in a row as the low owned option. The one thing holding his ownership down is the likelihood that Parker Romo is just a temporary fill in for the Vikings. Will the Thrill Reichard is able to come off IR soon. However, for this week Parker Romo still holds the job. With the exception of one missed XP, he has been perfect in his three games with the Vikings. Last week against Chicago, he went 3-3 on both FGs and XPs and hit the game winner in overtime.
There is no reason to think he won’t have another solid game against the Cardinals this week. The Vikings have had no problem moving the ball. Their only issue is they’ve had several turnovers in the Red Zone over the last few weeks that would have likely been FG opportunities. Both floor and ceiling are there for Parker Romo. Use him while you still can and be ready to pounce on Reichard when he is back from IR.
Good luck in Week 13! If you have any questions, you can find me in the discord where I’m always available to answer any questions or on X!
