Welcome to Week 5 of the weekly kicker rankings – the top streaming options at kicker article. Week 4 got us back in the black. Two of the three options put up solid games and only one kick was missed across all three kicker’s attempts. We are still in search of a game winning performance from one of the picks in the kicker rankings. I have a ton of Younghoe Koo in season long. He was available in pretty much every draft. Finally, this week I was rewarded for that faith. He came through with a 20-point performance. That is what we are searching for here. Guys with a solid floor but also the upside that will swing the matchup in your favor. Rest assured those spike games will come sooner than later!
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. This week a few of the guys that top the kicker rankings are creeping up in ownership, but you should have no problem finding a good option.

Kicker Streamers for Week 5
Joshua Karty (Available 98%) vs. Green Bay Packers
In this spot last week we had Will Reichard going up against the Green Bay Packers. It was a high scoring matchup, and we are going back to the well again this week. I see this game with a 48.5 O/U putting up a lot of points. Reichard had more XPs than FGs, but the Rams offense will likely be a bit more inefficient at finishing drives than the 4-0 Vikings.
Joshua Karty is a bit of an unknown still as this is his first year in the league. He is however, coming off a game last week where he went 4-5 on FG attempts putting up a nice score. Overall he is 9-10 on the year for FG attempts and a perfect 6-6 on xps. Fire him up in this high scoring affair and let the points pour in.
Daniel Carlson (Available 88%) vs. Denver Broncos
Daniel Carlson remains one of the most talented kickers in the league. The issue for him is the team he plays on. The Las Vegas Raiders haven’t been providing him enough opportunities to be in the top tier of kicker scoring. This week he will be going to the Coors Field of kicking stadiums – Mile High Stadium. Going up against the struggling Denver Broncos, Carlson has a chance to put up a decent score. Carlson will be in the best kicking environment in the league and as such he could easily hit some 50 or even 60-yard field goals.
Chris Boswell (Available 56%) vs. Dallas Cowboys
Our third and final kicker this week is again Chris Boswell. Appearing for the third week in a row, he continues to be added in by savvy owners. I have picked him up in several leagues and have no intention of dropping him.
He is second overall in kicker points on the season. He’s gone 11-11 on field goals and 6-6XPs. What stands out to me is the high number of FG opportunities vs XP opportunities. That means drives are stalling out leading to field goal opportunities. When he gets them, he converts. Lock and load Boswell in Week 5.
Good luck in Week 5! If you have any questions, you can find me in the discord where I’m always available to answer any questions or on X!
