Welcome to Week 9!

Most of us survived last week’s bye-mageddon, and the NFL goes back to the typical four-team bye this week with the Browns, Buccaneers, Eagles and Jets all off. The kickers who will be off the board include Chase McLaughlin, Jake Elliott, Nick Folk and Andre Szmyt.

Once again, there is no international game on the NFL schedule this week.

This week’s risers include Tyler Loop, Ka’imi Fairbairn, and Jason Myers all of whom have very favorable matchups on the schedule. On the flip side, booters like Harrison Butker, Will Reichard, and Daniel Carlson could struggle versus tougher opponents.

With that said, here are my complete fantasy football kicker rankings for Week 9 of the NFL season.

Be sure to check back all week for daily updates!
