Weekly kicker fantasy football rankings offer a comprehensive overview of the top-performing kickers for each week, compiled from the insights of eight seasoned fantasy experts: Matt Bowen, Mike Clay, Tristan H. Cockcroft, Daniel Dopp, Eric Karabell, Liz Loza, Eric Moody, and Field Yates. These rankings, which are released every Tuesday, factor in several elements such as a player’s skill level, their role in the offense, and the strength of their matchup for the week. The rankings are also updated throughout the week as new information and analysis emerge.
In Week 15, the kicker rankings have some clear frontrunners. Jake Bates from the Detroit Lions takes the top spot with an average rank of 1.4, thanks to his consistent performances and a favorable matchup against Buffalo. Close behind, Cameron Dicker from the Los Angeles Chargers ranks second, with an average of 2.8. He faces Tampa Bay, and his reliable kicking has earned him a high ranking from most experts.
Further down the list, Chase McLaughlin from Tampa Bay comes in third with an average of 4.6, due to a matchup against the Chargers. Nick Folk from Tennessee ranks fourth, followed by Will Reichard from Minnesota in the fifth spot. Justin Tucker, renowned for his accuracy, holds the sixth position, despite facing a tough challenge against the New York Giants.
The rankings also include a few surprises. For example, Ka’imi Fairbairn from Houston, who faces Miami, lands in seventh place, while Zane Gonzalez from Washington follows in eighth. Tyler Bass from Buffalo and Chris Boswell from Pittsburgh rank ninth and tenth, respectively, with both kickers facing challenging matchups but maintaining consistent performances. The lower part of the rankings features several more familiar names, including Harrison Butker (Kansas City), Jason Sanders (Miami), and Jake Elliott (Philadelphia).
These rankings provide a clear view of which kickers are expected to perform well in Week 15 based on their recent form and the strength of their opponents, helping fantasy football managers make informed decisions when setting their lineups.
