Fantasy Football Kicker Streaming Week 6: Shootout in Seattle for Both Legs
Kicker has been a mess this season, with a rash of injuries plaguing franchises around the NFL. I’m here to weed through all the adds and changes, hopefully providing you with the best information possible to find success from week to week.
Bye weeks start this week so you'll be without Daniel Carlson, Ka'imi Fairbairn, Randy Bullock, and whoever the Lions' rotating kicker would have been.

Week 5 Recap
While I didn’t nail any of the top 5 kickers last week, I did have three of my five streamers fall among the 14 highest-scoring legs in Week 5. Wil Lutz scored nine fantasy points as K10, with Matthew Wright and Mason Crosby checking in with eight points tied for K14.
4for4's optimal streamer now has 49 points, which puts him at K4 on the season.
Top Streaming Picks
Matt Ammendola/Other (Cardinals) @ Seahawks
Matt Prater is out this week against the Seahawks and the Cardinals could stick with Ammendola, who missed a game-tying field goal last week, or go with someone else. This contest has one of the highest over/unders of the week, so both teams’ kickers are in play.
Arizona is a 2.5-point road favorite with an implied team total of 26.75. Ammendola is only managed by 1% of fantasy players. I’ll update this as news comes in regarding the kicker of choice for the Cards. *Looks like Ammendola is the guy
