Fantasy football is heading into Week 11 with kickers taking a more prominent role in terms of point scoring. A number of elite kickers will be in action on Sunday, much to the excitement of fantasy team owners.
Seattle Seahawks star Jason Myers took full advantage of Justin Tucker’s bye week in Week 10, and now sits atop the fantasy rankings for kickers. Myers scored six points against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Germany, moving him to a total of 96 fantasy points on the season.
However there will be somewhat of a rubber-band effect between the two players this week. Myers' Seattle team are on a bye week whilst Tucker and the Baltimore Ravens are back in business.

This will likely see Tucker take back the #1 spot for fantasy kickers.

However, it's not just Tucker who can make the difference for your line-up in Week 11.
Who are the best available Fantasy Football kickers in Week 11?
#1 Justin Tucker – Baltimore Ravens vs. Carolina Panthers
Justin Tucker is back after a bye week and will be up against the Carolina Panthers.
The Baltimore Ravens kicker has led the NFL for much of the season in terms of points. In terms of fantasy football points, Tucker has the highest average number of points per game with 10.2. He has missed just two field goals all season and just one extra-point attempt.
Tucker has been given many chances due to the explosiveness of Baltimore’s offense and you can expect him to rack up more points against the Panthers.
#2 Nick Folk – New England Patriots vs. New York Jets
Nick Folk is one of the 2022 season’s best stories.
After failing in his 2019 Chicago Bears tryout, he was forced to sign with the Arizona Hotshots of the Alliance of American Football league. He was then signed as injury cover by the New England Patriots in 2019 and has since established himself as one of the NFL’s best kickers.
Folk's 2022 season has been brilliant. He has a 100% success ratio in PAT kicks, whilst he has missed just two field goals.
The New York Jets have an outstanding pass defense, led by Sauce Gardner. This could limit the productivity of the Patriots’ offense in Week 11, offering Folk more chances to score more fantasy points.
#3 Graham Gano – New York Giants vs. Detroit Lions
Bye weeks for Jason Myers and Ryan Succop catapult Graham Gano into third on this list.
Gano's form in 2022 has been excellent. In nine games, he has a total of 85 fantasy points and averages 9.4 per game. The New York Giants kicker scored seven points in Week 10, which had him ranked 12th in the NFL.
The Detroit Lions defense might not be able to keep the Giants out of the endzone, so expect Gano to get a lot of extra-point attempts in this game.
#4 Daniel Carlson – Las Vegas Raiders @ Denver Broncos
Daniel Carlson’s season can be split into two halves.
In the first half of 2022, he was sensational. Nobody could touch him. The Las Vegas Raiders kicker was hitting everything straight down the middle. Carlson is also still yet to miss a field goal through Week 10. He has made all 18 of his attempts, although he has missed one PAT.
So, what has gone wrong?
The second half of 2022 has seen Carlson’s opportunities on the field totally limited by an anemic Raiders offense.
It’s telling that he only has 18 attempts at field goals, which is just the 13th most in the NFL. He is way behind Ryan Succop and Nick Folk who have 25 and 21 attempts respectively. Carlson isn’t being given the chance to do his job to the best of his ability.
However, a comeback could happen at any moment. If Carlson gets a chance to convert a kick, he will. The Raiders must be better on offense, although a resurgent Denver Broncos defense may mean you should bench Carlson for a further week.
#5 Younghoe Koo – Atlanta Falcons vs. Chicago Bears
Younghoe Koo has enjoyed some of his best moments in the NFL in 2022.
He has gradually emerged as a reliable field goal kicker when under extreme pressure. Koo's overtime winner against the Carolina Panthers was a moment of pure magic, and he hasn’t looked back since.
His fantasy football points tally through Week 10 stands at 81 points, although he is some way off cracking the top three.
What is worrying about Koo is actually the opposite of Daniel Carlson's problems in Las Vegas. Whilst Carlson isn’t getting the chances, Koo is missing the ones he has received.
Despite being brilliant under pressure, the Atlanta Falcons kicker has actually missed four of his 20 attempted field goals heading into Week 11. In Week 10, he managed just three points in what was a forgettable week.
Koo can still score valuable fantasy points for you, but his reliability on regulation kicks is a concern and will lead you to pursue other fantasy football selections.
