Anders Carlson News
Green Bay Packers kicker Anders Carlson hit one field goal from 33 yards away and converted all three of his extra point attempts during the team's 25-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The rookie came back to earth after his stellar NFL debut. The Packers offense may have scored three times through the air, but the drives that ended in scoring range were few and far between in Week 2. Carlson has value as a streamer in plus matchups, but his weekly scoring floor is low and makes him risky. There are likely better options on your waiver wire to pick up each week, but Carlson will be in consideration from time to time. Next week's matchup against the New Orleans Saints is one to avoid.
Green Bay Packers kicker Anders Carlson will go on the road to take on the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday. After a successful NFL debut last week, where he nailed a 52-yard field goal, the rookie will look to build on his success and could be busy against Atlanta. The Falcons were able to hold the Panthers to just 10 points in their season opener but will have a tougher time against a Packers offense that just put up 38 points against the Chicago Bears. If the Packers can get into scoring position as often as they did last week, Anders has a solid fantasy floor heading into Week 2 with the chance to finish inside the top 10 if he can nail a few field goals. There are better options likely on the waiver wire to pivot to, but the rookie kicker can be started in a pinch this weekend.
Green Bay Packers kicker Anders Carlson nailed a 52-yard field goal and converted all five of his extra point attempts during the team's 38-20 victory over the Chicago Bears Sunday. The Packers routed Chicago, especially in the second half, leading to just one field goal attempt for the rookie kicker in his NFL debut. Even still, Carlson was perfect in his debut and had a solid fantasy outing. It is still too early to get excited about the fantasy potential of the Packers kicker, but a few more top-tier performances from this offense, and we may have another solid streaming option to turn to in 2023. Carlson will be in consideration next week against the Atlanta Falcons.
