Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott went 2-for-4 on field-goal attempts Thursday and missed one of his three extra-point attempts during the team's 26-18 win over the Washington Commanders. Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni finally elected to try and take the points this week instead of going for it constantly on fourth down, but Elliott continued to struggle like he has all year and missed multiple kicks. Perhaps there is a reason Sirianni has been so aggressive on fourth down in plus territory, but it is more likely that one of last season's most accurate kickers just had an off night. Regardless, he is far too risky to trust for fantasy moving forward and should be left on waivers until we see more consistent production.
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will face off against the Washington Commanders on Thursday night football in Week 11. The 29-year-old had his second-best fantasy performance of the season last week against the Dallas Cowboys, nailing two short field goals and converting all four of his extra-point attempts. The Commanders' defense is much better than the Cowboys at the moment, so expecting another easy outing for the veteran is a bit of a stretch. However, there is a real chance this game becomes a shootout with two high-powered offenses vying for the No. 1 spot in the NFC East, leading to a solid night for Elliott. Consider the Eagles kicker a boom-or-bust streamer like we have for the majority of this season in Week 11.
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will face off against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10. The 29-year-old had a rough outing last week, missing one of two field goal attempts and only needing to convert one extra point with head coach Nick Sirianni constantly going for two. The aggressive nature of the Eagles' offense is a double-edged sword for Elliott, making him incredibly inconsistent for fantasy managers. Dallas is struggling on defense at the moment and could be allowing even more points to Philadelphia now that they are at full strength. The veteran kicker is a streamer because of the matchup, but he is boom or bust.
Jake Elliott Goes 1-For-2 In Field-Goal Tries Sunday
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made one of two field goal attempts and converted his lone extra point attempt during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. After his best week of the season, the 29-year-old came back to earth in Week 9 and missed a long field goal attempt late in the game that would have given the Eagles an eight-point lead rather than a five-point one. It went on not to matter in the end, but the up-and-down season for Elliott continues. At this point, fantasy managers need to consider him a boom-or-bust streaming option who only needs to be started in plus matchups. That applies next week when the Eagles take on a reeling Cowboys team.
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will face off against the 2-6 Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. The 29-year-old hitting all three of his field goals with two being from 40-plus yards away and connecting on all four of his extra-point attempts. The Philadelphia offense has started to click over the past three weeks and it has put the veteran kicker back on the streaming radar. Elliott can be seen as a boom or bust option in Week 9, as the Eagles should be in scoring position often, but if they find the end zone at a high rate we may not see many field goal opportunities.
Jake Elliott Nails Three Field Goals In Blowout Win
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made three field goals from 39, 47, and 49 yards away and converted four extra point attempts during the team's 37-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. This was by far the 29-year-olds best fantasy performance of the season and his only one so far with at least three field goals converted. The Eagles offense has started to gel nicely since the bye and with their upcoming schedule, Elliott is a solid addition for those struggling to get production from their current kicker. He will be highly recommended next week as the Eagles take on a terrible Jacksonville defense.
Jake Elliott On The Streaming Radar Against Bengals
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will go on the road to take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8. The 24-year-old did not need to attempt a field goal last week in the Eagles' blowout win over the New York Giants, making for a poor fantasy performance propelled by four extra-point conversions. It has been a rough fantasy season for a man who had the best fantasy season of his career just last year, but this is a potentially high-scoring matchup where he could be needed, leaving him right on the streaming radar in Week 8. It is risky, but the matchup warrants the attention of fantasy managers who are struggling to find a kicker this week.
Jake Elliott A Boom or Bust Streaming Option In Week 7
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will go on the road to take on the division-rival New York Giants in Week 7. The veteran has started the season slow, missing both his tries from more than 50 yards and converting just six field goals all year. The Eagles' aggressive offense in plus territory has stifled Elliott's fantasy managers at every turn so far this season, but because the offense can find its way into scoring territory often, he remains on the streaming radar in plus matchups. With the Giants ranking middle of the pack against fantasy kickers this season, Elliott should be considered a boom or bust streamer in Week 7.
Jake Elliott Hits Two Of Three Field Goals In Win Over Browns
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott converted two of his three field goal attempts and nailed both extra-point tries during the team's 20-16 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 6. After three straight down weeks for the 29-year-old, he was able to give fantasy managers a solid performance even with a blocked field goal attempt that turned into a touchdown. The Eagles offense is still going for it at a high rate on fourth down, leading to frustrating results for fantasy managers. With that said, the Eagles' next three matchups are against the New York Giants, Cincinnati Bengals, and Jacksonville Jaguars. None of those defenses are scary by any means, and the Eagles offense should be able to get into scoring range often. Elliott will be on the streaming radar again next week.
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will face the Cleveland Browns in Week 6. The 29-year-old has had a slow start to the season after putting up career numbers last season. Through four games he has just four field goals converted and has done little for fantasy managers. With that said, this week's matchup against a struggling Cleveland Browns defense sets the veteran up for a bounce-back performance. The Browns are tied for the ninth-most fantasy points allowed per game to opposing kickers and the Eagles offense has regained their top two pass catchers in A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion). While these additions may take some field goal opportunities off the board if they find the end zone, the Eagles should be in scoring range often. Consider Elliott a back-end K1 option in Week 6.
