Ka'imi Fairbairn Fantasy

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn was perfect on field goals in Week 1, and he'll look to carry that perfection into a Week 2 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. The kicker nailed three attempts from 38 yards, 36 yards, and 35 yards last week in Baltimore. It was an easy week for Fairbairn, who kicked just three short-field goals for Houston. After only missing two tries last year, the Texans' kicker is already off to a great start in 2023. But, with a rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud under center, the team could struggle offensively to get into Fairbairn's range. For now, he should only be started in deep leagues in Week 2.

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn finished the season with an impressive 93.5% conversion rate on field goals, going 29-for-31, which was a career-high for him. He also made all 24 of his extra-point attempts. The 28-year-old attempted the second-most field goals of his career because the offense struggled to score touchdowns. In Week 18, he converted all three extra points and his lone field-goal try. He's signed through the 2023-2024 season, meaning he'll be back for at least one more year. However, this offense projects to be low-scoring again, which will reduce his fantasy football value.

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn is in the midst of the most accurate season of his career, as he's made 90% of his field goals and 100% of his extra points this year. But he ranks just 15th in fantasy scoring at the kicker position this season because of a lack of opportunities due to Houston's offensive struggles. The team made a change at QB ahead of Sunday's game against Miami, but that shouldn't have much of a change on how many chances Fairbairn gets to kick the ball.
