Matt Gay Fantasy

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay hit all three of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 31-21 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 29-year-old didn't see the first field-goal try with his new team in his Indianapolis debut, but he did his job when called upon Sunday. Gay has been an accurate kicker for his career, burying 86-of-94 FGs (91.5%) since 2020. But fantasy managers may be able to find a stronger choice on waiver wires, as the former Pro Bowler's offense may not be the most reliable unit in 2023. Gay will kick indoors during Week 2's date with the division-rival Houston Texans, but it projects as a low-scoring affair.

The Indianapolis Colts are signing free-agent kicker Matt Gay to a four-year, $22.5 million deal on Monday, which is the biggest deal ever for a kicker in free agency. It's also the most money over three years for a kicker. Gay has been one of the most accurate kickers in the NFL in recent history, as he's made 74 of his 80 field-goal tries with the Rams in the last three seasons. He was a Pro Bowler in 2021 and made 28 of his 30 field-goal attempts in 2022 while also missing just one of his 32 extra-point tries. The 28-year-old wasn't quite as good in fantasy last year because of all the injuries to the Rams' offense. Gay's 2023 fantasy appeal will depend on who the Colts roll with under center.

The Los Angeles Rams chose not to use the franchise or transition tag on impending free-agent kicker Matt Gay by the deadline on Tuesday. Gay has been one of the most accurate kickers in the league the last few years, as he's gone 60-for-64 in field-goal attempts the last two seasons. The 2021 Pro Bowler is expected to receive significant interest on the open market this offseason. Gay's only two misses out of 30 attempts for the Rams in 2022 came from 50-plus yards out, and he missed just one of his 32 extra points. The 28-year-old wasn't as productive from a fantasy standpoint with the Rams' offense stalling this year due to injuries, but he could be very attractive again in 2023, depending on where he ends up.
