Matt Prater Fantasy

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater can be viewed as a reliable streaming option heading into Week 12. With the re-emergence of quarterback Kyler Murray leading the Arizona passing game, Prater has become a viable fantasy kicker once again. Through 11 games on the year, Prater has missed just three kicks on 33 total attempts, despite ranking 26th among kickers. In Week 12, Arizona will face off against the L.A. Rams, a team that has conceded the fifth-most points per game to the position. With L.A. boasting a top-10 pass defense, there is a chance Arizona could struggle a bit moving the ball down the field, opening the door for Prater to have a solid day. Fantasy managers in need of help could do a lot worse than Prater in Week 12.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater should be considered a reliable starting option in Week 11. With quarterback Kyler Murray now directing the Arizona offense, Prater should see more scoring opportunities than in the past. In Week 10, he connected on all four of his field goal attempts and also made his only point-after try. He continues to be one of the most reliable kickers in the league, hitting over 90% of his field goals and extra points. Currently, he ranks 26th (6.4 points per game) among NFL placekickers and should see multiple opportunities with what could be a high-scoring affair. Managers can start him with confidence in Week 11.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater shouldn't be considered fantasy-relevant heading into the team's Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Even though Prater himself has handled the kicking duties fairly well, the offense hasn't provided him enough opportunities over the last three weeks for it to matter. While quarterback Kyler Murray's (knee) return could change the offense for the better and turn Prater's fortunes around, until it happens Prater shouldn't be considered a reliable fantasy option. Managers in need of a kicker should look elsewhere in Week 10.
