Michael Badgley Fantasy

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley made both of his extra points but missed one of his three field goal attempts in the 20-16 win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 18. Badgley impressed this season, so there's a chance he could be back for the Lions in 2023. If so, he'll be high on the fantasy radar, since Detroit will once again be expected to be a top offense in the NFL.

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley was the No. 2 overall kicker in fantasy points from Week 10 to 15 before a down performance in Week 16. However, he rebounded in Week 17, making all five of his extra point attempts and both of his field goal attempts. Ultimately, this Lions' offense has proven to be one of the best units in the NFL, so he's benefited greatly. Even though the Packers have played well on defense in recent weeks, offense usually wins out in the modern-day NFL. If the Seattle Seahawks beat the Los Angeles Rams before this game kicks off, Detroit will already be eliminated from playoff contention, so there's also a risk the motivation could be lacking for this one.

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley made both of his field goal attempts and all five of his extra points in the 41-10 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 17. Badgley has emerged as an elite fantasy kicker, ranking as the No. 2 kicker in total fantasy points since Week 10. In a high-powered offense, he could continue to be on the fantasy radar heading into the 2023 season.
