Nick Rose Fantasy Stats

The Houston Texans cut place kicker Nick Rose on Friday, according to a source. That means that Ka'imi Fairbairn will be the team's kicker heading into the 2018 season. Fairbairn made 20 of his 25 field goal attempts in his rookie season for the Texans, also going 3-for-4 from 50-plus yards. While Houston's offense is on the rise, Fairbairn can be left to the waiver wire in most leagues.

The Houston Texans are signing free-agent place kicker Nick Rose to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to a source. Rose made 11 of his 14 field goal attempts with the Redskins and Chargers last year, including one of two from 50-plus yards. He'll compete with Ka'imi Fairbairn for kicking duties. Despite Houston's offense being on the upswing under second-year quarterback Deshaun Watson, neither Rose nor Fairbairn should be fantasy options to begin the year.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are working out free-agent place kicker Nick Rose on Friday as potential competition for Chandler Catanzaro, who missed an extra-point attempt and a long field goal in the preseason game on Thursday. Catanzaro made up for it by making the game-winning kick. The Bucs obviously aren't comfortable with Catanzaro just yet. Rose made 11 of his 14 attempts last year between the Chargers and Redskins, including going one of two from 50-plus. Whoever wins this job heading into the season can be left to the waiver wire.

The Los Angeles Chargers waived running back Kenneth Farrow and place kicker Nick Rose on Friday. Farrow was on Injured Reserve all of last season. Rose's release means Caleb Sturgis and Roberto Aguayo will compete for the kicking job this summer.

The Los Angeles Chargers claimed place kicker Nick Rose off waivers from the Redskins on Monday and waived Travis Coons in a corresponding move. The Bolts are going through kickers like dirty socks in 2017. Rose was 10-for-11 on field goal attempts in his eight games with Washington this year, but he doesn't really represent much of an upgrade over Coons. Rose also missed two of his 20 extra point attempts for the 'Skins.
