Many fantasy owners will have a tough call this week. Carry two kickers, or send the likes of Hauschka and Santos back to the waiver wire and hope you can pick them up again in Week 10? Either way, you’ll probably see more kicker activity on the wire (or at least in free agency) as owners seek capable bye-week replacements. It’s always difficult to try to play matchups and find sleepers when it comes to kickers, but we factored in everything when putting together our fantasy kicker rankings for Week 9. Use these as a starting point for start/sit lineup decisions this week.
