Fantasy Football Week 13 Waiver Wire: Kickers to consider streaming
We're already into Week 13 and we've got the three-game Thanksgiving Day slate to consider on Thursday. We don't have any teams on bye this week but you may need to make quicker lineup decisions for fantasy football given four games will be played prior to Sunday. Below are some appealing kicker streamers based on Justin Boone's weekly waiver wire column.
| Player | Next Up | Rostered |
| Wil Lutz | at WAS | 40% |
| Brandon McManus | at DET | 13% |
| Evan McPherson | at BAL | 38% |
| Matt Prater | at PIT | 43% |
| Michael Badgley | vs. HOU | 11% |
Wil Lutz at Commanders: Lutz doesn't have a massive fantasy ceiling - though he did post a season-high 18 fantasy points against the Chiefs prior to the team's Week 12 bye. This is a good matchup for kickers with Washington allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to the position this season.
Brandon McManus at Lions: The Packers take on the Lions on Thanksgiving at 1 p.m. ET at Ford Field. It's always easier kicking inside and this game is expected to be high scoring with a total near 50 points.
Evan McPherson at Ravens: The Bengals are expected to get QB Joe Burrow back in the lineup, so there could be a lot of points in this one. That could mean McPherson is busy and he's been very consistent lately with at least eight fantasy points in five straight games.
Matt Prater at Steelers: Pittsburgh is allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to kickers this season. This game should be high scoring and Prater offers a pretty solid floor in this matchup.
Michael Badgley vs Texans: Houston sports one of the top defenses in the NFL and we all know the Colts offense can move the ball. That sounds like a pretty good recipe for FG attempts. Badgley also has at least seven fantasy points in four straight games.
