Will Reichard, Vikings vs. Chargers: Reichard was busy in Week 7 with 18 fantasy points against a tough Eagles defense. He has eight or more fantasy points in 4-of-6 games this season, so consistency is there.

Tyler Loop, Ravens vs. Bears: The Ravens are expected to get QB Lamar Jackson back this week, which is huge for the offense. In four games with Jackson under center, Loop had at least seven fantasy points in each contest, including 12 in back-to-back games to start 2025.

Evan McPherson, Bengals vs. Jets: The addition of Joe Flacco to the Bengals offense has been big for McPherson’s fantasy prospects. Last week, he posted 17 fantasy points vs. the Steelers. Now, McPherson gets a matchup vs. the Jets, who are allowing the most fantasy points to opposing kickers this season.

Michael Badgley, Colts vs. Titans: Badgley has 13 combined points over the past two games since taking over for Spencer Shrader, who had 11 fantasy points in Week 3 vs. Tennessee. The Colts should be in the red zone plenty against a bad Titans team.

Matt Prater, Bills vs. Panthers: Buffalo is coming off a bye and the offense should be ready to get back on track against Carolina. Prior to Week 6, Prater had posted at least seven fantasy points in every game this season.
