Getty Justin Tucker of the Baltimore Ravens
Welcome to our fantasy football kicker rankings for Week 9 of the 2019 NFL regular season. This week’s byes strips us of the services of Greg Zuerlein. We do however get back Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker, who returns from a Week 8 bye this Sunday. Unfortunately, Tucker could be in line for a rough evening against the stellar New England Patriots defense/ST.

Kicker Outlook Week 9
With Greg Z unavailable for Week 9, Jason Myers (K1) stakes claim for the top spot in our Week 9 kicker rankings. Myers has averaged an impressive 11 fantasy points over the previous two weeks. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have surrendered 13.5 fantasy points to the position over the same time span. In fact, the Bucs have allowed the most fantasy points in football to kickers this season, and have allowed an average of 13.6 points in five of their seven games in 2019.
Fantasy owners are likely excited to get back Justin Tucker (K13) in their lineups this week. They will, however, likely be less ecstatic once they realize who Tucker is set to face off with. The New England Patriots have surrendered an absurdly low average of just 2.62 fantasy points to opposing kickers this season. They’ve allowed only one kicker to exceed five fantasy points thus far this year, and have handed out two goose eggs along the way.
