Lions hand Vikings first loss, Russell Wilson cooks in Steelers debut
Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the top storylines from Week 7 in the NFL.
Sports Seriously
Here’s a fun fact: Last week’s top 24 kickers in terms of fantasy points scored were a combined 48-of-50 on their field goal attempts. The six lowest-scoring kickers were a combined 0-for-5. (And one of them is ranked third this week.)
Probably the biggest kicking news for Week 8 is that the consensus No. 1 fantasy kicker — Brandon Aubrey of Dallas — is back in action after spending last week on bye. Aubrey hasn’t missed a field goal all season and is currently second in fantasy points per game behind the Washington Commanders’ Austin Seibert.
