If youāre looking for a kicker to start in Week 2 fantasy football, Chandler Catanzaro of the New York Jets is a viable option.
In case fantasy football owners out there in the world didnāt know, the overall offense, defense, well, pretty much the majority of the New York Jets are all a huge work in progress. The Jets are rebuilding and with that comes a lot of growing pains, frustration, and needing time to find an identity. When it comes to the offense of the Jets, it leaves much to the imagination since they canāt even convert third downs, let alone, score touchdowns. Thatās why in Week 2 against the Oakland Raiders, kicker Chandler Catanzaro is worth starting if youāre looking for one.
In the grand scheme of things, the Jets wonāt score touchdowns for a while, let alone this week against the tough defense of the Raiders. Luckily for fantasy football owners, this bodes well for Catanzaro.
Last week, he hit a pair of field goals, which brought in respectable points depending on how the setup for your league is. This week, itās hard to believe the Jets could actually score a touchdown or two against the Raiders but either way, expect to see a lot of action coming to Catanzaro this week.

Hopefully, the Jets learned from their mistakes in Week 1 when they lost to the Buffalo Bills and failed to do what made sense.
They didnāt commit to the run and became too one-dimensional. If theyāre smart, they will do a better job at establishing the ground game and even if they donāt score touchdowns, can at least get into position to add points on the scoreboard via field goals.
Thatās where Catanzaro comes in and well, should be able to bring in the same if not, even more, fantasy points in Week 2. Trust me when I say that the Jets arenāt going to win this game against the Raiders but will probably score many field goals in their efforts.
Overall, if your main kicker is facing a tough matchup or youāre feeling risky in Week 2, Catanzaro is worth starting. If itās anything the Jets have been historically known for, itās always having a strong kicking game when it comes to field goals.
