Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Justin Boone's Top Kickers To Stream For Week 9

Card image cap

We're into Week 9 of the NFL season and that means the midway point for fantasy football. By now, you likely have a kicker established, but you may also be in the streaming department on a weekly basis. We have the Steelers and Titans on bye in Week 9, which means you don't have the services of Chris Boswell. If that's the case, or if you just need someone to grab, Justin Boone offers his top kickers to stream off the waiver wire.

Santos vs. Bucs: We're still waiting on the results of MNF for Santos and the Bears. But Santos enters that game with double-digit fantasy points in four of seven games this season. The Bucs are also allowing the third-most fantasy points to kickers, thanks in large part to a strong defense that’s keeping opponents out of the end zone.

Pineiro vs. Raiders: It's been a rough go of it for Pineiro in terms of fantasy production. He only has one game in the double digits in 2026, Week 1's 11 points against the Rams. But the Niners are coming off a bye and the Raiders defense is allowing plenty of trips to the red zone.

Bass at Vikings: It's always scary going up against a top defense, but the Bills offense has looked pretty matchup-proof this season. Buffalo could have more drives stalled, so that means more kicking opportunities for Bass, who has at least 12 fantasy points in three straight games.
