New York Jets kicker Anders Carlson has been waived by the organization on Monday. This doesn't come as a huge surprise given Greg Zuerlein (knee) was activated from the injured reserve over the weekend. Carlson was decent during his five games with the Jets. He connected on 8-of-10 field goals and missed two extra point attempts during his time in New York. The 26-year-old has decent potential, so we'll see if another team decides to scoop him up. Otherwise, Carlson will remain with Jets on their practice squad if he clears waivers.
New York Jets kicker Anders Carlson made one of his two field goals and missed his lone extra-point try in a 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16. Carlson struggled with his accuracy in the close loss to LA, missing on a 49-yard attempt and also misfiring after the Jets' lone touchdown of the contest. Carlson has now hit 13 of his 15 field goals while appearing in games for the Jets and the San Francisco 49ers this season. He will take on the Buffalo Bills on the road in Week 17.
New York Jets kicker Anders Carlson made one of his two field-goal attempts and added three extra points in a Week 15 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Carlson will look to keep it going at home against the Los Angeles Rams. The Ram have been generous to kickers this season, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to the position. That being said, the Jets' kickers have not been a fantasy goldmine this season. Treat Carlson as a low-end option heading into Week 16 against the Rams despite the plus matchup.
