2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Commanders signed McManus in March but then released him in June after a civil suit accused him of sexual assault. He's been in the NFL for 10 seasons, kicking for Jacksonville in 2023 and Denver before that. Read Past Outlooks
Misfires for first time
McManus made two of three field-goal attempts in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Sunday's rainy conditions at Lambeau Field certainly were not ideal for kicking, but nonetheless, McManus misfired from 46 yards out in the second quarter -- his first miss in three games with the Packers. Green Bay will be on bye in Week 10, so those who have added him to their fantasy rosters will need to look for another option. There is reason to replace him altogether, but it should be noted that since McManus made his season debut in Week 7, only five more kickers -- pending the results of the Monday night game -- have attempted more field goals.

McManus was Denver's kicker the past nine years and missed only two games, but he's never converted more than 30 field goals or 41 PATs in a season. And while his middling 81.4 percent career conversion rate on FGs might partially be a product of getting a lot of attempts from long distance, it's also true that he's had the altitude in Colorado helping him on many of those kicks. Now we'll see how he fares near sea level, as the Jaguars pounced after the Broncos released McManus in May to cut costs. The veteran kicker should stay busy if Jacksonville's offense continues to progress in Year 2 of the Trevor Lawrence - Doug Pederson marriage.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Catches on with Jags
McManus agreed to a deal with the Jaguars on Thursday and should have the inside track to the starting placekicker job in Jacksonville, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran was let go by the Broncos on Tuesday, but he quickly found a new home with an AFC rival. The Jaguars traded last season's placekicker, Riley Patterson, to the Lions on Thursday as well, clearing a path for McManus to lock in the starting job this summer. However, there will likely be competition in some form, considering McManus made under 80.0 percent of his field-goal tries for the first time since 2017 in his final Broncos season.
