2024 Fantasy Outlook
Zuerlein's 12th NFL season in 2023 was perhaps his best effort since 2017, featuring a 92.1 percent conversion rate on 38 field-goal attempts (tied for third most). He went 5 of 6 from 50-plus yards and 13 of 14 in the 40-49 yard range, yet finished 15th among kickers in fantasy scoring thanks to an extraordinary lack of PATs (15 of 16). QB Aaron Rodgers should help balance that out for Zuerlein and the Jets in 2024, though the additional one-point attempts might come at the expense of some of his three-point tries. Zuerlein is 36 years old and has a middling 83.1 percent career conversion rate on field goals, but the strong showing in 2023 seemingly equates to job security entering 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Critical miss leads to Week 4 loss
Zuerlein made three of four field-goal attempts in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Zuerlein scored all of the Jets' points in this one, but his makes from 23, 35 and 40 yards were overshadowed by his missed 50-yard field-goal attempt with 47 seconds remaining, which ended the Jets' hopes of improving to 3-1. Instead, the Jets are 2-2 and Zuerlein's just 5-for-7 on field-goal attempts heading into a Week 5 trip to London to face the Vikings.

Zuerlein is one of the league's better-known kickers despite a mediocre track record, hitting a career 82.1 percent on FGAs while converting only 55 percent from 50-plus yards. He has a strong leg and typically ranks among the league leaders in touchback rate on kickoffs, but accuracy on long field goals has never been especially impressive. Even so, Zuerlein has enjoyed numerous stints of fantasy relevance with high-powered offenses in Los Angeles and Dallas. He might get that chance again in his second season with the Jets, as QB Aaron Rodgers has been called in to lead an offense that added a pair of star rookies last year (WR Garrett Wilson, RB Breece Hall). Granted, Rodgers is 39 and Zuerlein is 35, so things could go wrong.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Wins Week 5 special teams award
Zuerlein was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for his efforts in this past Sunday's 31-21 win over Denver, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Zuerlein made all five of his field-goal attempts in the road victory. He didn't need much assistance from the Denver altitude, as four of his five attempts came from within 30 yards. With running back Breece Hall finding his elite pre-injury form and quarterback Zach Wilson starting to cut down on the glaring errors, things are looking up for the Jets' offense, and by extension, Zuerlein.
