Anders Carlson Better Left Out Of Lineups

Anders Carlson Better Left Out Of Lineups

one year ago

Green Bay Packers kicker Anders Carlson will travel to Chicago to take on the Bears this Sunday. The rookie will make his NFL debut in a decent matchup against a less-than-stellar Bears defense. Chicago allowed the most points in the entire league in 2022, and while the defense is improved, they are not projected to be top-tier by any stretch. With that said, it is better to play it safe and leave the sixth-round NFL draft pick on the waiver wire to open the fantasy season. Carlson could become a viable streaming option down the road, but we need to see what he can do in the pros when the pressure is on before starting him. On top of that, the Packers are missing their top pass catcher, Christian Watson (hamstring), and could be without their No. 2 target, Romeo Doubs (hamstring). Leaving Carlson on waives is the safe bet this week.
