Jake Elliott Nails Four Field Goals In Season Opener

Jake Elliott Nails Four Field Goals In Season Opener

one year ago

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made four field goals and missed his lone extra point attempt during the team's 25-20 victory over the New England Patriots in the season opener. The 28-year-old completed kicks from 32, 48, 51, and 56 yards out, giving fantasy managers a massive performance. The extra point that was missed was early in the contest when the rain was coming down hard and heavily affecting field conditions. Elliott will have weeks where he attempts little to no field goals due to the nature of Philadelphia's high-powered offense. However, the veteran kicker has a high fantasy ceiling in matchups with stiff defenses like this one. The Vikings are up next for Philadelphia in their home opener on Thursday. Elliott should be considered a high-end streaming option in Week 2.
