Top Kickers to Consider for Fantasy Football Drafts in 2026

As fantasy football leagues continue to include kickers, three players stand out for the upcoming 2026 season. Brandon Aubrey of the Dallas Cowboys, known for his powerful leg, had an impressive season last year, converting 36 of 42 field goals and 47 of 48 extra-point attempts. Despite a challenging schedule ahead, his role in a high-scoring offense may lead to more scoring opportunities.

Ka’imi Fairbairn of the Houston Texans led the league with 44 field goals last season and maintained a perfect record on attempts under 50 yards. With the Texans' strong defense and a balanced offense, Fairbairn is expected to continue his success in the upcoming season.

Evan McPherson of the Cincinnati Bengals made 25 of 28 field goals last season and is anticipated to have more chances this year, especially if quarterback Joe Burrow remains healthy. With the Bengals facing one of the easiest schedules, McPherson could prove to be a valuable pick, currently ranked as K11.
