2024 Fantasy Outlook
Boswell is entering his 10th season as Pittsburgh's kicker, having produced six years with a FG percentage above 90 and two years south of 72 percent. Overall, he's sixth in career FG percentage (87.2), including 30 of 37 from 50-plus yards (81.1 percent) despite playing his home games in one of the less-friendly stadiums for kicking. Twenty-one of his 30 career makes from 50-plus yards came the past three seasons, but Boswell's fantasy value has nonetheless been marginal thanks to a lack of PAT volume (three straight years with fewer than 30 tries). The strong track record at least makes him a consideration for favorable matchups, with upside to be an every-week starter if the Pittsburgh offense breaks out of its long-term slump under OC Arthur Smith and QB Russell Wilson.

Ready to face Baltimore
Boswell (illness) didn't practice Thursday but doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's road wild-card matchup against Baltimore, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Boswell has missed back-to-back practices due to an illness, but that won't impact his availability for Saturday's AFC wild-card round clash. The veteran is coming off an impressive regular season, in which he managed a 93 percent conversion rate while making a career-high 41 field goals (on 44 attempts).

Boswell made only 71.4 percent of his field-goal attempts last year, ending a three-year streak of at least 90 percent. The catch? Nineteen of his 28 attempts came from 40 yards or longer, and while he made only half in the 40-49 range, he went 7-for-9 from 50-plus. That, after going 8-for-9 from 50-plus the year before. And if 28 tries doesn't sound like many, consider that Boswell missed five games and was attached to a lousy offense. The Steelers trust him, and while the struggles on offense may continue, a talented Pittsburgh defense can help put Boswell in range for three-pointers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
First with three six-FG games
Boswell became the first kicker in NFL history to convert six field goals in three different games in his career when he made all six field-goal attempts in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Ravens.
ANALYSIS
Two of those three games have come this season, as Boswell also joined John Carney in 1993 as the only kickers with two games of six-plus made field goals in one season. The 33-year-old Steelers kicker is enjoying an excellent campaign, having converted 29 of 30 field-goal attempts this season.
