2026 Fantasy Outlook
Sanders signed with the Giants this offseason, hoping to rebound from a hip injury that wiped out his entire 2025 campaign. He spent his first seven NFL seasons in Miami, where he converted 84.6 percent of his field-goal attempts and 96.6 percent of his PATs. He's mixed in a few big seasons for fantasy, namely 2020 and 2024, but Sanders' overall track record safely lumps him into the league's middle class of kickers -- good enough to have job security, but not good enough for anyone to really notice him outside of his own team's fanbase. While there's some chance John Harbaugh, Jaxson Dart and Co. turn the Giants into a playoff-caliber team that provides ample kicking volume, Sanders will first need to prove himself this summer in a job battle against Ben Sauls and Dominic Zvada. The winner of their camp competition won't be a popular draft pick but could eventually have streaming utility. Read Past Outlooks
Replacing Koo in New York
The Jets are signing Sanders and waiving Younghoe Koo, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Sanders took just one day to find a new team after the Giants released him on Tuesday. He held down the placekicking job in Miami from 2018 to 2024, but after missing all of last season with a hip injury, Sanders may have to compete with Cade York (groin) for the Jets' placekicker job. York has been missing OTA practices due to a groin injury, so the Jets might even consider bringing in another kicker at some point.

A disappointing 2024 for the Dolphins meant more field-goal attempts and fewer PATs for Sanders, who finished fifth among kickers in fantasy scoring, up from 10th in 2023 and 17th in 2022. The Dolphins hope to avoid a repeat and recapture their 2022-23 form on offense, in which case Sanders would trade back some of those three-pointers for one-pointers. Sanders went 12-of-14 from 50-plus yards last season, but his track record is otherwise middle of the road -- good enough to maintain job security but not to be discussed among the game's best kickers. He's entering his eighth season in the role for Miami, having played at least 16 games in each of his previous seven campaigns.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Job security on shaky ground?
Sanders, who went 23-for-30 on field-goal attempts in 2019, could get some competition for the starting placekicker job via the upcoming draft, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
It probably seems like just yesterday to Sanders that his own name was called during the third day of the 2018 draft, when Miami invested a seventh-round pick on him. However, it's rare for any non-elite kicker not to be confronted with competition annually, so Jackson's report that the Dolphins have had multiple virtual interviews with several potential draftees at the position in recent weeks isn't exactly surprising. Jackson makes specific mention of Utah State's Dominic Eberle (21-for-24 on FG attempts in 2019) and the Georgia's Rodrigo Blankenship, the latter who boasted a 6-for-9 tally on attempts of 50 or more yards during his four seasons for the Bulldogs.
