Chris Boswell — 2026 Fantasy Outlook
The case for drafting him
Chris Boswell has been one of the more consistent kickers in the league over the past three seasons. From 2023 through 2025, he averaged 32.3 field goals and 34.7 extra points per season on 35.7 field goal attempts and 35.3 extra point attempts — and he missed an average of just 2.7 field goals per year across that span. His 2024 season stands out in particular: 41 field goals on 44 attempts alongside a perfect 35-for-35 on extra points. That kind of volume and accuracy is the foundation of a reliable kicker. Pittsburgh's offense has consistently put Boswell in position to score, and his track record reflects it.
What the model projects
The projection for Boswell in 2026 is 109.6 half-PPR fantasy points. He ranks K6 at his position and sits at #139 overall, placing him in Tier 9 on the board. His draft value is -20.3, meaning the projection lands below replacement level at the kicker position in a standard 12-team half-PPR format. He is a known quantity with a real production history, but the numbers place him outside the top tier of kickers by value.

The range of outcomes
Boswell's recent history illustrates the year-to-year variance that comes with the kicker position. In 2024 he attempted 44 field goals; in 2025 that number dropped to 32. Extra point attempts swung from 35 in 2024 to 43 in 2025. Volume is the primary driver of kicker scoring, and that volume is tied to an offense's performance and red-zone efficiency — both of which can shift meaningfully from season to season. A high-volume year for Pittsburgh's offense lifts his ceiling; a lower-volume year compresses it. His accuracy has been steady, so the variance lives almost entirely on the opportunity side.
How to draft him
Boswell is not being drafted consistently enough across platforms to carry a market ADP, so there is no public draft-slot data to reference. He ranks K6 and sits at #139 overall in Tier 9. His draft value of -20.3 reflects a projection below replacement level, which is the standard reality for most kickers outside the top few. In a 12-team snake draft, kickers are typically taken last. If you want Boswell specifically, his position on the board suggests he will be available deep in your draft — but with no ADP to anchor that expectation, monitor your league's draft board and take him when the kicker run begins.

Questions drafters ask
Very accurate. Over the 2023–2025 span, he averaged 32.3 field goals made on 35.7 attempts — just 2.7 misses per season on average. In 2024 alone he hit 41 of 44 field goal attempts and was perfect on all 35 extra point attempts.
He ranks K6 at his position and #139 overall, placing him in Tier 9 on the board. His projected 109.6 half-PPR points come with a draft value of -20.3, which puts him below replacement level at the kicker position.
Significantly. His field goal attempts ranged from 31 in 2023 to 44 in 2024 and back to 32 in 2025, and extra point attempts ranged from 28 to 43 across those same three seasons. His accuracy has been consistent, so volume — driven by the offense — is the main variable in his final point total.
There is no market ADP available for Boswell, so there is no public consensus draft slot to cite. He sits at #139 overall as K6 in Tier 9. In a 12-team snake draft, watch the kicker run on your board and pick him up when that wave starts if he is your preferred option at the position.
