Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Perfect in win vs. Broncos
Rotowire
Dicker went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on point-after tries during Thursday's 34-27 victory over Denver.
Dicker finished out the big TNF win over the Broncos perfect on all of his attempts, and he hasn't missed a field goal since Week 9 against the Browns. One of his field goals came on an unorthodox free kick with zero seconds remaining in the first half. The fourth-year kicker has now made 31 of 33 FGAs and 27 of 30 extra-point attempts across 15 games this season.

Dicker rode the positive momentum he built up in Week 10 to make multiple field goals without a missed kick for his second game straight Sunday.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Steady in win
Rotowire
Dicker converted both of his two field-goal tries and made all three of his extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-17 win versus the Titans.
Dicker's farthest kick Sunday came from 37 yards out, just a bit longer than an extra point, so he wasn't necessarily put to the test in Week 10. It was nonetheless a positive development for him, as he had missed kicks in each of his two games prior. He'll be kicking in a dome again in Week 11 versus the Bengals.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Rough outing Sunday
Rotowire
Dicker missed his only field-goal try and converted three of his four extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-10 win at Cleveland.
Dicker's missed field goal came from 44 yards out, but since the Chargers already had a 20-3 lead in the fourth quarter, it wasn't very meaningful. What's slightly more concerning is that Sunday's game was Dicker's second in a row with a missed extra point. He'll be looking to bounce back in Week 10 versus the Titans.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Dealing with illness
Rotowire
Dicker (illness) didn't practice Wednesday.
Dicker will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos. Don't be surprised if the Chargers to add a kicker to their practice squad just in case Dicker is unable to suit up in Week 6.

Rotowire

Dicker was the Chargers' only source of points through three quarters, hitting field goals from 53, 25 and 24 yards out, one in each quarter. The Texas product's PAT would come on a J.K. Dobbins touchdown to start the fourth quarter that gave the Chargers the lead for good.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Excellent in second season
Rotowire
Dicker converted 31 of his 33 field-goal attempts and all 35 of his extra-point attempts over 17 games for the Chargers during the regular season.
After years of poor kicking production, the Chargers appear to have finally struck gold in the form of Dicker, who has missed just three of his field-goal attempts dating back to his 2022 rookie season. He seemed to quell any concerns about long-distance kicks, as the 23-year-old made seven from 50-plus yards out after failing to make his lone attempt from that range in 2022. The introduction of head coach Jim Harbaugh could add value to Dicker's fantasy prospects next season, considering the aggressive fourth-down tendencies that Brandon Staley displayed during his tenure will likely be tossed to the wayside in favor of a more conventional approach.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Excellent despite loss
Rotowire
Dicker made all five of his field-goal attempts and also nailed his only extra-point try in the 24-22 loss to the Bills on Saturday.
Dicker put together an absolutely monster performance including a 53-yard field goal that looked like it had another eight yards to spare, but it would have been tough to predict this sort of outcome given Easton Stick led an offense that previously struggled to generate much in a blowout loss against the Raiders last week. It's clear the second-year kicker is one of the most accurate in the league, and at this point concerns about a lack of leg strength seem unfounded, but offensive consistency likely caps Dicker's fantasy upside most weeks.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Kicker to Sit
Rotowire
Dicker has scored six Fantasy points or less in four games in a row, and he hasn't attempted a field goal in consecutive outings against Denver or Las Vegas. The Raiders game in Week 15 was the first one without Justin Herbert (finger), and Dicker only had four PATs. Things will hopefully improve for Dicker and the Chargers offense in Week 16 against Buffalo, but the Bills are No. 5 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing kickers. I would avoid Dicker in all leagues in this matchup.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Small role in loss
Rotowire
Dicker made both his sole field goal and extra point in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Ravens.
Dicker converted his only field-goal attempt from 39 yards in the first quarter and tacked on an extra point in the fourth. The 23-year-old has made every attempted field goal since Week 3, and is 17 for 18 on the year, with his only miss being a 53-yard attempt. The second-year kicker has proven to be accurate throughout the year and will continue to be a solid option for managers if the Chargers hope to overcome their recent drought, especially against a struggling Patriots team in Week 13.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: No good on long field goal
Rotowire
Dicker missed his lone field-goal attempt from 53 yards out, but he did connect on all four of his extra-point attempts in the 28-24 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Dicker isn't known for his strong leg, so the missed field goal isn't entirely surprising. The second-year kicker is just 1-of-3 on attempts from 50-plus yards in his career, including the playoffs; however, he's missed just one other field goal out of his 26 tries to date. Dicker figures to be in a good spot to add to that total in a matchup against the vulnerable Raiders defense this week.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Kicker to Start
Rotowire
When looking for your Fantasy kicker you want a good offense and a good stadium/weather situation. It also helps when you get a high-scoring game, and that's what we have here with Dicker. This should be one of the better point totals of the week with an expected over-under of 51, and Dicker should get plenty of scoring chances in this matchup. He already played Miami last year and made 3-of-3 field goals and two PATs at home in Week 14, and it would be great if he replicated that stat line again in the rematch.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Fellow kicker traded
Rotowire
The Chargers have traded Dustin Hopkins to the Browns, leaving Dicker as the team's lone kicking option, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The two had been competing for the team's Week 1 kicking assignment, but with Hopkins on the move, Dicker is slated to handle the job ahead of the coming season. In that context, the 23-year-old profiles as a viable fantasy option while working with the Chargers' Justin Herbert-helmed offense.

Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Kicking battle back on
Rotowire
Dicker is expected to compete against Dustin Hopkins for the kicking role with the Chargers, Eric Smith of the team's official website reports.
Hopkins had been sidelined with an undisclosed injury for the majority of camp up until now, which has led to Dicker taking on all the kicking responsibilities. However, it now looks like this is going to be a legitimate competition. Dicker made all six of his field-goal attempts in the competition at practice today and is now 58-of-64 (90.6 percent) at camp in kicks that were being counted. Hopkins, on the other hand, is 10-of-15 on his attempts.
