Dustin Hopkins
K - FA
Week 15 Outlook
Availability
The Browns released K Dustin Hopkins.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins will likely seek another opportunity.
Dustin Hopkins made his only field goal attempt of the game, a 36-yard kick. Hopkins did not attempt any extra points, as the Browns only managed to score a field goal during the game. His field goal was one of the few successful moments for the Browns’ offense, which struggled to generate scoring opportunities.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins' performance in this game highlights his role as a dependable kicker when opportunities arise. Despite the Browns' struggles, he delivered on his field goal attempt. However, with limited opportunities in low-scoring games, his fantasy value remains capped.
Dustin Hopkins is inactive for Week 15 for the Cleveland Browns against the Kansas City Chiefs according to Ari Meirov.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins has struggled to make kicks on a consistent basis for the Browns, missing nine field goal attempts and two extra point attempts to this point in the season. Riley Patterson will handle the kicking duties for head coach Kevin Stefanski against the Chiefs Sunday.
Dustin Hopkins converted both of his extra point attempts while missing both of his field goal attempts in the Browns' 27-14 loss to the Steelers in Week 14.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins has struggled of late, missing field goal attempts in four of his last five games. The kicker is best left out of lineups for more reliable options ahead of a Week 14 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Dustin Hopkins converted 3-of-3 extra point attempts and 1-of-2 field goal attempts in Monday's 41-32 loss to the Denver Broncos.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins missed one of his two field goal attempts on Monday night, which left three points on the field for the Browns in their loss to the Broncos. Fantasy managers likely aren't pleased with his performance, and he remains one of the weaker options at the kicker position for the remainder of the season.
