Harrison Butker Fantasy Football Outlook (2026)
By Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros), Fri, Jun 5th 2026, 10:17am EDT
Harrison Butker has become a less dependable fantasy kicker in recent years. It's not because Butker has been substantially less accurate. It's because the Kansas City offense has been scoring fewer touchdowns in recent years, giving Butker fewer freebie extra points. In Butker's first five seasons, from 2017 to 2021, he averaged 3.0 extra points per game. In 2022 and 2023, Butker averaged 2.5 extra points per game. In 2024 and 2025, Butker averaged 2.0 extra points a game. Butker's yearly finished in fantasy points per game among kickers: second, sixth, second, 13th, ninth, 20th, 10th, 26th, 15th. The Chiefs offense might not be among the NFL's most explosive in 2026 with Patrick Mahomes coming off a major knee injury. Consider Butker a second-tier kicker option.
