Kelley L Cox-US PRESSWIRE - Presswire
Fantasy Impact: Kaeding has been a perfect 7-for-7 on field goals before the injury, so he might be worth stashing on your bench until he comes back. On the other hand, it's a kicker, the one fantasy position you shouldn't be stressing about. Novak made three FGs against the Chiefs last week and is more than capable of filling in for Kaeding. Go ahead and pick him off the wire if you haven't done so already.
