Dad Adds Third Kicker To His Fantasy Football Team

November 29, 2017

Local dad Aaron Franks shocked the members of his fantasy football league by dropping his backup quarterback in order to pick up a third kicker, despite already having Matt Prater and Kai Forbath on his roster.

Franks, who currently has a 3-9 record, has decided to pick up Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo because, “He’s projected to get 9 points according to ESPN, and I really need the points.”

This is Franks’ second year playing fantasy football, and his three wins this season is a marked improvement over his 1-12 record last year. He claims that kickers are the “key to his success.”

As he explained to reporters, “You see, last year, everyone gave me a hard time for drafting a kicker in the second round, and I learned my lesson. You can get all the good kickers you’d ever want just off the waiver wire. That’s where I got two of my kickers so far! I don’t understand why no one else gives themselves a backup kicker, just in case.”

Franks is currently projected to lose next week’s game 101-73, but claims, “If the right kicker goes off, I’ve got a shot at this thing!”
