Sit: Jake Elliott, K (Philadelphia Eagles)

This one is tough for us to state given kicker Jake Elliott hasn't done anything but provide Fantasy managers with a big outing weekly. The deck may be stacked against him to provide satisfactory statistics versus the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football.

There are clear reasons for that being the case. The Chiefs are an all-or-nothing type of defense unit. It's currently tied for the third-most sacks in the league (31). That has helped Steve Spagnuolo's guys end opposing drives very quickly. There's another side to that coin though. This unit also allows the 10th-highest red zone touchdown percentage during home games (62.5%).

It leaves little room for kickers to make an impact on the game, unless, of course, we're talking about them knocking a few extra points through the uprights. Now, keep this in mind. Dropping Elliott from your Fantasy roster isn't the way to go here. He remains the second-highest-scoring player at his position.

Picking someone up to temporarily fill in his starting spot for Week 11 is the smarter move because no one should be convinced into thinking that Jake won't provide some quality and a few extra points for your team down the stretch.
