2024 Fantasy Outlook
Slye is known for his strong leg but hasn't been great on long kicks in the NFL, going 20 of 32 from 50-plus yards and making just 82.3 percent of his field-goal attempts overall through five seasons. After spending the past two years in Washington, he signed with Jacksonville in March to compete with Riley Patterson, only to be released less than two months later when the Jags drafted Cam Little. While he isn't a top kicker by any means, Slye has enough of a track record that he should find another chance to compete for a job before training camp. Read Past Outlooks
Gets opportunity with New England
Slye has agreed to a deal with the Patriots, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After being released by the Jaguars earlier this week, it didn't take long for the 28-year-old to catch on with another team. With the Commanders last year, he made 19 of his 24 field-goal tries and 32 of his 35 extra-point attempts across 17 regular-season games. Now that he's with the Patriots, Slye will have an opportunity to compete with 2023 fourth-rounder Chad Ryland, who is coming off an inconsistent rookie campaign for New England.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely starter for Commanders
Slye appears to have won the kicking job in Washington after Michael Badgley was released Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Slye has been the kicker in Washington to close each of the last two seasons, though he was inconsistent in 2022. He particularly struggled from more than 40 yards away, converting only 12 of his 16 attempts in that range. As a result, the team brought in Badgley as competition, though Slye appears to have retained his roster spot for now.

2020
After splitting 2021 between three teams, Slye was Washington's kicker for all 17 games last season and converted 83.3 percent of FGAs and 85.7 percent of PATs. It was a decent showing overall, including 4-for-6 from 50-plus yards, but he missed three kicks in the season finale and finished with the third fewest points per game among placekickers with more than four appearances. Slye has a strong leg, so he can at least emerge as a streaming option if second-year QB Sam Howell elevates the Washington offense to respectability.
