Chris Boswell Out For Week 16; Matthew Wright Will Kick
4 years agoPittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell (groin) was downgraded to out and will not kick against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Boswell had been dealing with a groin injury during the week and had been listed as questionable but he will not take the field in Week 16. This will be Boswell's second missed game this month as he did not kick against the Washington Football Team a few weeks back. Pittsburgh will elevate Matthew Wright from the practice squad to take Boswell's place as the team's kicker. Wright hit his lone field goal attempt and both of his extra points against Washington earlier in the month. Based on Indy's strong defense and Pittsburgh's recent struggles on offense, Wright should not be under consideration as a fantasy option for championship games.
