We’re entering Week 5 of the 2026 NFL regular season and fantasy football has been a wild ride so far. As always, if you’re streaming the kicker position, there’s no better place to turn than Justin Boone’s comprehensive waiver wire column. From there, we pulled the top kickers to stream for Week 5.

Spencer Shrader on the Steelers: Shrader shouldn’t be on the waiver wire in this prolific league. He has posted at least 14 fantasy points in three straight weeks. The Colts’ passing game was weak enough to force Shrader into many kicking opportunities.

Harrison Mevis vs. Bills: The early total in this MNF contest is 53.5 points, meaning we should see the Rams in the red zone a lot. Mevis has missed a few kicks this season but should have a relatively safe floor in such a great game environment.
Tyler Bass and Rams: Same deal as above section for Mevis. The weather shouldn’t affect this game in Los Angeles and the Bills should have plenty of trips to the red zone.
