Steelers' Chris Boswell: Concludes career-best season
Rotowire
Boswell converted 41 of 44 field-goal attempts while making all 35 of his extra-point tries over 17 regular-season appearances with the Steelers in 2024.
Boswell was a bright spot for the Steelers during the 2024 campaign, as he set career-best marks in field goals made and makes from 50-plus yards while staying healthy for a second consecutive season. The 33-year-old still has two years remaining on his contract, and the Steelers are unlikely to be motivated to seek out another option ahead of the 2025 season given his production this year.

Boswell still has a couple of days to shake off the illness before Saturday's wild-card game against the Ravens.

Steelers' Chris Boswell: Kicker to Start
Rotowire
I hope the bye week doesn't slow down Boswell, who scored at least 14 Fantasy points in three games in a row prior to Week 8. Boswell has missed just one field goal this year and none since Week 3, and he's connected on all of his PATs. The Commanders have allowed just two kickers to score double digits in Fantasy points, but I like Boswell as a top-10 Fantasy option in all leagues.

Steelers' Chris Boswell: Fantastic in road win
Rotowire
Boswell made all four of his field-goal attempts and both of his two extra-point tries during Sunday's 32-13 win at Las Vegas.
The veteran has been nearly perfect to start the year, and as of the end of the day Sunday, his 16 made field goals on the season are good for second in the league behind only Brandon Aubrey (17).

Steelers' Chris Boswell: Bounces back in 2023
Rotowire
Boswell completed 29 of 31 field-goal attempts while making 27 of 28 extra-point tries during the 2023 campaign.
Boswell had one of the worst seasons of his career in 2022 by converting just 71.4 percent of his field-goal tries over 12 games. However, he won a kicking competition during training camp this year to retain his job, and he rewarded the Steelers with a bounce-back performance. The 32-year-old converted six of his seven attempts from at least 50 yards, and he's now made 21 attempts from at least 50 yards over the past three seasons. Boswell signed a four-year, $20 million contract with the Steelers in August of 2022, so he'll presumably be back with the team for his age-33 season following a solid showing this year.
