Summary

Kicker Rank: #69All Players: #1142
Hanson continues to chug along even at age 42. He scored 126 points last season and made 82.8 percent of his field goals. Hanson doesn't seem to be slowing down much. He made 5-of-7 field goals from 50-plus yards, which was the second highest total of his career in that range. His leg remains strong as he keeps himself in good shape. The Lions aren't going to hand him the starter's job at his age but it is his to lose. And Hanson should get plenty of chances in a great Lions offense. He has 11, 100-point seasons for his career. Hanson remains fairly accurate, kicking in a dome, and still has strong leg.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Hanson has been a steady fantasy option for years. As long as he is starting for the Lions, he is a legit fantasy kicker. He can score around 130 points in this offense. Don't overlook him come draft day because of his age. He has high upside.

Detroit Lions PK Jason Hanson said he thinks he wants to play next season. He turns 43 in June and will be a free agent after the season. 'I think so,' Hanson said when asked if he wants to keep playing. 'I know I can. Like I said, I haven't really processed all that. Just get some of the nagging little kicker owies, toenail hurts, that kind of thing, let that calm down and then just really evaluate because I know I don't want to play anymore unless I know I want to play and feel like I'm going to show up for offseason and run and do all the stuff.'
