Dominic Zvada's fantasy role in Week 8
Dominic Zvada goes into Week 8 of the 2026 season as a matchup-dependent K option for the NYG. He is rostered in 40% of leagues and actually started in 32% of them, and we rank him K5 on our own weekly board at 6.2 projected points.
Interest is cooling — roster rates slipped roughly 15% in the last week, so he is getting cheaper to acquire if you believe in the role.
No injury designation to work around right now, which keeps his projection honest.

Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Dominic Zvada (NYG K), our K5 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season (his team is on bye), projecting 6.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's angle is simple: he's a top-six K on our board, and she never benches the guys who win weeks. He's without an opponent this week, which caps this at a roster-hold conversation. He's being dropped at a 15.2% clip, and I don't think the market is wrong about it. Only 40% of leagues roster him, so this is cheap production before the price goes up. Mild heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Dominic Zvada (NYG K), our K5 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season (his team is on bye), projecting 6.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina would rather take the cheaper, steadier option than 1.3 points of shortfall. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. Roster share is bleeding 15.2% this week, which lines up with what the projection already told me. Only 40% of leagues roster him, so this is cheap production before the price goes up. Mild heat, high rank: reliable points without the fireworks.
