Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Feely was coming off one of his best seasons, which made his release a surprise. He made 21 of 23 field goals last season, setting a team single-season record for field-goal percentage, and was one of the few bright spots on last year's 1-15 team. ... Carpenter made field goals of 41 and 49 yards in Miami's 17-6 preseason loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday. Feely has been sidelined with a groin strain that forced him to sit out practice last week and miss the preseason opener.
