The Los Angeles Rams didn’t waste much time making a move at kicker after Brett Maher missed three kicks in Sunday’s loss. They cut Maher on Tuesday and will replace him with Lucas Havrisik.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Rams plan to sign Havrisik off the Browns’ practice squad, which will land him a spot on Los Angeles’ 53-man roster and at least three game checks.
Havrisik originally signed to the Colts’ practice squad in 2022 but was cut shortly after. He signed a futures contract with Indianapolis in January but was released just before the season started and had been on the Browns’ practice squad ever since.
He has yet to attempt a kick in a regular-season game.
