Rams kicker Blake Grupe injured in L.A. debut against Cardinals

Blake Grupe, the Rams' new kicker, suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of their Week 6 game against the Cardinals on October 18. Grupe had made a 44-yard field goal before the injury and is now doubtful to return. Punter Ethan Evans is expected to take over kicking duties despite having no previous field goal attempts in the NFL. The Rams have struggled with special teams consistency, now potentially looking at their third kicker this season depending on Grupe’s recovery.
