Greg Zuerlein's leg will be out of action for a while, as Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay announced Monday that the All-Pro kicker will miss at least a few weeks due to a groin injury.
Zuerlein sustained the injury in warmups ahead of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
"We’ll have a little bit better of an idea of exactly how long that will be once we get those full MRI results. But we’re expecting it to at least be a few weeks," McVay said.
Punter Johnny Hekker assumed emergency kicking duties in Week 2. He converted a 20-yard field goal and made his lone extra-point attempt.
The Rams signed kicker Sam Ficken on Monday. He played two games with the Rams last season, making two of three field-goal attempts and four of five extra points.
