The Los Angeles Rams need another new kicker.
Blake Grupe has been placed on injured reserve after exiting Sunday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the team announced on Monday.
Grupe suffered a torn ACL, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Grupe made his Rams debut on Sunday after being signed off the Jets' practice squad on Tuesday to replace Harrison Mevis, who had a potential winning field goal blocked and missed another in the Rams' 37-34 overtime loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday night.
Grupe was hurt after bringing down Devin Duvernay on a 40-yard kickoff return near midfield just over five minutes into the game.
He went straight back to the locker room following an evaluation in the blue medical tent. The Rams ruled him out for the rest of the game early in the fourth quarter. Grupe had a large brace on his knee in the locker room after the game.
Grupe had made a 44-yard field goal to put the Rams up 3-0 with 9:41 left into the first quarter.
The 27-year-old was the Rams’ fifth kicker in their past 57 games. He made all 11 of his field goals in a five-game stint with the Indianapolis Colts last season, having started his NFL career with the New Orleans Saints in 2023.
