Rams reportedly work out former Cowboys K Brett Maher amid Greg Zuerlein's injury

With Greg Zuerlein dealing with a quad injury, the Rams worked out former Cowboys kicker Brett Maher, according to Field Yates of ESPN.com. This Maher audition comes after he traveled to Tennessee for a workout with the Titans, who ended up signing Greg Joseph off the Panthers’ practice squad. Zuerlein has not missed a game this season but missed five in 2018. Sean McVay said earlier this week the Rams would explore kicking options. Maher had been Dallas’ kicker from the start of last season to earlier this month, but his 10-of-20 connect rate — which included two 60-plus-yarders — prompted the Cowboys to move on. Maher, who also made a 62-yard field goal as a rookie in 2018, made 29 of 36 field goals last season. He was 36-of-36 on extra points in 13 Cowboy games this year. Last season, the Rams used Cairo Santos and Sam Ficken in Zuerlein’s five-game absence. The All-Pro specialist returned late in the season and made both the game-tying and game-winning field goals to send Los Angeles to the Super Bowl. T
