Tanner Brown Fantasy Stats

The Los Angeles Rams signed kicker Tanner Browns to the practice squad on Tuesday, according to NFL.com. The 24-year-old went unselected in last year's NFL Draft out of Oklahoma State and has been on and off the L.A. roster since signing with the organization after the draft. Starting kicker Joshua Karty has made all three of his field goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries to begin the year, so it's unclear whether Brown will be given a chance to earn the starting role. Either way, the Rams offense is likely to struggle with Puka Nacua (knee), Cooper Kupp (foot), and several offensive linemen on the shelf, so he would not be an attractive fantasy kicker option if he plays anytime soon.

With the Los Angeles Rams waiving kicker Christopher Dunn this week, Tanner Brown is currently the only kicker on their roster after mandatory minicamps wrapped up. It seems the Rams have decided to go with Brown as their starting kicker, but they could still bring in more competition for him at training camp at the end of July. Brown, a 24-year-old undrafted free agent, will be looking to replace Pro Bowler Matt Gay, who has been one of the most accurate kickers in the league. Even if Brown eventually wins the starting job heading into Week 1 of the regular season, fantasy managers should avoid him in an offense that isn't expected to be much better than they were in 2022.
