Rams release Ficken, add Santos

The Rams have released K Sam Ficken, who made just 1 of 3 FGs over the past 2 weeks. K Greg Zuerlein isn't ready to return from his groin injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, so we'll see who the Rams sign.

UPDATE: The Rams have signed K Cairo Santos. With a career 84.1% FG conversion rate, he'll be a viable spot starter for however long Zuerlein remains out.

The Titans placed K Sam Ficken (groin) on IR, knocking him out for at least the first 3 games of the season. Michael Badgley will kick in his place. He's a viable Week 1 fantasy option in a likely shootout vs. the Cardinals.

Titans K Sam Ficken (groin) was added to the injury report on Friday and is questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Cardinals. Tennessee signed K Michael Badgley, so there must be real concern about Ficken's availability. Avoid the situation in Week 1 fantasy lineups.

The Titans claimed K Sam Ficken off waivers. He was dumped by the Jets on Friday but will now compete with K Tucker McCann for the starting job in Tennessee. Avoid the situation in fantasy drafts until a winner emerges.

Jets K Sam Ficken (groin) is doubtful for Week 7. Practice-squad K Sergio Castillo figures to be promoted for Sunday’s game against the Bills. Avoid the situation in fantasy lineups.

The Jets have released K Kaare Vedvik and signed K Sam Ficken. Vedvik missed a FG and an XP in the Jets' 1-point loss to the Bills on Sunday. Ficken made just 3 of 6 FG attempts in fill-in duty for the Rams over the past 2 seasons. Look elsewhere for your fantasy K.
