2025 Fantasy Outlook
The Rams stuck with Karty for all of 2024 after picking him in the sixth round, ultimately receiving what amounted to league-average performance. He made 85.3 percent of his field-goal attempts, including six of seven from 50-plus yards, but missed four of 36 PATs. Karty was perfect during two playoff games, including a snowy one at Philadelphia, all but locking down the kicker job for another year. The position has been a problem spot for the Rams in recent years, but there have also been a bunch of seasons under Sean McVay in which the team ranked at/near the top of the league in field-goal attempts or PATs.

Released by the Rams in November of 2025.
Added to Rams' practice squad
Karty was signed to the Rams' practice squad Monday.
ANALYSIS
Karty was waived by the team Friday, but he'll now stick around Los Angeles as a member of the team's practice unit. The kicker was relegated to the bench after the team signed Harrison Mevis in early November, and Karty will now have to wait for his next chance to join the active roster down the road.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Rams used a supplementary 2024 sixth-round pick on Karty, who converted 85.0 percent of field-goal attempts and 98.6 percent of PATs in three seasons as Stanford's kicker. He went 23 of 27 on three-point tries his final season, including just one miss inside of 50 yards. Karty is set up to compete with 2023 UDFA Tanner Brown for the Rams' kicker job -- a position that could come with plenty of volume given the talent Los Angeles has on offense. The Rams led the league in field-goal attempts (43) and misses (nine) last season, with Brett Maher and Lucas Havrisik both failing to impress while getting ample volume.
