Going into this week for the Los Angeles Rams, it was a big deal who they would go with at their kicking position, and they went with Harrison Mevis over Joshua Karty and Mevis responded by going a perfect 6-6 on extra points. No drama at the kicking position for the Rams on Sunday, so McVay’s change worked.
Will Mevis be the kicker going forward? It’s a fair question. What will happen with Karty? Fair question.
Enjoy your victory Monday, please comment on whatever you want and thank you for checking out Turf Show Times!
