Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher is locked in as a top-five option at the position. Maher has hit three field goals in each of his first three games of the season and is connecting on them. The 33-year-old has made nine of 11 field goal attempts and is five-of-five on extra point tries. Maher is a must-start going forward and will continue to get these opportunities, considering how great the Rams have been at getting down the field at will. He is a great play and should not be on any waiver wires, as he faces the Indianapolis Colts in Week 4.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher should now be rostered in all leagues as he's ranked top-five at the position. The team faces the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3, an excellent spot for the former Cowboys kicker. The Bengals have surrendered five field goal makes on six attempts through the season's first two games. The team's young defense has been struggling, and the Rams will have opportunities to drive down the field consistently, putting them in field-goal range. Maher is a must-start and a great option in Week 3.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher did not miss in the team's 30-23 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The former Cowboys kicker went 3-for-3 on field goals and 2-for-2 on extra point tries. As a result of this Rams' offense being as high-paced as it is, Maher has attempted eight field goals through the first two games and has made six of them. The Nebraska product was a top-three fantasy kicker last season and is on his way to do so again. Maher has been a solid fantasy option this season and can be used as a streamer in the Week 3 matchup against the Bengals.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher had a busy debut with the team as he attempted five field goals in their Week 1 victory. While the former Cowboys kicker did miss two of his five attempts, one was a 56-yarder, and the other was a 57-yarder. Maher will get plenty of opportunities this season and has a real chance to be a top fantasy kicker again. Maher is an excellent option at the position if you still need to get a reliable kicker. However, fantasy managers might want to find a different streaming option in Week 2. The Rams offense could have trouble moving the ball in a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, who allowed just seven points to the Steelers in Week 1.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher struggled at the end of last season with the Dallas Cowboys, and his struggles continued in the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Maher made all three of his extra point attempts but missed two of his five field goal tries in his Rams debut. The Rams' offense looked explosive, so Maher might see plenty of field goal opportunities this season. That said, he likely won't have a job long if he continues to miss field goals moving forward.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher will make his debut with the team in their Week 1 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The former Cowboy finished with the third most points among all kickers last season, as he went 29-for-32 and hit nine 50+ yard field goals. Matt Gay, who kicked for the Rams last season, finished top-eight at the position in 2022, showing how often this team settles for field goals. While there are still other kickers ranked above him in the latest RotoBaller rankings, Maher is a solid fantasy option this week.

The Los Angeles Rams are finalizing an undisclosed contract with veteran kicker Brett Maher on Wednesday, according to a source. The Rams will go with Maher after releasing Tanner Brown on roster cutdown day on Tuesday. The 33-year-old Maher was with the Denver Broncos during training camp and the preseason, but they traded for Wil Lutz on Tuesday and decided to go in another direction. The Rams will probably have a short leash on Maher to open the season, but he appears to be their starter now. He made a career-high 90.6 percent of his 32 field-goal attempts last year for the Dallas Cowboys and also missed just three of his league-high 53 extra-point tries in 17 games. Maher is a career 81% kicker in four NFL seasons and has a strong leg, but fantasy managers should be able to find better options to begin the 2023 campaign at the position.
