Kick, punt, snap — and win

Rams' specialists enter the season a confident group
RAMS KICKER Joshua Karty at SoFi Stadium last December. The 2024 sixthround draft pick out of Stanford aims to pick up where he left off last season.
Joshua Karty, Ethan Evans and Alex Ward still have a long way to go.
But the Rams' kicker, punter/holder and long-snapper, respectively, have shown signs that they could have the collective staying power of former Rams stalwarts Greg Zuerlein, Johnny Hekker and Jake McQuaide.
From 2012 to 2019, Zuerlein kicked, Hekker punted (and occasionally passed) and McQuaide snapped for the Rams under former special teams coordinator John Fassel.
The current specialists can envision a similarly lengthy future together.
"We all work really well with each other," said Evans, a third-year pro. "We all know exactly what each other's do's and don'ts are, what makes each other better.
“So I feel like we all complement each other really well — and I think we could do that for a long time."
