Greg Zuerlein is being place on IR with a back injury, according to Adam Schefter. The Rams are signing former Penn State kicker Sam Ficken to replace Zuerlein. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Oddly enough, an injury to a kicker has huge fantasy ramifications, as Zuerlein was essentially the equivalent of having a stud position player. With one week left in most seasons, fantasy owners will need search the waiver wire for available options, or at least add Ficken to their rosters.
