YOU would have then been suspended ... without pay ... and still NOT a free agent
Plus, your team could force you to pay back some of your rookie contract signing bonus.
And, A LOT OF PEOPLE would mock you. So ... Great Strategy!

That's just how I am personally. Id rather do something else than be somewhere I'm not wanted.
Karty will get the chance next year on another team regardless.
Well, keep in mind Karty is from California, but I absolutely agree, if I am Karty I move on. I also believe the Rams have found their kicker of the present & the future.
Mevis sure seems like a likeable guy, The team seems to like him, head butts him and all that. Coach smiles when he drills a kick.
We are good.
We are good.
That's the thing, he was wanted. They were loyal to him, kept getting him his checks. On a PS he'll make a fraction of what he was making. And next year? He'll have to make a roster in order to get paid
You're not understanding.
If you did exactly what you suggested, you would be in violation of your contract.
It would be like you retired.
You would not have gotten paid, You would not be a free agent to sign elsewhere ... in 2025 ... 2026 ... 2027.
Your NFL career would be over unless the Rams released you ... Which they would NOT be obligated to do.

Kickers go through the Yips every now and then, normally early in their career before they learn how to self manage at the professional level. Karty most likely will get himself straightened out, even if he has to work with a kicking specialist. He has a big leg, and, if he gets back in the groove, he should resurface on an NFL franchise - perhaps even ours.

Really wish it would have worked out but we have games to win.
I'm stoked. I prefer the thicker kicker. I'm just hoping he can use that frame to lay out a returner at some point. That will be amazing.
Yep same with Kupp,Gurley & Goff, I loved them all in horns but the front office made the right decision with all 3
Bummer for Karty. I remember in the draft, he and his mom were stoked he was going to the Rams. I like a story like that.
Now hopefully the thicker kicker upper can keep it going.

Too early to claim he's the kicker of the future. A lot thought the same about Karty.
I hope Karty can bounce back. I have nothing against Mevis, but he's had bad years in college as well.
I don't think we have an answer yet, so I hope Karty signs with our practice squad. If not, I wish him well in his next opportunity, so long as it doesn't affect our team.

Why are we looking at his college years rather than his UFL time?
PHILLY’s Kicker just missed an extra point.
Bears 10 - Philly 9
The Rams have been solid with extra points with the Thicker Kicker. He has proven to be consistent.
I really haven’t watched him much or noticed his set up ? On his 50 yard field goal he got through it quick. It almost seemed he takes only like 2 1/2 steps back.He hit it pretty good,SO that’s my take his kicking FG’s.
