Matt Gay brought stability and consistency to special teams | Free … – therams.com

So, what are the options for Gay and the Rams?

Los Angeles could, of course, re-sign him. Last season alone, Gay made 28 of 30 field goal attempts, including a career-best 7 of 9 makes from 50-plus yards, and it marked the second-straight year his accuracy on such kicks was 93.3 percent or higher. Given how the aforementioned search for Zuerlein’s replacement went during the preseason and regular season, the Rams are likely well aware of how difficult it can be to find that stability.

If Gay and the Rams go in different directions, the Rams would likely explore finding his replacement via free agency or the draft – or perhaps both, if they were to decide to hold another competition like they did in 2020.
