Brett Maher cost the Rams seven points by missing two field-goal attempts and an extra point in a seven-point loss to the Steelers. Rams might replace him.

The Rams lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers, 24-17, on Sunday at SoFi Stadium. Takeaways from a defeat that dropped the Rams’ record to 3-4: It’s a tough job. We get it. Usually, kickers are not the focus unless they’ve made a dramatic game–winning kick — or struggles cost their team victories. Brett Maher’s miscues — two missed field-goal attempts and an extra-point miss — cost the Rams seven points, which turned out to be the Steelers’ margin of victory.

The Rams signed Henderson last week as a possible replacement for starter Kyren Williams, who was placed on injured reserve because of an ankle injury. Henderson had not played in a game since last November, when the Rams released him after three-plus seasons often marred by injuries. Henderson started against the Steelers and broke off a 16-yard run on his first carry. He finished with 61 yards and a touchdown in 18 carries. He also caught a pass.
