Whitworth tore his MCL and will be out for six to eight weeks. Kickers Austin MacGinnis and Matt Gay are expected to compete for the starting job with Forbath sidelined. Whitworth, a 15-year veteran, still has a chance to return later this year if the team qualifies for the postseason. But his absence until then ...

Los Angeles Rams kicker Kai Forbath (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks.

The team's punter Johnny Hekker will likely fill in as the team's place-kicker for as long as Forbath is out on Sunday.

The Los Angeles Rams signed kicker Kai Forbath on Tuesday. Forbath was cut by the Cowboys earlier this year and hasn't kicked at all in 2020. The 33-year-old kicked in just four games in 2019 with the Cowboys and Patriots and made all 11 of his field-goal tries. He's bounced around the NFL in his nine-year career, playing for Washington, New Orleans, Minnesota, Jacksonville, Dallas and New England.

The Dallas Cowboys are re-signing kicker Kai Forbath to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to a source. Forbath was a perfect 10-for-10 on his field-goal tries in three games for Dallas last season, including going 7-for-7 from 40-49 yards out and 1-for-1 on 50-plus tries. He also made all 10 of his extra points. Forbath is an 86.8 percent kicker in his nine years in the NFL and will be much more attractive in fantasy over a full season for the Cowboys.
