St. Louis Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Zuerlein has been dealing with a groin injury. Zach Hocker was signed by the team on Saturday and will start as the team's place kicker. Zuerlein has struggled with accuracy issues as over the past six weeks, converting barely over 50 percent of his 17 field goal attempts.
Greg Zuerlein injury update: Rams kicker ruled inactive for fantasy owners
Greg Zuerlein won’t be playing in Week 12. We take a look at the fantasy implications.

Fantasy impact: Zuerlein is owned in just six percent of Yahoo! leagues, so there aren’t many fantasy owners that will have to adjust their lineups. Even if Zuerlein were active, it’s well past time to move on from him. He’s been a liability both to the Rams and any fantasy owners out there. His floor is dangerously low, and he’s seen double-digit fantasy points just twice in 2015. Zuerlein is schedule for unrestricted free agency after the 2015 season. Hocker isn’t worth the gamble in Week 12 unless you’re in a deep league with few options at the kicker position.
