Sean McVay has seen enough. The Los Angeles Rams are making a change at kicker.
According to NFL Network, the Rams are cutting Harrison Mevis and signing Blake Grupe off the New York Jets' practice squad. Mevis missed a 50-yard field goal in the first quarter and had a potential game-winning 48-yard field goal blocked in overtime, costing the Rams in a pivotal game against the Buffalo Bills.
They were the third and fourth misses of the season by Mevis, who only missed one kick all of last season.

McVay hinted that a change could be coming after Monday night's loss. He said he would "evaluate everything" with the kicking unit and said it was "not even close to good enough."
"It cost us the game tonight," he said flatly.
Grupe spent last season with the Saints before being cut and signed by the Colts. He finished the year 29-for-37 on field goal attempts, making all 11 tries after joining the Colts.
He was cut by the Colts this summer and was claimed off waivers by the Jets, who then waived and re-signed him to the practice squad. Now, he lands on the Rams' 53-man roster after being poached off the Jets' practice squad.
In his career, Grupe is 86-for-105 on field goal attempts (81.9%) and 96-for-98 on PATs (98%).
