Burned by a kicker, Seahawks reportedly trying out Sebastian Janikowski | The News Tribune

This time last year the Seahawks wanted to get younger and cheaper at kicker.

Now, burned by that decision in 2017, they are apparently considering going about as old as there is in the game.

After repeated misses by Blair Walsh last season, Seattle is set to host 40-year-old Sebastian Janikowski on a free-agent visit Tuesday. That is according to a report by ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Janikowski began last season, his 18th consecutive one for the Oakland Raiders, as the league's sixth-oldest player. Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri is the NFL's oldest, at 45 years.
