Detroit Lions' Dan Campbell willing to give Austin Seibert 'another go' after missed FG

Dan Campbell hated his decision to try a long field goal late in Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings, but the Detroit Lions coach insisted Monday he has not lost any faith in kicker Austin Seibert.

"Well, yeah, listen, I’d be willing to give him another go," Campbell said at his weekly news conference. "I mean, if I didn’t feel that way I wouldn’t have let him kick there at the end of the game."

Seibert, who won a training camp battle with Riley Patterson for the Lions' kicking job this summer, missed two of three field goal tries Sunday, including a 54-yarder with 1:10 to play that set up the Vikings' game-winning touchdown.
