Colts coach Frank Reich on kicker Michael Badgley: When he hasn't missed, why not ride him?

The Colts are giving a vote of confidence to their new kicker.

Michael Badgley has found comfort in the chaos of a makeshift role. Signed in Week 6 to fill in for an injured Rodrigo Blankenship, the fourth-year kicker has converted all 17 of his kicks, including four field goals and two of more than 40 yards.

Colts coach Frank Reich said Wednesday that it's still Badgley's job.

"When you have a guy who hasn't missed, why not ride him?" Reich said. "We really haven't had that full-blown discussion at this point. It really has been by and large part based on Rod continuing to get back and get better.
