Report: Adam Vinatieri wants to keep kicking
Adam Vinatieri isn't ready to call it quits.
The legendary kicker told FOX59's Mike Chappell, "I'd like to play again. But if not, that's part of the deal."
Vinatieri is coming off a "crappy season," the worst of his professional career. The hall-of-fame bound kicker missed a league-leading 14 kicks, six extra points (22-of-28) and eight field goals (17-of-25) before going on injured reserve Dec. 9 with a left knee injury.
The Colts brought in rookie Chase McLaughlin to replace him, who went on to connect on all 11 of his extra points and 5-of-6 field goals in four games with the Colts. The performance earned him a one-year contract extension.
