Fuad Reveiz found his footing as NFL kicker with Vikings

Editor's note: Columnists Chip Scoggins, Jim Souhan and Patrick Reusse revisit people from stories of years past. In the second of six parts, Jim checks in on former Vikings kicker Fuad Reveiz.

On Dec. 20, 1992, the Vikings trailed the Steelers 3-0 in the fourth quarter in Pittsburgh. A victory would send the Vikings to the playoffs.

Tony Dungy’s defense held, Fuad Reveiz kicked two field goals, and the Vikings won the NFC Central. In 1994, Reveiz made the Pro Bowl and won the Pro Football Writers Golden Toe Award, perhaps the peak of his 11-year NFL career.
