Reveiz found his footing as an 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 would make the Pro Bowl and win the Pro Football Writers Golden Toe Award, perhaps the peak of an 11-year NFL career.
