Vikings add ex-kicker Nate Kaeding as a consultant
The Vikings have added a part-time kicking coach.
Nate Kaeding, a nine-year NFL veteran, will help coach kicker Dan Bailey and the Vikings field goal operation during offseason workouts.
During Wednesday's Organized Team Activity practice, Kaeding worked closely with punter Matt Wile on holds and oversaw a team field goal session in which Bailey made all six attempts. Kaeding has driven to the TCO Performance Center in Eagan a couple times a week from his Iowa home, according to special teams coach Marwan Maalouf.
Kaeding, 37, was a two-time Pro Bowler, and was first team All-Pro in 2009 when he made 32 of 35 field goal attempts for San Diego and had an NFL-leading 146 points.
