Will the Minnesota Vikings ever solve their kicking woes?
The Minnesota Vikings will open the season with their fourth different kicker in four seasons. Who is to blame for the team’s inconsistency?
The Minnesota Vikings find themselves in yet another undesirable kicking situation this year. After using a fifth-round pick in 2018 to select Daniel Carlson, and then to only waive him after two games, the Vikings acquired kicker/punter Kaare Vedvik from the Baltimore Ravens last week for a 2020 fifth-round draft pick.
Vedvik, an undrafted free agent from Marshall, signed with Baltimore in 2018 but wound up on the reserve/non-injury list after he was assaulted in public prior to the regular season.
