The Indianapolis Colts did their research on free-agent kickers this week, but they are doubling down on veteran Adam Vinatieri.
Despite the 46-year-old missing 11 kicks in nine games, head coach Frank Reich was adamant the Colts are sticking with Vinatieri. He told reporters he sat down with general manager Chris Ballard, and they both decided Vinatieri is the one they want kicking.
It hasn’t been a typical season for Vinatieri, who already has more missed kicks than he did in all of 2018. With the Colts staying in close games — all have been decided by one score — they will need Vinatieri to be more accurate.
