Adam Vinatieri broke one record this week while closing in on another.

The Indianapolis Colts kicker set the all-time mark for field goals made with 566 in Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

Vinateri broke out of a tie with Hall of Famer Morten Andersen by converting a 42-yard kick in the third quarter.

Vinatieri, the oldest player in the NFL at 45, entered the week 33 points behind Andersen for the top spot as the league's all-time leader in scoring. He already hold the marks for the most consecutive field goals made (44), postseason field goals (56) and postseason points scored (234).

He's also the only player in NFL history to score 1,000 points with two different teams. He played for the New England Patriots from 1996-2005 and helped the team win four Super Bowls.
