The Indianapolis Colts will take a look at the free-agent market for kickers amid the struggles of future Hall of Famer Adam Vinatieri, per Dan Graziano of ESPN.

Vinatieri missed his 11th kick of the season on an extra-point attempt in the embarrassing 16-12 loss against the Miami Dolphins in Week 10.

This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. The Colts have said they will continue to evaluate the roster — even if it means a potential release of the points leader in NFL history.

Vinatieri has meant a lot to the Colts for 14 seasons, but his inconsistency on field goals and extra points is costing them games. With his 47th birthday coming next month, Vinatieri is the oldest player in the NFL. It is prudent that they at least know what’s available on the market.

This is a situation to monitor as the season progresses if the Colts wind up making a move.
