Colts have worked out at least one kicker today, a league source says.

Indianapolis tried out former Jaguars K Matthew Wright, who will not be signing, per source.

There could obviously be more. Wright is the only one I've been able to confirm so far.

So why isn't Badgley already in Indy? He's a free agent and is available. he did a good job for us last year, I say bring him back ASAP!

It is done.

The Colts are moving on from Blankenship.

The Colts worked out a bunch of kickers today and likely will sign one or two to the practice squad, letting the competition continue.

Sometimes when it goes for kickers, it goes.

Blankenship started his career 30 for 33 (91%).

Since then, he’s 16 for 23 (69%). And then the kickoff issues compounded.

With no NFL track record to fall back on, the Colts had to try someone else.

Someone without those scars.

Honestly, I didn't feel like the Colts could move forward with Rodrigo.

For some w/ the team, the two out of bounds kickoffs were more frustrating than the 42-yard miss that would've won it in overtime.

EDIT: He can't even kick the ball in the fucking endzone.

I can see it already. Late in the year, at a critical point in a game, Specs will kick a game winning FG for the opposing team.

Day late and a dollar short, well at least for the Texans game. I'm dumbfounded by the fact that Reich and Ballard had enough confidence in Specs to keep him. Did they not see the shit we saw, a choke artist supreme? I guess they did because Verity was brought in, but fuck, I would have brought in 20 kickers.

Just thankful the Colts got rid of his weak legged sorry ass. I can't think of any Colt I have disliked more than Spec's, well, at least in the past 3 or 4 years anyway.

According to Joel Erickson of RATS, he was asked about the kick after the game and said something along the lines of “well, a tie is better than a loss.”

Yeah, f**k that guy.

That is my fear. The kid has a future, but not here. Someone will sign the guy, and he will improve over time. You just can't wait for that to happen if you think you are close to competing now.
