  1. Are you really thinking ? that I am going to buy that story with the hip injury??? He is just in decline NOT injured. It’s mental NOT physical condition he’s being benched for. I played Rugby for 9 years. Kicker position is second easiest after the punter. He’s NOT getting hurt unless he is hits his left foot with his right foot for crying out loud. If he was hurt he wouldn’t have been able to kick field goals period. He’s no longer motivated to kick well. He knew that he had no competition in the NFL.
    He’s behind Adam Vinatieri.. He needs to retire or get his head out of the gutter.
