Dan Bailey Released By Vikings
4 years agoKicker Dan Bailey is set to hit the open market after having been released by the Minnesota Vikings on Tuesday. Bailey uncharacteristically struggled last season, converting a career-low 68.2 percent of his field-goal attempts (15-for-22). While just one of those misses came from inside 40 yards, Bailey was just 2-for-5 from 50 yards and beyond, whereas he had missed just one kick from that distance during his first two years in Minnesota. Additionally, Bailey did not convert six extra points, setting a career low in that category as well (86 percent). Greg Joseph could take over come 2021, but not having kicked in an NFL game since 2018 may force the Vikings to continue looking outside the organization for their next kicker.
