After a long and determined road to recovery, a former Detroit Lions kicker is officially back in the NFL — and once again, it’s with a familiar team.
The Indianapolis Colts have re-signed the veteran kicker for a third stint with the franchise following his successful comeback from injury. The signing highlights not only his resilience but also the Colts’ confidence in his ability to step right back into the pressure-packed world of NFL kicking.
The former Lion, who previously spent time in Detroit showcasing a powerful leg and steady accuracy, faced significant hurdles after injuries derailed his career. Now, with a clean bill of health and renewed motivation, he’s ready to make an impact once more — this time as a key special teams contributor for Indianapolis.
Fans of both the Lions and Colts will remember his consistency and calm under pressure, and his return adds valuable experience to a young Colts roster. For the kicker, it’s another shot at redemption — and proof that perseverance can truly pay off in the NFL.
If he performs as expected, this latest comeback could mark one of the most inspiring stories of the 2025 season.
