Heartbreak: Indianapolis Colts greatest player of all time has finally announce his leaving due comeback of…

Nashville, Tennessee Andrew Luck’s decision to retire has already resulted in one unexpected retirement for the Indianapolis Colts. It’s possible that Luck won’t be the only guy placed on the reserve/retired list this season if the NFL’s oldest player and career scoring leader continues to miss the uprights.

Sunday’s 19-17 victory over the Tennessee Titans saw Adam Vinatieri miss not one, but two extra points, continuing his poor start to his 24th season. The only thing that prevented Tennessee from at least trying a field goal to deny the Colts their first victory was the Titans’ inability to convert on a fourth-and-2 at the Indianapolis 45 in the closing seconds.

After the game, the 46-year-old Vinatieri remained silent and hurriedly emptied his locker.

Frank Reich, the coach of Indianapolis, stated he wasn’t concerned about

Reich stated, “I have no concerns at all.” He really did strike the upright on the first try. Most likely, you saw the first one. It was not a successful procedure. There was dirt on the snap and hold. I held on to get a kick. The ball was unclean and scarcely touched the ground. Not a single worry.”

Jim Irsay, the owner of the Colts, disagreed, claiming Vinatieri’s mechanics are a problem.

The Indianapolis Star was informed by Irsay that “yes, it’s a concern.” “We’ll talk and try to take emotion out of big decisions.”

Vinatieri had a difficult game in the Colts’ opening overtime loss to the Chargers, missing his first season-opening extra point to the right. Then he kicked a 29-yard field goal to the left in the second quarter, but it was missed.

the latter part. It was only the seventh time Vinatieri had failed to convert a field goal inside 30 yards, and it was the first time he had failed to convert two of goals and an extra point in the same game.

Vinatieri’s first extra point of the game gave the Titans (1-1) a 7-0 lead in the first quarter. Halfway through the second quarter, following Jacoby Brissett’s second touchdown pass of the game, he missed his second attempt at an extra point. The Colts now led 13–7 as a result.

With 4:38 remaining, Vinatieri failed to convert his second extra point after Brissett had completed a 69-yard drive with a 4-yard touchdown pass to T.Y. Hilton, cutting the Colts’ lead to only 19-17. The right upright was struck by Vinatieri’s kick, causing the kicker to stoop.
