Vinatieri is the NFL's all-time scoring leader, with 2,673 points and the record-holder for made field-goals (599). He's a four-time Super Bowl champion. Three of those rings came during his decade-long stint with the Patriots. He won the other during a later 14-year stint with the Colts. He played 24 seasons in total and nailed a number of memorable kicks along the way.

"And they have a unit as a whole that does a really good job of getting him started in his returns. ... You just want to contain this guy, and not let him make a play that could change the game."
