Vikings rookie kicker

Will Reichard, the Minnesota Vikings' newly drafted kicker, showcased his impressive skills during a live practice session, successfully completing all six of his field goal attempts, including a remarkable 58-yarder. The Vikings selected Reichard in the sixth round, making him the team's top choice for the kicker position after releasing John Parker Romo, who had yet to play in an NFL regular-season game. Reichard holds the NCAA record for the most career points scored, demonstrating both mechanical consistency and mental toughness developed during his time at Alabama. Coaches and teammates describe him as fearless and composed, essential qualities for a kicker in the high-pressure NFL environment. The Vikings hope Reichard can break the franchise's long-standing kicking issues, which have seen several past draft picks fail to deliver. As the only kicker on the roster, Reichard is set to make his mark in the upcoming season.
