With the announcement that Indianapolis Colts placekicker Adam Vinatieri is out for six weeks (click to see the story on SB Nations' Colts blog, "Stampede Blue"), the Colts have signed former Baltimore Ravens kicker Matt Stover.

Ironically, Stover has had calls from both the Cleveland Browns and now the Colts since his release from the Ravens after playing his entire career with the Browns/Ravens. Most people thought he would play again, but to go with the Colts is a bit of a surprise. Knowing Stover's distance is way off and even his accuracy was on the downslide compared to the old "automatic" Stover, I guess we'll get a chance to see what he's got left in the tank.

With mixed feelings, good luck Matt!
