IF this becomes a chronic problem now, it could be another factor for the Texans in their division race. I would suspect either way the Colts are now going to be scampering for some sort of backup insurance just in case. I don't know how reliable a kicker they can pick up at this point in time.
Colts' Vinatieri misses practice with sprain
NFL.com wire reports
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (Aug. 15, 2006) -- Kicker Adam Vinatieri, the Indianapolis Colts' biggest offseason acquisition, missed practice with a sprained ankle.
Coach Tony Dungy said Vinatieri hurt his ankle while running, the same day the Colts cut Shane Andrus, the only other kicker on the roster.
"He did it in conditioning, and he's day-to-day," Dungy said.
Indianapolis signed Vinatieri, considered the NFL's best clutch kicker, to a five-year contract in March to replace Mike Vanderjagt. Vinatieri had two Super Bowl-winning field goals with New England.
