News

  • Cut loose by Minnesota

    The Vikings released Bailey on Tuesday, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: The writing was on the wall when the Vikings signed Greg Joseph in February. After missing seven field-goal attempts and six PATs last season, Bailey was never returning to Minnesota without accepting a pay cut on his scheduled $2.7 million salary. He now becomes a free agent instead.

  • Facing competition from Greg Joseph

    Bailey could face job competition from Greg Joseph, who signed with the Vikings on Tuesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Actually, it's possible Bailey never even gets a chance to compete, considering two-thirds of his 2021 base salary ($2.7 million) becomes fully guaranteed March 19. The Vikings would be unwise to spend that much on a kicker who missed seven field goals and six extra points last season, but they might let Bailey stick around to compete for the job if he's willing to cancel the guarantee or accept a pay cut.

  • Up-and-down campaign

    Bailey made 15 of 22 field-goal attempts and 37 of 43 extra-point tries during the 2020 season.

    Analysis: In his third year with Minnesota, Bailey had one of his worst seasons and ended with a career low in field-goal percentage (68.2). After the kicker made 93.1 percent of his field-goal attempts in 2019, he couldn't put up the same mark this year. The kicker proved reliable inside 40 yards, going 9-for-10, but wasn't consistent from 40-plus, making only seven of 13 from that range. Along with inconsistency on FGAs, he was also up and down with PATs. Last season, Bailey missed four extra points,…read more

  • Ready for Week 17

    Bailey (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Analysis: The 32-year-old was considered questionable, but it's not a major surprise to see him good to go since the Vikings didn't add a replacement kicker to the roster Saturday. Bailey will look to finish an up-and-down season on a strong note Sunday.

  • Carries questionable tag for finale

    Bailey (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Detroit.

    Analysis: Bailey's back injury kept him from practicing Wednesday and Thursday before he returned to work Friday as a limited participant. While he's not yet in the clear to play Week 17, the Vikings notably haven't added another kicker to the 53-man roster yet, which suggests that the team is tentatively planning on Bailey being available. Bailey said earlier Friday that it will ultimately be a "collective decision" on whether he fights through his back injury to suit up for the season finale, according…read more

  • Misses Thursday's practice

    Bailey (back) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Bailey's consecutive absences from practice to begin the week isn't a great sign as the Vikings prepare for Sunday's season finale versus the Lions. At this stage, the Vikings haven't added another kicker to the 53-man roster, signaling the team is tentatively planning on Bailey being ready to go by the weekend. Minnesota will likely wait and see what Bailey is able to do at Friday's practice before making a more official call on his status for Week 17.

  • Dealing with back injury

    Bailey didn't practice Wednesday due to a back injury.

    Analysis: Bailey has hardly missed any time in 10 seasons as a pro, logging six absences across 159 possible appearances. All of them happened between 2017 and 2018, and it's unclear if his current back issue is threatening his ability to play in Sunday's season finale at Detroit. The Vikings have another kicker in Taylor Bertolet stashed on the practice squad, so if he's elevated or signed outright to the active roster in the next few days, Bailey may be in danger of missing his seventh career game.

  • Misfires on extra point

    Bailey made three of four extra-point attempts in Friday's 52-33 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: The blowout nature of the Christmas Day game provided minimal opportunities for Bailey, as he didn't attempt a field goal for the fifth time this season. The veteran kicker also missed his fourth extra point in as many games. His job should nevertheless be secure for the season finale against the Lions.

  • Bounces back with perfect outing

    Bailey connected on two field-goal attempts and three extra-point tries in Sunday's 33-27 loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: The Vikings put their faith in Bailey after he missed four kicks in last week's loss to the Buccaneers. Bailey rewarded their confidence by making all five kicks, although he wasn't truly tested since both field goals came from within 30 yards. Nevertheless, Bailey should retain his job for the remainder of the season, as the Vikings head to New Orleans and Detroit -- both dome settings -- over the final two weeks, respectively.

  • Misses all four kicks

    Bailey missed three field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Bailey missed an extra point following the Vikings' first touchdown of the day, and he later misfired on field-goal tries from 36, 54 and 46 yards. He also missed two extra-point tries in last week's win over Jacksonville. Having made just 12 of 18 field-goal attempts (67 percent) this year, Bailey's job security is in serious doubt ahead of a crucial matchup against the Bears in Week 15. Coach Mike Zimmer said Monday that a decision hasn't been made regarding if Bailey will kick for the team…read more

  • Misfires on three kicks

    Bailey made two of three field-goal attempts and one of three extra-point tries in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: It was a tough outing for Bailey, as he missed two extra points in regulation. Making those kicks would've negated the need for a potential game-winning, 51-yard try late in the fourth quarter, which he pulled wide left. However, Bailey made up for the misfires by connecting on a 23-yarder in overtime to secure the Vikings' sixth win of the season. The veteran kicker has made 12 of 15 field-goal attempts and 27 of 30 extra-point tries this year. The Vikings travel to Tampa Bay in Week 14.

  • Knocks home four kicks

    Bailey connected on two field-goal attempts and two extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Bailey connected on a season-long 53-yard field goal as time expired in the first half, and he added a 25-yarder just 13 seconds into the fourth quarter. This was just the second time this season that Bailey hit two field goals in a game, as the Vikings lead the league with a 77.8 percent red-zone conversation rate. He's tough to depend on at that clip. Bailey will look to garner more opportunities against the Jaguars in Week 13.

  • Extra points only

    Bailey made all four extra-point attempts in Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: The game script simply didn't favor Bailey in this matchup, as he didn't attempt a field goal for the fourth time in five games. The Vikings have serious weapons on offense, and while they're mediocre in points scored (13th), they lead the league with a 78.1 percent red-zone conversion rate. That leaves few opportunities for Bailey, so he's a volatile fantasy asset.

  • Nets seven points

    Bailey made both of his field-goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Monday night's 19-13 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Bailey converted from 37 and 43 yards on consecutive kicks during the third quarter before tacking on a PAT in the fourth. Although Monday marked an above-average outing for the veteran, Bailey still only sports 44 points through nine games.

  • Lackluster production once again

    Bailey made four of five extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: For a third straight game, Bailey didn't attempt a field goal, although that was more a result of the game script than anything else. Minnesota's elite red-zone efficiency also factors into the equation, as it ranks third in the league this year at 76.9 percent. Perhaps he'll garner more opportunities against the Bears' top-ranked red-zone defense (41.9 percent) in Week 10.

  • Scores four points

    Bailey did not attempt a field goal but converted all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 28-22 win over the Packers.

    Analysis: Bailey fought windy conditions to put together a perfect showing Sunday. Although his 33 points through seven games is nothing to write home about, Bailey still has only missed two of 23 total kicks this season.

  • Held to one extra point

    Bailey made his lone kick -- an extra point -- in Sunday's 40-23 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: The Vikings' offense had a pitiful first half, as Kirk Cousins tossed three interceptions and the team failed to capitalize on its lone red-zone trip. They entered halftime with a 20-0 deficit, and although the team turned it around in the second half, it was too late for Bailey. The team scored three touchdowns but attempted just one extra point after halftime, often going for two points instead. The Vikings have a Week 7 bye on the docket, and they'll return to action in Week 8 against the…read more

  • Hits all four kicks

    Bailey made two field goals and two extra points in Sunday's 27-26 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: After missing a pair of field goals over the last two weeks, Bailey was perfect in the primetime showdown, knocking home kicks from 52 and 46 yards. It was the first field goal from beyond 50 yards that Bailey connected on since Week 14 of last season, and it's impressive that he did it in rainy weather. The Vikings' offense has plenty of weapons and should keep providing Bailey opportunities to score, and he'll be a top-tier option at home Week 6 against the Falcons.

  • Misses FG for second straight week

    Bailey made one of two field goals and all four extra-point attempts in Sunday's 31-23 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Bailey connected on a 31-yarder in the first half, but he sent a 55-yarder wide right in the second half. That made the Texans' final drive a bit more stressful for the Vikings, but they escaped with their first win of the season. Bailey has now missed two field goals and had another blocked over the last two games, so he'll try for a clean slate in Week 5 against the Seahawks.

  • Makes one of two FGs

    Bailey converted one of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point attempts during Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: The 32-year-old had his 54-yard attempt blocked during the third quarter and received a chance from closer due to an offside penalty, but he missed wide right from 49 yards out. Bailey hasn't had much production through three games, going 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on extra-point tries. The Texans have surrendered 95 points in three games, so Week 4 could be a favorable matchup.

  • Connects on lone attempt

    Bailey his a 21-yard field goal -- his lone attempt -- in Sunday's 28-11 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: It was a brutal day for the Vikings, as they gained just 208 total yards and crossed midfield just three times all afternoon. As a result, Bailey's fantasy value has taken a hit. The Titans come to Minnesota in Week 3, a matchup that could prove more favorable considering the Jaguars put up 30 points against them in Week 2.

  • Makes both kicks

    Bailey converted his only field-goal chance from 35 yards and made his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's loss to Green Bay.

    Analysis: The kicking game was about the only aspect of Minnesota's performance that didn't struggle in Sunday's 43-34 loss. Bailey's fantasy stats suffered when the Vikings went for three two-point conversions after falling behind big early.

  • Flawless start to camp

    Bailey made his first seven field-goal attempts in training camp, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Bailey re-signed with the Vikings in March after converting 27 of 29 field-goal tries last season. The veteran will hope to remain consistent as the lone kicker on the team's roster heading into the upcoming campaign.

  • Back with Vikings

    The Vikings re-signed Bailey on Thursday, Lindsey Young of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Bailey was hit-and-miss in 2018, connecting on 21 of 28 field-goal attempts, but his accuracy returned last season when he went awry on just two of his 29 such kicks. Overall, he ranks fourth in NFL history with a 93.1 percent success rate on field goals, so he should continue to remain a viable kicker option in support of a Kirk Cousins-led offense.

  • Nails four field goals in finale

    Bailey made all four field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try during Week 17's win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Bailey wraps up the 2019 campaign having played all 16 contests, converting 27 of 29 field-goal tries and 40 of 44 extra-point attempts in that span. The 31-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2020, though the Vikings could have incentive to bring him back, coming off a reliable season.

  • Busy day in California

    Bailey hit all four field goals and three of four extra-point tries in Sunday's 39-10 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: The Vikings poured it on, and Bailey attempted four field goals for the third time this season. He was good from 26, 44, 38 and 27 yards, as he continues to be perfect from under 40 yards this season. The 31-year-old has also drilled all four kicks from beyond 50 yards, but his struggles with extra points -- 34 of 38 -- continue to follow him. Bailey will look to have a clean outing in Week 16 against the Packers to try keeping the team's NFC North dreams alive.

    Bailey made both field-goal attempts and two extra points in Sunday's 20-7 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Bailey connected on tries from 27 and 50 yards, extending his streak to 10 straight field goals, although he missed a pair of extra points during that stretch. Overall, the 31-year-old has been superb this year, converting 18 of 20 attempts (90 percent), and he'll look to keep it rolling on the road in Week 15 against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Bailey converted from 47 yards on his field goal but went wide left on his final extra-point effort, leaving the Vikings behind by four at a crucial time in the fourth quarter. Through 12 games, Bailey has now compiled 81 points, placing 15th among kickers league-wide.

  • Limited by game script

    Bailey made all three extra-point attempts during Sunday's 27-23 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Bailey's upside was capped due to game script Week 11, as the Vikings trailed Denver 20-0 entering halftime. The offense was forced into comeback mode, focusing on touchdowns at the expense of field-goal tries. Bailey will next take the field Dec. 2 against the Seahawks.

  • Perfect versus Dallas

    Bailey made both field-goal tries and both extra-point attempts during Sunday's 28-24 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Bailey rebounded after missing an extra point Week 9, as he turned in a perfect showing versus his former team and accounted for eight of Minnesota's points on offense. The veteran is primed for a favorable matchup against Denver in Week 11.

    Bailey connected on a 29-yard field goal but only made two of three extra points in Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Bailey's missed extra point put a damper on Ameer Abdullah's 16-yard touchdown catch, but it didn't end up having a major impact on the final score. The veteran kicker was outshined by counterpart Harrison Butker, who drilled four field goals -- three over 40 yards -- including the game-winning kick. Bailey will look to avoid hiccups in Week 10 on the road against Dallas, where he spent the first seven years of his NFL career.
