Michael Badgley: Cut loose by Colts
The Colts waived Badgley on Tuesday, Amanda Foster of the team's official site reports.
Badgley's dismissal comes as no real surprise after special teams coordinator Brian Mason told the media earlier Tuesday that the Colts would be evaluating "all kicker options that [they] possibly have" this week. Mason's comments came just two days after Badgley missed his third extra-point try in seven games in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans. Overall, Badgley went 18-for-21 on point-after attempts and 10-for-11 on field goals with the Colts after Spencer Shrader sustained a season-ending knee injury. Indy auditioned a number of kickers Tuesday and will sign a replacement for Badgley ahead of Sunday's game in Jacksonville.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Converts only FGA in loss
Badgley made his only field-goal try and went 1-for-2 on PATs in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans.
Badgley was able to convert a 42-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, extending his streak to seven straight appearances with a field-goal make. The kicker did, however, miss his first extra-point try of the day, connecting with the left upright in the first quarter. The miss would come back to hurt Indianapolis late in the game, forcing the team to go for it on fourth-and-9 from Houston's 31 yard line with less than two minutes remaining in regulation, and ultimately the team turned the ball over on downs. Badgley has now gone 10-for-11 on field-goal attempts, including 2-for-3 from 50-plus yards, over seven contests with the Colts this year.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Makes four kicks in Week 12 loss
Badgley made both of his field-goal tries and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to the Chiefs.
Coming off a Week 10 game in Berlin in which he missed a pair of kicks, Sunday marked a strong rebound game for Badgley, who has now made nine of 11 field-goal tries and 17 of 19 extra-point attempts in six games with the Colts this season.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Misses two kicks Week 10
Badgley went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 1-for-2 on extra-point tries during the Colts' 31-25 overtime win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Badgley missed his first PAT in the first quarter before his 53-yard field-goal attempt early in the second quarter fell short. He made up for those two missed kicks by knocking through field goals from 34 and 44 yards in the fourth quarter, the latter of which tied things up at 25-25 to send the game to overtime. Badgley is now 7-for-8 on field-goal attempts and 15-for-17 on extra-point tries through five regular-season games.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Makes four kicks in Week 9 loss
Badgley made both of his field-goal attempts and his two extra-point tries during the Colts' 27-20 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Badgley connected on field goals from 52 and 53 yards in the fourth quarter as the Colts attempted to battle back from a 17-point deficit. His two makes from 50-plus yards matches a career high he set in 2020 and 2022 with the Chargers and Lions, respectively. Since replacing Spencer Shrader (knee), Badgley has made all five of his field-goal attempts and has gone 14-for-15 on extra-point tries across four regular-season games.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Doesn't miss Sunday
Badgley went a perfect 1-for-1 on field-goal attempts and 5-for-5 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 38-14 win over the Titans.
The kicker hit a 43-yarder in the first quarter and then just rode his high-scoring offense to five more points throughout the rest of the game. Since replacing Spencer Shrader, who is out for the season with a knee injury, Badgley has made at least three extra points in all three games he's played in, and he has only missed once, going 12-of-13 on extra points and 3-for-3 on field goals. The kicker job on one of the league's best offenses should be his for the foreseeable future.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Misses extra point Sunday
Badgley went 1-for-1 on field-goal tries and 3-for-4 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers.
The kicker's miss came after Indianapolis scored on its first drive of the game. After that, he did make every kick, including a 36-yard field goal in the second quarter that put the Colts up by 20. In two games since replacing the injured Spencer Shrader (knee), who is out for the season, Badgley is 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and 7-for-8 on extra-point attempts, which should be good enough to help him keep the job for another week.

Colts' Michael Badgley: Perfect in season debut
Badgley made his only field-goal attempt and went 4-for-4 on PATs in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Cardinals.
Badgley was signed by the Colts earlier in the week, replacing Spencer Shrader (knee) as the team's starting kicker after Shrader was placed on injured reserve with a season-ending knee injury. Badgley made a 45-yard field goal in the third quarter, tying up the game at 17-17. The kicker is familiar with Lucas Oil Stadium, having gone 18-for-21 on field-goal tries over 12 games with Indianapolis in 2021, and he'll look to build off of his Week 6 performance moving forward.

Colts' Michael Badgley: New kicker in Indy
Badgley agreed to a contract with the Colts on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
With Spencer Shrader (knee) suffering a season-ending injury in Sunday's 40-6 win over the Raiders, the Colts worked out eight kickers Tuesday. Badgley ultimately emerged from the tryout with a contract, and he'll now have the opportunity to kick for a Colts squad that has fielded a surprisingly prolific offense through the first five weeks. Despite having his day cut short by the injury in Week 5, Shrader had racked up an NFL-high 53 points while knocking down 13 of 14 field-goal tries on the season. With a career 82.4 percent success rate on field goals over stops with five different teams in his career, Badgley can't be counted on to match the accuracy Shrader had displayed, but the 30-year-old should at least benefit from playing his home games indoors. Badgley looks like a worthy pickup in fantasy leagues for managers seeking a fill-in for Shrader or a replacement for a kicker who is on bye or isn't tethered to as formidable of an offense as Indianapolis.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Entering free agency healthy
Detroit cleared Badgley from the groin injury that landed him on the injured reserve list for the entire 2024 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Badgley suffered a torn hamstring during the first week of training camp last year, so his last playing sample comes from 2023, when over four games he made all four of his field-goal tries and 13 of his 15 extra-point attempts. Jake Bates had an impressive rookie campaign with the Lions in 2024, so Badgley will likely be looking for a new team in 2025.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Moves to IR
The Lions placed Badgley (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday.
Badgley tore his hamstring during practice Thursday and will be out for the entire 2024 campaign. The veteran was slated to compete for the opportunity to be Detroit's kicker for the upcoming campaign, so the team will likely bring another kicker into training camp to push Jake Bates for the role. Bates was signed by the Lions in June after a record-setting performance in the UFL this spring, but he's yet to take a snap in the NFL.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Suffers season-ending injury
Badgley suffered a season-ending hamstring injury during Thursday's practice, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
A torn hamstring during the first week of training camp will end Badgley's season before it really began, with the Lions reportedly planning to place him on injured reserve in the coming days. Jake Bates, a 2023 UDFA and breakout performer with the UFL's Michigan Panthers this past spring, is left as the only kicker on the roster, but it presumably won't be long before the team brings in some competition. Whoever ends up winning the job could have fantasy value even if they're inexperienced, as the Lions had one of the better offenses in the league last season and return most of their key pieces for 2024.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Re-signs with Lions
Badgley is re-signing with the Lions on a one-year contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Badgley spent much of 2023 on Detroit's practice squad before eventually replacing a struggling Riley Patterson for the final four games of the regular season and the playoffs. Badgley converted each of his seven field-goal attempts and 24 of 26 PATs after taking over, but he'll likely have to compete with Patterson or another kicker to win the job in 2024.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Converts four field goals in 2023
Badgley converted four of four field-goal attempts and 13 of 15 PATs over four games in 2023.
Once Detroit lost patience with Riley Patterson after missing two PATs in three games, Badgley was brought in with mixed results. Not only did he miss two PATs in his four regular-season games, the strong-legged kicker only converted one field goal from over 40 yards over this stretch with just one more from at least this range over three postseason games. Now set to become an unrestricted free agent, Badgley is not locked in as Detroit's starting kicker entering the 2024 campaign.

Lions' Michael Badgley: Another missed PAT
Badgley converted his lone field-goal attempt and three of four PATs during Sunday's 30-20 win over the Vikings.
While Badgley remains perfect on field-goal tries this year, he missed an extra-point attempt for the second time in three weeks. The Miami (Fla.) product thus finishes the regular season with four field goals and 12 PATs in four games for Detroit -- numbers that reflect the Lions' success in ending drives with touchdowns down the stretch. Badgley will look to tack on more production against the Rams in the NFC wild card round.
