The Buffalo Bills are making a strategic move to bolster their kicking unit. They've signed kicker Michael Badgley to the practice squad, as announced on Tuesday. This move comes in response to the recent injury to kicker Matt Prater, who is expected to be out for an extended period. Badgley, a reliable and consistent kicker, has an impressive track record. Since the 2021 season, he has successfully converted 56 out of 65 field goal attempts, achieving an 86% success rate. His performance this season with the Colts is equally impressive, as he made 10 out of 11 field goal attempts, including a perfect 4 out of 4 on 40-49-yard attempts and 2 out of 3 on 50-59-yard attempts. The Bills' decision to add Badgley to the practice squad is a smart move, ensuring they have a capable kicker ready to step in if needed. With Prater's injury, the team is taking proactive measures to maintain their kicking prowess and overall competitiveness.
