Former NFL Agent and Executive Says Legendary Kicker Nearly Chose Packers Over Colts

Can you imagine the last 14 years of Adam Vinatieri's career in a uniform other than the blue and white of the Indianapolis Colts?

According to a recent report from Sports Illustrated's Andrew Brandt - a former NFL executive and league agent - the future Hall of Fame kicker nearly signed elsewhere in 2006 before inking a deal with the Colts.

Brandt writes that Vinatieri nearly chose the Green Bay Packers over the Colts in free agency in 2006, changing his mind late in the process to come to terms with Indianapolis.

What you may not know about Adam is that he was this close to becoming a Packer.
