INDIANAPOLIS -- Chicago Bears kicker Roberto Aguayo was only 2 years old when Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri made his NFL debut with the New England Patriots in 1996.
Vinatieri's perseverance and commitment has him headed into his 22nd season in the league while playing with just two teams. Aguayo is in just his second season and he's already on his second team after he was released last week by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the team that selected him the second round in 2016.
Vinatieri, who is currently third on the NFL's all-time scoring list with 2,376 points, has never met or talked to Aguayo, but he believes he has the talent to make it in the NFL.
