Rodrigo Blankenship’s three-year run with the Indianapolis Colts came to an abrupt end this week after missing a potential game-winning field goal in a 20-20 overtime game against the Houston Texans on Sunday. 

On Tuesday, he was released. On Wednesday, Blankenship was seen practicing by himself.

Blankenship missed the 42-yard field goal that would have given the Colts a Week 1 victory, but he had uglier moments in the game, including two kickoffs that went out of bounds, that ultimately led to his dismissal. 

Before Tuesday’s announcement, head coach Frank Reich seemed to suggest that the Colts weren’t rushing into any decision.

"In my mind, he’s our kicker," Reich said after the game, via the Indianapolis Star.  "We go back, and everybody gets evaluated. Coaches, players, we all get evaluated. If I’ve learned one thing over the years, it’s: Don’t rush into those kinds of decisions. Let (general manager) Chris (Ballard) and I get a chance to talk about, everybody gets evaluated."

Blankenship will be replaced by either Chase McLaughlin or Lucas Havrisik on Sunday in Jacksonville. The two kickers were signed to the practice squad and will spend this week fighting for the job.

Blankenship won the kicking job as an undrafted rookie out of Georgia in 2020, but after scoring 139 points in a strong rookie season, he struggled.

A hip injury would sideline him for much of the 2021 season. Blankenship missed three of 14 field-goal attempts and an extra point in five games before finishing the season on injured reserve.
