Collecting His 12th Jersey

Kicker Bill Cundiff is a great example of perseverance. He was just signed by the Jets to compete for a roster spot. It was his 19th contract with twelve different teams.

His transactions are difficult to follow at times. He was signed by the Cowboys as an undrafted player in 2002. From there he went to Tampa Bay, Green Bay, New Orleans, Atlanta, Kansas City, Detroit, Cleveland, Baltimore, Washington, San Francisco and finally to the Jets.

He has often been signed as a replacement. His constant releases resulted him being out of the league in 2007 and 2008. Pats fans will always remember him for missing a 32 yard field goal in the AFC Championship game during the 2011 playoffs. It sealed a win over the Ravens and sent the team to the Super Bowl.
