Adam Vinatieri injured

NFL.com's Adam Schefter is reporting that kicker Adam Vinatieri is expected to miss about a month with his sprained ankle. Schefter says that "Vinatieri is expected to miss Indianapolis' final two preseason games to rest the ankle he sprained while running during practice last week. He is expected to return for the Colts' Sunday night regular-season opener against the Giants in the Manning Brothers Bowl... But by that time, Vinatieri will have been sidelined nearly a month with his sprained ankle, an indication that his ankle injury was more serious than Colts fans knew."

Think this ankle injury will become a regular-season issue for Vinatieri, or will he really be good for the opener?

Uh oh, courtesy of RotoWire,

"NFL.com's Adam Schefter reports Adam Vinatieri's ankle may be broken.
The Colts deny it, but Vinatieri's ankle is reportedly severely injured and a teammate close to the kicker says Vinatieri could miss the early part of the season. Because he's a kicker, Vinatieri should be removed from draft boards until his status becomes more clear. Aug. 31 - 12:06 am et"

That would be terrible for the Colts. Who do they have to kick in his place?
