Michael Dicksons doing some supplemental work in practice this week Rashan Gary Jersey , in case he has to make NFL history on Sunday. in case he has to fill in for kicker Sebastian Janikowski again this week.Dickson kicked off twice that way (one good, one bad), but Janikowski was able to recover from a back injury to handle field goals and extra points last week against the Chiefs. The hope is that Janikowski will be fine Darnell Savage Jr. Jersey , but Dickson is working on the mechanics of the play in case hes needed.I was freaking out a bit because I have never really hit a drop-kick field goal with like the protection and everything, Dickson said, via Bob Condotta of the . So we kind of worked on that [Wednesday in practice] and got used to it so I feel a little bit more comfortable now with that. Only really hit them messing around in warmups and during my kickoffs [before].No one has drop-kicked a field goal since at least 1941 according to league records, though Patriots quarterback Doug Flutie drop-kicked an extra point in 2006. Dickson has fooled around with it in pre-game warmups Elgton Jenkins Jersey , and said he has hit one from 60 yards away. But that was on his own, without having to catch a snap or face a rush.Were still kind of working through that, Dickson said. When we went out there we were going to do about 10 yards and try to keep the same kick depth [as a field goal]. But Im kind of messing around with doing maybe a punt depth so it would give a little more time to spin the laces and get the laces right. Its a slower get off time because youve got to drop it and then wait for it to bounce and then kick it. Just trying to see what works best.Dickson has used his Australian rugby background to learn how to punt from different angles, and has proven to be a weapon in his own right as a rookie. And while no one wishes ill on Janikowski Jace Sternberger Jersey , it would be fascinating to see Dickson try to score in a way most of us have never seen. Another offseason, another limited presence from Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.Yes, Brady isnt expected to show up when the defending Super Bowl champions return to work on Monday. Last year, he did the same thing. And it all worked out fairly well.Ian Rapoport of NFL Media suggests that Brady may bulk up for his 20th season Dexter Williams Jersey , before which hell turn 42. If Brady does that, hell largely if not exclusively be doing it on his own, working out away from the team.Bradys recent habit of skipping the offseason program seems to be part of the compromise he has reached with his wife, who seemed to be nudging him to retire two years ago Rock Ya-Sin Jersey , when she ultimately went public with concerns about concussions he has suffered. Brady now seems to have license to play as long as he wants, as long as he treats the voluntary offseason program as mostly voluntary.And with Brady openly wondering how to get from six Super Bowl wins to 15 (in honor of Tiger Woods fifteenth major title), Brady may keep playing for a while.
