Baby-faced Vikings kicker Will Reichard has trouble getting past NFL security
- Reichard has faced repeated NFL security checks because he doesn’t look like a typical football player.
- In London, security initially wouldn’t let Reichard onto the field during a Vikings-Browns game.
- Reichard finished the season 33 of 35 on field goals, with two misses generating chatter.
- A second miss was a 53-yard attempt that appeared to graze the turf before contact.
- Minnesota drafted Reichard 203rd overall in 2024 as the team’s lone kicker with elite accuracy in 2025.
- Andrew DePaola earned Second Team All-Pro, extending a four-season sequence of honors by a Viking long snapper.
- DePaola earned First Team All-Pro in 2022 and 2024, with Second Team honors in 2023.
- Vikings coverage includes references to retirement messages and season awards for context.
- Joe Nelson has over two decades of Minnesota sports reporting with ties to KFAN-FM 100.3.
