Reverts to practice squad Badgley reverted to the Bills' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Badgley was brought up from the practice squad to serve as the Bills' kicker against the Browns on Sunday due to the absences of Matt Prater (quadriceps) and Tyler Bass (left hip/groin - IR). He made his lone field-goal attempt from 41 yards and went 2-for-3 on extra-point tries during the 23-20 win. If Prater is unable to progress enough in his recovery, Badgley could be called upon to kick for the Bills this Sunday against the Eagles.

He converted on a 41-yard field-goal try late in the third quarter that gave Buffalo a 13-point lead.

Badgley could serve as Buffalo's top kicker again in the Week 17 matchup against the Eagles is Prater remains sidelined.

Elevated for Week 16 The Bills have elevated Badgley from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact Badgley is set to serve as Buffalo's starting kicker for Week 16 with Matt Prater (quadriceps) ruled out and Tyler Bass (hip) out for the season. Given that Prater is considered week-to-week, Badgley will have a chance to secure a multi-game role as the Bills' fill-in kicker as long as he's able to demonstrate accuracy versus Cleveland on Sunday.

Finds opportunity in Buffalo The Bills signed Badgley to their practice squad Tuesday.

Impact With Tyler Bass (hip) out for the season and with head coach Sean McDermott ruling out Matt Prater (quadriceps) for Week 16, the Bills were in need of a kicker for Sunday's game in Cleveland. The team held a tryout Tuesday featuring Badgley and Matthew Wright, and the former ultimately emerged from the workout with a contract. Since Prater is being viewed as week-to-week, Buffalo could still look to add Wright or another kicker to its practice squad in the coming days, but look for Badgley to get elevated to the roster ahead of Sunday's contest. Badgley most recently served as the Colts' kicker for seven games earlier this season, converting 10 of 11 field-goal tries and 18 of 21 extra-point attempts.

Colts will enter key AFC South matchup against Jags with new kicker after cutting Badgley

The Indianapolis Colts have waived Michael Badgley, assuring they will have a new kicker in place for Sunday’s key AFC South game at Jacksonville

DECEMBER 2 • Associated Press

Cut loose by Colts The Colts waived Badgley on Tuesday, Amanda Foster of the team's official site reports.

Impact Badgley's dismissal comes as no real surprise after special teams coordinator Brian Mason told the media earlier Tuesday that the Colts would be evaluating "all kicker options that [they] possibly have" this week. Mason's comments came just two days after Badgley missed his third extra-point try in seven games in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans. Overall, Badgley went 18-for-21 on point-after attempts and 10 for 11 on field goals upon joining the Colts in Week 6 after Spencer Shrader sustained a season-ending knee injury. The Colts auditioned a number of kickers Tuesday and will sign a replacement for Badgley ahead of Sunday's game in Jacksonville.

Converts only FGA in loss Badgley made his only field-goal try and went 1-for-2 on PATs in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans.

Impact Badgley was able to convert a 42-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, extending his streak to seven straight appearances with a field-goal make. The kicker did however miss his first extra-point try of the day, connecting with the left upright in the first quarter. The miss would come back to hurt Indianapolis late in the game, forcing the team to go for it on fourth-and-9 from Houston's 31 yard line with less than two minutes remaining in regulation, ultimately turning the ball over on downs. Badgley has now gone 10-for-11 on field-goal attempts, including 2-for-3 from 50-plus yards, over seven contests with the Colts this year.
