Vikings rookie Will Reichard makes bold choice in regards to his appearance

The Minnesota Vikings’ 2024 NFL Draft class is likely to leave a lasting impact on the franchise. On both sides of the ball, Dallas Turner and J.J. McCarthy are playmakers who will lead the franchise.

Not to be forgotten, though, is that they have Will “The Thrill” Reichard as their new kicker on special teams.

During his press availability this week, Special Team Coordinator Matt Daniels told the media some interesting facts about the rookie kicker. The most interesting being that he gets a haircut before the season and doesn’t get another one until he misses a kick.

He was already a fan favorite thanks to the Vikings’ social media team, but he is somehow earning more fans by the week.

Through two weeks of the 2024 season, Reichard is 3-for-3 on field goal attempts this year with his longest coming from 39 yards out. He is also 6-for-6 on extra points heading into Week 3.
