Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee has revealed that he would like to become the club's kicker should Adam Vinatieri not return to the team.

McAfee signed a new five-year deal with the club earlier this week, and with Vinatieri poised to become a free agent, he has admitted that he would like to be in the position to fill both roles on special teams.

"It was definitely brought up and that was kind of the thing I think that was most talked about," McAfee told the club's official website.

"Who knows what's going to happen with Vinatieri? If he gets re-signed, if he wants to get re-signed, however long he wants to play, I just wanted to know whenever that guy is done, whenever that Hall-of-Fame career is over, that I just want a fair shake in kicking as well."

McAfee joined the Colts in the 2009 season.
