ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) – Sebastian Janikowski has seen plenty of changes on the Oakland Raiders in his 13 years in the NFL.
He has played for eight head coaches, seven special teams coordinators and with countless teammates since entering the NFL in 2000 as the first kicker taken in the first round of the draft in 21 years.
The one constant through all the turnover and turmoil was Janikowski’s kicking partner and close friend Shane Lechler. Lechler also entered the NFL in 2000 and served as the Raiders punter and Janikowski’s holder until leaving this offseason as a free agent for Houston.
So Janikowski heads into his 14th season in Oakland and final one on this contract with a bit of uncertainty.
